Submitted: Nov. 3, 2024, 11:04 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Same as last week.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Ducks keeping their record clean, and staying undefeated. |
| 2 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Indiana keeps blowing teams out, and I'm not the AP. I give credit where it's due. |
| 3 |
BYU Cougars
|
BYU one of just five(four really) undefeateds remaining, and representing the XII well. |
| 4 |
Army West Point
|
Army is going to get a chance to prove themselves against ND soon. Hopefully they don't mess it up like the MIDshipmen. |
| 5 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Miami, you're still undefeated? Impressive win, and good job gaining back some trust. |
| 6 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Ohio State moves up big-time, after eeking it out against... |
| 7 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
Penn State, who falls big-time in turn. |
| 8 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
The Irish stay climbing the polls. |
| 9 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Boise State, YOU are a top 10 team! |
| 10 |
SMU Mustangs
|
And SMU, so are you! |
| 11 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Y'all gotta be trying to lose, I have no idea how that's going on. |
| 12 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Tennessee moving up into what would be playoff position if I were in charge. |
| 13 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Texas is just behind them, might be there before long. |
| 14 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
Ouch. I had faith in you, I did. The Cyclones can rebuild, but it's a long way up. |
| 15 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
Double the sentiment above for Pitt, they got trashed. |
| 16 |
Washington State Cougars
|
Especially considering their schedule, Wazzu could be in playoff position if they win out. |
| 17 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
Join the ISU/Pitt club. |
| 18 |
LSU Tigers
|
Not great for LSU that A&M lost, but a win against Bama next week could kick them out of the polls, and move LSU far up them. |
| 19 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Be very careful with our quality loss, Alabama. |
| 20 |
Kansas State Wildcats
|
Bad week for the XII. |
| 21 |
Syracuse Orange
|
The Orange could be real contenders in the ACC, if they get more consistent. |
| 22 |
UNLV Rebels
|
Nice steady movement from the Rebels. |
| 23 |
Minnesota Golden Gophers
|
Congrats on being ranked! Please stay ranked so we can beat you and maybe get ranked too! |
| 24 |
Illinois Fighting Illini
|
Tough loss, but the Illini won't be penalized too much for it against a decent Golden Gophers team. |
| 25 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
Oh. My. God. That was a war crime. |
