|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Oregon Ducks

Haven't really beaten anyone in hindsight but Washington may have been their best win. 1 loss to #2 by 1 score LW: 11 |
| 10 |
Ole Miss Rebels

Gotta be ahead of UGA after such a controlling performance. Loss to Kentucky is bad but dominant win over South Carolina and 2 ranked wins. LW: 17 |
