Overall Rationale: Strength of performance vs strength of opponent
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Tough to travel especially at Wisconsin. Gutted out a win but ugly. Proves that Oregon can be dragged down to the muck |
| 2 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
|
| 3 |
Texas Longhorns
|
A little shaky against a frisky Arkansas |
| 4 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
|
| 5 |
Penn State Nittany Lions
|
|
| 6 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
I don’t think they’re that good, yet here we are |
| 7 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
|
| 8 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Where was this Carson Beck all year? |
| 9 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
|
| 10 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Good team but not great |
| 11 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
|
| 12 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Scoreboard makes it look like this game was more in hand than it was |
| 13 |
SMU Mustangs
|
|
| 14 |
BYU Cougars
|
Karma caught up to the cougs. Like Miami, they got exposed |
| 15 |
Clemson Tigers
|
|
| 16 |
Texas A&M Aggies
|
|
| 17 |
Army West Point
|
If army beats notre dame, they deserve a chance at the playoff |
| 18 |
Colorado Buffaloes
|
Buffs have really put on a good performance this year. Defense gave up a decent amount of points to a bad Utah offense, but still good |
| 19 |
Tulane Green Wave
|
|
| 20 |
South Carolina Gamecocks
|
Cocks may be surging a little too late but they are dangerous |
| 21 |
Memphis Tigers
|
|
| 22 |
Iowa State Cyclones
|
|
| 23 |
Illinois Fighting Illini
|
|
| 24 |
UNLV Rebels
|
|
| 25 |
Arizona State Sun Devils
