Rank | Team | Reason |
---|---|---|
1 | Ohio State Buckeyes | Natty. All double digit wins in the playoffs. |
2 | Oregon Ducks | Best record in football. Beat two of the current top five. |
3 | Notre Dame Fighting Irish | Fantastic year for the Irish. |
4 | Penn State Nittany Lions | Best 3 losses possible. |
5 | Texas Longhorns | Solid team |
6 | Georgia Bulldogs | |
7 | Indiana Hoosiers | Only 2 losses are to the top two. |

9 | Boise State Broncos | |
10 | Arizona State Sun Devils | What a great bowl game. |
11 | Tennessee Volunteers | |

20 | Army West Point | |
21 | Memphis Tigers | |
22 | Missouri Tigers | |
23 | UNLV Rebels | |
24 | Michigan Wolverines | Can't be behind Bama after that. Getting a lot of bump for The Game. |
25 | Alabama Crimson Tide |
