Rank	Team	Reason
1	Miami Hurricanes
2	Indiana Hoosiers
3	Ole Miss Rebels
4	Ohio State Buckeyes
5	USF Bulls
6	Texas A&M Aggies
7	LSU Tigers
8	Texas Tech Red Raiders
9	Illinois Fighting Illini
10	Washington Huskies
11	North Texas Mean Green
12	Tulane Green Wave
13	Notre Dame Fighting Irish
14	Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets
15	USC Trojans
16	Utah Utes
17	Florida Gators	Normally there's also a clause about needing teams to be over .500, but I made an exception here because of how many 1-loss teams are down the chain from Florida while still being above the tangle of teams with transitive losses to teams they've beaten.
18	Washington State Cougars
19	Texas Longhorns
20	Oregon Ducks
21	Oklahoma Sooners
22	Memphis Tigers
23	Michigan Wolverines
24	BYU Cougars	Nope, still no "quality wins" to speak of. Arizona would've been one, but Colorado took care of that.
25	Duke Blue Devils
