budget_um Ballot for 2025 Week 10

Ballot Type: Human

Submitted: Oct. 26, 2025, 5:33 a.m.

Rank Team Reason
1 Indiana Hoosiers 8-windiana
2 Ohio State Buckeyes Bye week doesn't move the needle
3 Texas A&M Aggies Rolled ranked LSU
4 Oregon Ducks Handled the Badgers (but did give up points)
5 Alabama Crimson Tide A bit of a close shave with an SC team that's giving ranked opponents lots of fits
6 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets Crushed the orange
7 Georgia Bulldogs Bye week changes nothing
8 Vanderbilt Commodores Ranked win was good, but the 'Dores are in such rarified air it doesn't matter
9 BYU Cougars Undefeated, and Mizzou lost. Test next week
10 Ole Miss Rebels Beating OU changed OU's place more than the Rebs'
11 Tennessee Volunteers Move up with a resounding win
12 Miami Hurricanes Chopped the tree down
13 Notre Dame Fighting Irish Jump a few spots with some reshuffling higher up
14 Oklahoma Sooners Drop after losing to Ole Miss, but it is #10
15 Texas Tech Red Raiders Got right against OSU
16 USC Trojans Movement above them helps out on the bye
17 Virginia Cavaliers Yeah, they won, but it took OT against bad UNC
18 Louisville Cardinals Yeah, they have a loss, but it was in OT to the 'Hoos. Both them and UVA are a little tough this week because of a lack of common opponents with Miami. That will get clearer with time.
19 Michigan Wolverines Sparty was bitey, but Wolverines handled business. See also the below
20 Washington Huskies I mean, wow. Dismantled ranked Illinois. Unfortunately, Michigan choked them out just a week ago, so there's a ceiling.
21 Utah Utes Utes move up a spot after absolutely annihilating the Buffs. It's CU, but whew
22 Missouri Tigers Another close loss to a highly ranked team, but it's a) less close, and b) number 2
23 Texas Longhorns Needed OT against MSU (not alone in this by any means, but it's a bad look when they don't have a statement win)
24 Cincinnati Bearcats Beat the Bears
25 Memphis Tigers Return to the rankings after beating USF, but arguably the game proved USF shouldn't have been nearly that high. If LSU played A&M closer, they'd have gotten this spot.
