Past the top 14 I lose a lot of confidence. |

Would definitely have liked to see a better run game, but we do still have some reason to be happy and it's a rivalry win. I'll take it, but Tennessee jumps |

I'll be honest I don't know anything about this team but I'll trust that everyone else has a good point here. |
| 23 |
Arizona Wildcats

There is an argument that teams like Oregon, Oklahoma, Michigan, and the teams that beat them should sit back here in the bubble. I'm just not ready to do that. Michigan's defense will keep them tough but they are just not very good and I think a lot of teams will beat them. Oklahoma didn't get the full form Mateer I was hoping to see again. Tulsa didn't look good against Sam Houston. I'll let them sort it out some more before being reintroduced. I prefer the Arizona's in their quality losses. |

Arizona State Sun Devils

Tied through 3 quarters on a top ten team. I'm calling that good |
