|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Best win and now 2 top tier wins Best dline since 2017 Clemson |
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Good win, don’t love the offense but definitely the most talented overall defensive unit |
| 3 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
High powered offense, great eye test, played nobody |
| 4 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
They haven’t rlly played anyone |
| 5 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Their only sin is losing to Texas on the road at night, they’re still top 5 |
| 6 |
Florida Gators
|
The second best win in the country, awesome offense, incredibly well coached |
| 7 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
That was ugly, I feel weird putting them this high |
| 8 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Not the best loss but a little bit of a hangover and a ton of injury problems |
| 9 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
Haven’t watched them much tbh, but good backs and a decent defense, good win over Houston and they’re overall solid everywhere, hopefully Hammond can actually keep it together bc they’re shaky there |
| 10 |
LSU Tigers
|
The injuries are rlly mounting, looking for a bye week for sure. I would like to say good bounce back win but Elmo may be losing his job with how bad a&m is |
| 11 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Haven’t really played anyone, not a fan of the defense, not sure what they’ll look like against the teams ahead of them |
| 12 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
Taylor is awesome, there are limits to what they will be able to do |
| 13 |
BYU Cougars
|
Played nobody and unfortunately their qb wears a funky number but there’s not rlly a good reason to put them lower |
| 14 |
Utah Utes
|
2 qbs is so cool |
| 15 |
Virginia Tech Hokies
|
Idk I love James Franklin |
| 16 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Brandon was rough and that was a horrible showing for the oline but there’s rlly no reason to believe 13-16 isn’t where they will live this season |
| 17 |
Missouri Tigers
|
Losing that game is not a major blemish, ms st is on fire and Simmons looked the part, mizzu will have some big wins this year |
| 18 |
Houston Cougars
|
Yeah sure why not |
| 19 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
Great win this weekend and week one is looking like a fluke, also the Oregon win looks much better now |
| 20 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Raiola is the better player sorry, Moore has been bad and I hope he’s okay but going back to Moore would be dumb |
| 21 |
USC Trojans
|
Riley has got to get away from so-cal |
| 22 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
I can’t say I love this team but man they are scrappy and find a way to win, I don’t think they’re the best coached, most talented, more disciplined, faster, stronger, better, pretty much anything. However they’re fining wins and that’s what matters |
| 23 |
Louisville Cardinals
|
Awful performance completely unacceptable for a team that has top 10 potential, they have to be better |
| 24 |
SMU Mustangs
|
Jennings may have a turnover problem |
| 25 |
Virginia Cavaliers
|
Idk I guess |
