Ballot Type: Human
Submitted: Oct. 5, 2026, 2:44 p.m.
Overall Rationale: Head-to-head matchups, strength of schedule, point margins
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Didn't play, they stay #1 for now. Texas looks good but I could see them losing this spot soon. |
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Handled Vandy, very close to Texas still but haven't played anyone legit yet. |
| 3 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Struggled against UNC for a minute but still won by more than a score. |
| 4 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
Beat an Iowa team with a good defense. That game could've been really bad for Ohio State but they handled Iowa. |
| 5 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Crushed a struggling Clemson. Still Top 5 to me. |
| 6 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
+1 Dismantled Mississippi State. Both offense and defense looked great in that game. Alabama could be a bigger contender than we thought. |
| 7 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
-1 Indiana fell not because of their game but because of what Alabama did. I still have that game against Northwestern in my mind, even though I believe NW is a ranked school. |
| 8 |
BYU Cougars
|
+1 Maybe a little bit closer than it should've been with TCU, but games within your conference can be tough. Defense looked really good, BYU gets to move up a spot. |
| 9 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
|
| 10 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Didn't play this week. Looked good in win against USC. Because of what’s going on in the SEC, they’re back in the top 10 |
