| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Propped up by the defense and big win over OSU. Have a sneaking suspicion the offense will let them down. |
| 2 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Juggernaut against cupcakes (sorry Sooners). Excited to see them against Bama. |
| 3 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Alabama scary again. Rumors of Kalen’s demise premature. |
| 4 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
Mensah locks up September Heisman. |
| 5 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Defense showing cracks? |
| 6 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Close win against Northwestern looking better in hindsight. In trouble against Huskers? |
| 7 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
I fear we do not appreciate how good Jeremiah Smith is. |
| 8 |
Utah Utes
|
I don’t see a loss on their schedule until B12 championship. |
| 9 |
BYU Cougars
|
Passing for 66 yards not a great look. Defense will keep them hanging around ND in a few weeks. |
| 10 |
Oregon Ducks
|
Toughest Ducks schedule ever? Huge test against the running Chesneys this weekend. |
| 11 |
UCLA Bruins
|
Looking excellent against mid competition. Running the ball and eating clock against UO is always the key to success. |
| 12 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
No shame in getting clobbered by Bama. Wins against Mizzou and Minnesota looking better. |
| 13 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Not sure what the offensive identity is… shouldn’t have issues with hogs this weekend. |
| 14 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
Lower on TTU than others. Having watched several games, I find them uninspiring. |
| 15 |
Missouri Tigers
|
Sorry for unranking you :( I have learned the error of my ways. |
| 16 |
Florida Gators
|
You good? Seems like a different team got off the bus in Columbia. |
| 17 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
Gauntlet coming soon… |
| 18 |
LSU Tigers
|
Joe Burrow-lite runs a smooth offense. |
| 19 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
That’s the Iowa we know and love! |
| 20 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
Yeehaw! Tulsa game will haunt them, but this team can definitely overcome. |
| 21 |
Boise State Broncos
|
Bold prediction - they don’t have a game within 1 score the rest of the way. |
| 22 |
USC Trojans
|
How dare you make me root for UW. |
| 23 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
Fresh off his cameo in Lanterns, Rhule’s boys look mighty good. Dare we say upset over Hoosiers? |
| 24 |
Northwestern Wildcats
|
Wing T? Say less - I’m in. |
| 25 |
Pittsburgh Panthers
|
Was the FG good? Who cares? Celebrate being ranked for a little while longer. |
