Submitted: Oct. 11, 2026, 1:20 a.m.
Overall Rationale: What the playoffs would be if they started next week. In a "deserved" and "following the rules" way I guess.
| Rank | Team | Reason |
|---|---|---|
| 1 |
Georgia Bulldogs
|
Yep, best team now |
| 2 |
Miami Hurricanes
|
May be the only other complete team besides Georgia |
| 3 |
Notre Dame Fighting Irish
|
Easy schedule or not, they are blowing out teams |
| 4 |
BYU Cougars
|
Gameday in mormon town. |
| 5 |
Indiana Hoosiers
|
Either the BIG is deep, or Indiana is shaky, no idea what |
| 6 |
Utah Utes
|
That means no gameday for Utah BYU |
| 7 |
Texas Tech Red Raiders
|
People stopped talking about them, quick do something STUPID |
| 8 |
UCLA Bruins
|
Best UCLA team in 2 decades. Or will be exposed. Do not care, IN BOB WE TRUST! |
| 9 |
Texas Longhorns
|
Arch Manning got the Eli DERP in him |
| 10 |
Ohio State Buckeyes
|
That Quality Loss lost some shine, and UCLA beat Maryland on the road by more. Just saying. |
| 11 |
Alabama Crimson Tide
|
Big fall, but that is because I hate you. Also, things will sort themselves out eventually. |
| 12 |
James Madison Dukes
|
This is the "If playoffs" ranking, so James Madison would be the 12th seed, so, yeah. Also thanks for the HC! |
| 13 |
Wisconsin Badgers
|
Quality win for Notre Dame after all? |
| 14 |
Iowa Hawkeyes
|
Nice Bounce Back vs Washington |
| 15 |
Nebraska Cornhuskers
|
Ya BLEW IT! Now face Oregon in the "Who can bounce back" bowl |
| 16 |
Kentucky Wildcats
|
HAHAHAHAHA thanks for doing that to LSU |
| 17 |
Mississippi State Bulldogs
|
SEC self cannibalizing is fun |
| 18 |
Missouri Tigers
|
Actually deserves to be ranked. |
| 19 |
Northwestern Wildcats
|
Is NW good? No idea still. |
| 20 |
Tennessee Volunteers
|
Please shove Bama out of the CFB playoff please |
| 21 |
Ole Miss Rebels
|
HAHAHA LANE KIFFIN LOST AGAIN |
| 22 |
Oklahoma State Cowboys
|
Oh yeah, I should have ranked OSU before. Uh... here you go. |
| 23 |
Wake Forest Demon Deacons
|
I needed one last team to rank, so, uh, I guess you will do since everyone is asking for it. But you get to be above that mess down there. |
| 24 |
USC Trojans
|
How did you lose to THAT Oregon team?! |
| 25 |
Boise State Broncos
|
That Quality Loss took a massive hit. Still the best team in the G6? Maybe? Fresno State isn't. |
