| bgr308 | 1 | Alabama rolled through Arkansas State. This team has immense talent and coaching; they are my number one team until I'm shown otherwise. Their kicking issues might hurt them late in the season in close games though. |

| moistats_ | 1 | The disparity between Alabama and Clemson is getting larger with this blowout against Arkansas State (a projected top G5 team). Well done Tide! |

| TheFlyingBoat | 1 | Alabama is by far the best team in the league. They have a high powered offense that just dominated Louisville and Arkansas State. While these defenses may be pedestrian compared to what they'll inevitably face in the playoffs, this is still a scary precursor of what is to come. Then they have the classic, strong Alabama defense that hasn't skipped a beat despite losing elite talent like Minkah Fitzpatrick. I suppose having 5 stars riding the pine helps make this process easier. Easiest #1 pick ever. I don't understand any human who comes to a different conclusion based on what we've seen so far. |

| hokies220 | 5 | Had them #1, but decided that had too much personal bias in it because they're Bama with the new grading system they drop to just outside the playoff. |

| 311polo | 6 | Bama and Clemson to me are clearly the two best teams in the nation, but they haven't played anyone.  Louisville is a nice win which is why they are this high, but their resume isn't more impressive than those above.  Margin of victory is the only thing keeping them ahead of WVU, ND, and Arizona State. |

| Sproded | 8 | <!--td {border: 1px solid #ccc;}br {mso-data-placement:same-cell;}-->See notes above on why they aren't higher but basically beating Louisville by 37 doesn't make up for Louisville being worse than MSU or Northwestern. If Bama can win against better teams, they will move up quickly |
