| ColombianInIowa24 | 1 | Unsurprisingly, the model overreacted when I told it that they beat Notre Dame. Still... they probably deserved to be ranked? |

| jalexjsmithj | 3 | Per resume… on the road in South Bend is the 3rd best win in the country. Honestly, it could debatably be 2nd. |

| Zloggt | 22 | HUSKIES!!!! Them being on a bye can either be their saving grace (in that it protects them from dropping because they can’t lose), or the hurting factor (in that people punish them because of their inactivity)…hopefully, the others will let them stay on… |

| Due_Connection179 | 24 | Last Week - NR // W 54 - 15 vs Eastern Illinois // W 16 - 14 at #7 Notre Dame It looked like Notre Dame's game plan was "I should be better no matter what, so let me make my new QB look good today" and it completely backfired. |

| bretticus33 | 25 | Didn't think a MAC team would be my 2nd highest G5 team but here we are. Congrats to the Huskies on the best G5 win of the season (so far at least) which will be a huge point for them if they can keep it up this season and be in the CFP hunt |

| throwaway_6786 | 18 | How could you not be romantic about college football? NIU, a fairly small G5 program with a coach that went to said school faces a top-10 team that's also one of the most recognizable programs in all of sports, in their house, as a near 30-point underdog, and wins. Make no mistake though, this wasn't just a magical moment for the Huskies; they looked really solid and took advantage of ND weaknesses to make plays and put up points. As far as I'm concerned, this is one of the best wins for any team so far this season, so NIU has earned the #18 rank for now. Of course, if ND struggles from here, NIU will have to find other ways to stay in the rankings (namely, winning games). |

| _TGT7 | 22 | NEW, Northern Illinois has to be one of the last teams I would’ve expected to rank this season. They have one of the strongest wins in the country though, overcome a questionable call to do it, and beat a team that has their own signature win. Probably a fluke, but lets see if they can make it continue |
