Doogitywoogity 5 I think the biggest thing is we need to see Allar step up. If he doesn’t prove himself vs Oregon I’ll likely drop this team quite a bit. If he performs decently but they still lose they’ll still be decently ranked.

Euphoric_Relative_13 6 They have beaten three teams soundly, but the fact that they didn't demolish any of them means it doesn't prove anything. I kinda want to keep them top 5 so that the next week is a top 5 matchup, but I don't think they have deserved it so far.

goodnames679 7 Another team benefiting from things not being fully results-based yet. I fully expect their defense to be nasty this year and their offense to be pretty damn good, but it's hard to tell how good until they get some more games in against top teams.

Isthmus11 13 3-0, best win 34-0 over FIU. Best win says it all, PSU has the weakest OOC schedule I have seen from them in recent memory and the idea of Drew Allar and the OL competing against a real defense is setting off some alarm bells in my head. I am basically in wait and see mode for the Oregon game but this roster is insanely talented and should be looking better than this, the defense once again looks legit though and might keep them in some big games.
