| Doogitywoogity | 6 | A win over this Kansas squad is great, but an injury to their QB is not. That’s frankly a large reason I didn’t move them up over Oregon. They especially don’t need this before going to play at Arizona State, who is still a good squad despite their drop from the rankings. It seems the status of their QB is not totally known but not terrible, so maybe their defense can keep them in contention. It is quite concerning how often he seems to be getting injured, and given they have a serviceable if not quite good backup QB from what I can tell, they should really try and rest him to keep from further aggravating whatever injury is really causing issues here. |

| Jerrywelfare | 6 | Sure, their schedule leaves a lot to be desired. But the Red Raiders are putting everyone they play to bed, decisively. Their lowest margin of victory is 14 points, both in-conference away games; the combined record of those two teams is 10-2...with the 2 losses both coming from Texas Tech. |

| nw____ | 6 | Their only win that I’d consider a good one is @Utah, and that’s a really solid W in one of the toughest road environments in the sport. I consider Kansas an above average win, and it’s possible I might see @Houston as one, too. Good showings against ASU and possibly BYU will be very important for their resume, but it’s not their fault they can’t play themselves. |
