Euphoric_Relative_13 1 Ohio State is now 9-0, and since playing the then-No. 1 team in the country, they have won every game by at least three scores. And Texas is "back" (I hate saying that), so with Indiana's close wins, they should stay No. 1

Jerrywelfare 1 There's certainly an argument for #2 in favor of A&M, but with how Indiana performed against Penn State vs how Ohio State did...I'm comfortable leaving the reining national champs at #1.

Doogitywoogity 3 This is a great team, they could easily be the best team in the country, but they don’t exactly have the pedigree of the two above them. Wins over texas and Minnesota are, at least right now, less impressive than A&Ms wins over ND and Mizzou or Indiana’s wins over Oregon and Iowa.
