Doogitywoogity 13 A team I’ve been a bit higher on than most throughout the season. Northwestern isn’t as bad as the past couple of seasons, it’s a solid win.

mountain_troop86 16 Model Rank: 19
MyAngelMiraidon 16 +8. Bit of an overcorrection due to previous weeks underrating Big 10 2-loss teams. By resume they clear Virginia but Texas and Louisville have 2+ ranked wins whereas they have one, thus being bumped up here.
NebraskaPlainsman 16
Neither_Call2913 16 With a loss to Illinois in week 5 and Notre Dame in week 8, USC is firmly out of the top 15. However, their more than two score win over Michigan in week 7 keeps them up in the mid-teens.
