T-Thugs	10	Duke is 3-0 with a nice win over Illinois (2-1). Also have a win over Stanford (1-2). Another team I've probably got a little too high this week thanks to being one of only a few teams with 2 p4 wins.

PlactusTX	16	LW: NR | Tier 3 (up from 4) | W Stanford Teams that benefitted from the "undefeated, same-tier victory" offer, by definition, have a decent win which secures a high position. Duke, with two such wins (Illinois and Tulane), moves to near the top of tier 3.

Corgi_Koala	19
Pyromania1983	19	I have been high on the Blue Devils since they wonn the ACC title last year, and the team has continued to look like a really good team. They still really aren't receiving love in the AP poll, but they have been the better team in all three of their games this year. Even with that, this past week's win over Stanford was on another level, as they won by 28, put up almost 500 yards of offense, and sustained a massive 268-yard rushing attack.

quantum_jedi	3	(44.71, +0) Duke stays near the top of these rankings with another win over a "power" team in Stanford, but the pack is rapidly catching. Duke is a solid team, but still overvalued by the model in the early season.

GrimmacingGrinny	20	Nate Sheppard leads the country in rushing yards with 528 through 3 games. An insanely talented back, and a team that is capable of putting up points. With a relatively weak schedule moving forward, I wouldn’t be surprised to see this team win 9 or 10 games.
