Tornadohunter24	22	[4-0, 1-0 MAC] (+2) | SOR: #38 | Notable Results: W 37-21 vs Rutgers [1-3] | It might be time to start boarding the Minutemen hype train for, if nothing else, a guaranteed bowl bid, as UMass has passed each test with flying colors so far. While their resume is nothing to write home about (pulverising upset of a hapless Rutgers notwithstanding), the Minutemen have absolutely controlled all 4 games to date and must be at least considered dark horses to make it to Ford Field for the MAC Championship game. I still want this to continue against better competition, but they look fantastic so far.

LookAtMaxwell	20	Won 37-21 at Rutgers and 35-6 at Sacramento State; its other two wins are over FCS teams. With only two FBS wins it has just 2 rule wins, and it ranks this high mainly on those margins. It's the thinnest résumé in the top 25, so expect it to move a lot once MAC play starts
