I get there's a lot of good teams out there but still don't get Iowa at #10 and Houston at #18. That's a huge spread given the Hawks schedule.

That's the AP poll, not the coaches they were second in the receiving votes category for the coaches poll.

Pretty sure the CBS 128 isn't updated yet which means we will maybe break 90 this week! Not too bad considering that we started off somewhere around 115-120

I'm dropping Florida to #15 and swapping in Houston right behind Michigan State to #14. FL overrated based on their body of work.

Temple and Navy should both be ahead of Mississippi State with little between either and UCLA/FSU.

Wisconsin and Northwestern play an eliminator this coming week ahead of Memphis who is likely to lose @Houston imo after the Navy debacle anyway.

I understand this poll has been supplanted by the Playoff Cartel Rankings but here is my Top 25 after this weekend. If the system was legit I feel anyone in the top 14 should still have an outside shot at top 4 or at least a major bowl.

RANK TEAM

1 Clemson
2 Notre Dame
3 Ohio State
4 Alabama
----------------------------------
5 Iowa
6 Oklahoma
7 Mich St
8 Oklahoma St
9 Houston
10 Baylor
11 North Carolina
12 Florida
13 TCU
14 Navy
------------------------------
15 Utah
16 Michigan
17 LSU
18 FSU
19 Stanford
20 Northwestern
21 Memphis
22 Wisconsin
23 Bowling Green
24 Temple
25 Toledo

And I'm not a Notre Dame fanboy but they've beaten good teams and only loss close on the road to #1 Clemson. Problem for them is remaining schedule not great. Could fall out of top 4.

No way ND is that high after Temple lost! They have no big wins on their schedule to justify that ranking. Stranger things have happened but I would be really surprised

I get that (and everybody loves Bama/SEC so it won't happen) but mainly based on a close loss to my #1 Clemson. And Temple is arguably still a top 25 team when you look at the other options out there. But ND has nowhere to go but down from here and the Big 12 has a path, but only if a 1 loss team like Oklahoma runs the table. Otherwise they eat each other in the remaining schedule.

If UCLA stays in the top 25 there should be an investigation.

Clemson has Wake and USCe on their remaining schedule. That is a worse schedule than ND.

Florida has a great D but should still be right behind Houston even if you buy into the one-loss teams ahead of Houston.

Oklahoma State at #4 is a joke and a 3-loss Ole Miss pops into the top 25 ahead of a Memphis a team that destroyed them, and lost to 2 top 25 teams. That is worse than a joke.

UCLA finally dropped out, but three PAC12 teams entered, taking the places of UCLA, Temple and Memphis - the latter of which seemed to really get screwed with a drop of several places for losing a one-point game late on the road vs a ranked team.
 
Memphis getting dropped from the rankings after losing to two ranked teams with other solid wins on their schedule speaks of nothing but tting on the American to me. This is a bit of conference homer-ism but a 3 loss Ole Miss team in at #25 over a 2 loss Memphis team that beat them is proof in the pudding they're getting an SEC bump, win over Bama regardless.
 
What is ND'S marquee victory? Only ND can get credit for losing a game in bad weather. I missed the part of that game when Clemson was allowed to play in dry conditions......

Clemson and Bama should be ahead of Ohio St., and ND shouldn't be in the top 4 tonight.

Navy is ND's only good win. May Stanford beat them, Clemson lose at least one or more games, Auburn shockingly beat Alabama along with the latter losing in the Sec championship game, Michigan beat Ohio State, OK State and Baylor lose at least a game, AND our Huskies win out, or at least get one bowl qualifying win and a bow invitation! Totally muck things up, make it even more entertaining, and further enable the whiners.
