    I don't see how Stanford doesn't drop a few. I have it as Oregon, Alabama, Clemson, LSU, Ohio St. As my top 5 but you are prob accurate.

    Clemson has an outside shot to take over the 4 spot. But the problem is they didn't play. So now they need roughly 10 coaches out of 60 to change their mind with swapping Stanford for Clemson. That's a lot on a night when you win comfortably enough (although Stanford fell woefully short of beating the point spread of 30-31 points).


    My personal top 10:

    1. Oregon
    2. Alabama
    3. LSU
    4. Florida State
    5. Ohio State
    6. Clemson
    7. Stanford
    8. Georgia
    9. Texas A&M
    10. UCLA

    How the hell can you drop Louisville in the rankings after a road win against an SEC team (even if it is a weaker one)? Makes no sense. You rate a road win over Kentucky lower than a home win against Kent St.? Credibility denied sir. Smells like bias.

    1. Bama
    2. Oregon
    3. OSU
    4. Stanford
    5. Clemson
    6. Louisville
    7. LSU
    8. Fl. St.
    9. Ok. St.
    10. Georgia

    Louisvilles schedule is suspect at best, no Top 25 on it, and everyone knows playing UK at their place is no daunting task. Basically the same advantage as a home game... UK straight sucks balls.

    Maybe he doesn't know that Kentucky's stadium is 70 miles from Louisville. It was a neutral site game at best.

    That was a horrible performance by Louisville.

    You drop Louisville because they had to scratch and claw offensively against an SEC cellar dweller. Plus it's not like it was out of state.

    Louisville will never get out of the #6 to #9 slots all year long. Teams will simply jump them. Then eventually 1 loss teams will start jumping them. You can't have that kind of schedule and get away with it in today's college football.
