SB Nation BlogPoll College Football Top 25 Rankings "
To me, you can almost divide the ballot into five sections and organize each section however and still be right. Keep in mind that just because a team is No. 3, 4, 5 or whatever, doesn't mean they can't jump up without a team ahead of them losing or move down without losing themselves. Things will start to get crazy now that we have a better idea of who these teams are. Also keep in mind that I do not care who a team has remaining on its schedule. I only care about who they've played so far and how they've performed in those games.
For me, the Top 5 teams in the country are Alabama, Boise State, Oregon, Ohio State and TCU.
Nos. 1-5: The Cream
- Alabama has three wins over Top 25 (at the time) teams, including one on the road and another against Florida. There aren't many teams, if any, that can compete with that resume and doing all of it while having the No. 1 bull's eye on their backs.
- BSU has two wins over Top 25 (at the time) teams and dominated two teams on the road.
- Oregon has been dominant so far and has two road wins against BCS teams. Their closest win was at Arizona State and while watching that game I never really got the feeling that Oregon was every really in any danger.
- Ohio State has a big win over Miami, but struggled on the road in conference and has three other wins over cupcakes.
- TCU looked good when I saw it in person against Oregon State, blew out a Baylor team that might be better than we thought and has two blowout wins on the road.
