Numbers 4,5,7,10,11,13,16,18,25 are all overrated.
Any team with 1 loss at this point in the season should not be rated at all.
Arizona St. should be rated much higher, USC should be rated as should Iowa, Clemson, and Penn St.

USC as in Southern Cal?? Hardly.

At the risk of being called a homer...I'd put Iowa above your 22-25 selections. Hawaii wouldn't match up well against Iowa. I do believe we'll end up in 20's by the end of the season.

I'm curious if teams have figured out how to beat Oregon, or did they just run into 2 SEC teams that were athletic defensively and pounded the ball on them offensively. Sat. night LSU manhandled the Ducks at the LoS, and until Oregon proves it can stop a power running game, you have to believe teams will pound the rock down their throats, playing ball control offense and shortening the game to limit Oregon's possessions.
Also, I don't know that I'd ever put BSU above #5. Sure they can win the 2 games a year they play the big boys w/ weeks to prepare, but you'll never know how they'd take the pounding a major conference schedule would put on them week in and week out.

You're not impressed with a two point win at home against Minnesota? USC is garbage outside of Barkley and Woods, throw in the fact that their scholarship ban starts next year and the fact that their coach is Lane Kiffin and I think it's going to be a while before they see the top 25 again.

Mississippi St. is going to be a great team.

I strongly disagree. If that were the case, no one would schedule any meaningful games during the non-conference, and you would be stuck watching Iowa vs. Tennessee Tech every game, every weekend. Oregon should not be harshly penalized for losing to one of the best teams in the country, who was virtually playing a home game.

We will find out a bit about Mississippi St in the next 2 games (@ Auburn and home to LSU). PLus, they are 5 days apart (Saturday then Thursday). It should be interesting.

Iowa won't make it. Michigan and Northwestern are ahead of them in ranked Big Ten teams plus they had "more impressive victories".

That MSU-LSU game is going to be great. I don't think any game this month in CFB excites me as much as this one.
