I agree with the rankings. Especially the top 3. Only reason Georgia us ahead of Bama is strengthvof schedule heavily favours georgia at this point. Only Beef i might have is Clemson but thats just being nit picky and theres a huge debate from 3-7
Yep, top 3 sounds about right.

4-8 are debatable and I think Wisconsin should have been ranked higher. Not only because of undefeated record so far but they are playing some proper football. 3 and 4 are up for grabs, all of these teams have a chance.

Wisconsin hasent played anybody. Theyre SOS might be the worst of all power 5 schools in the too 25. Theyve played trash teams
 
If Oklahoma runs the table beating Oklahoma st and tcu and avenging their 1 loss in the big 12 championship vs iowa st theres no way they get left out. They would have a better strength of schedule than clemson and would have the head to head win over ohio st.

If this winning streak happens than you can also hand Baker Mayfeild the Heisman right now.

Hes also the kind of guy who could beat Bama...just not sure if oklahoma has enough depth.

It would create a hell storm cause im not totally convinced they are one of the top 4 teams ( as both clemson and Ohio st woukd probably win on a neutral feild) but nobody could deny that resume
 
Theyre 3rd but ya

i think id really like a bama notre dame final at this point - bama's defence will hopefully be healthy at that point and notre dame's offence is fun to watch at times - would be a nice battle

as long as its not clemson bama again ill be mostly happy - i dont know why but i dont really like watching clemson all that much

Clemson this year is pretty boring to watch, lots of RPOs and QB draws... Seeing Josh Adams and the ND OL against Bama's front, seven should be tons of fun. I love those strength on strength matchups.

I'm not sure this year Alabama is good enough to go all the way. I don't know. Maybe they are. It's just been weird watching them, they kind of played with other teams without really playing great but all those teams suck big time. O line's been great, they have enough players to fill 3 above average backfields but defensively they miss pass rush big time. It's got better lately with couple guys returning from injuries (Hand might be back on Saturday, too) but couple linebackers aren't returning this year. Add less depth on D line than usual and it just doesn't look right.

Also, very uncharacteristic special teams this season, particularly in the return department. Better teams are now on the schedule, if Bama don't get their shit together and catch some punts, they are going to pay.

I think this is the year we get Ohio st vs Bama. Ohio st has to hope Oklahoma losses again otherwise they wont get in though.
 
To be fair i think Ohio st and Clemsons Dline is better than Bamas
True fir Clemson, not sure for OSU. But anyway Bama is still a physical team that likes to outmuscle their opponent, which is how ND has won this year, so it'll be fun to watch those two punch it out.

Not sure about OSU? Greg Schiano called the group the best hes ever coached. The have high profile names like Nick Bosa, Sam Hubbard, Tyquan Lewis, and Jalyn Holmes.

Im a Bama supporter and Id still say OSU has a better Dline. Not sure about the back end though lol

And ya i know what you mean. Bama and ND would be interesting. Kinda how Goergia v ND was earlier this year
