The usual for Ohio State is the one Georgia set. And the Buckeyes haven't met it.
Dominance. Excellence. Unflinching perfection. That’s all I ask.
With that, listed here are my prime 25 rankings:
Editor's notice: This set of rankings was up to date to mirror Florida State's Week 1 loss to Boston Faculty.
1. Georgia (1-0)
Week 1 consequence: Defeated Clemson, 34-3
Georgia has gained 43 of its final 45 video games. Its solely losses throughout that stretch have been to Nick Saban’s Alabama program, and Saban is now not at Alabama.
After an announcement win towards a prime 25 program that has gained as many nationwide titles within the CFP period because the Dawgs have, Georgia has earned the precise to be the No. 1-ranked workforce within the nation.
2. Ohio State (1-0)
Week 1 consequence: Defeated Akron, 52-6
I anticipated Ohio State to close out one of many worst groups within the nation. As an alternative, they trailed Akron 3-0 and allowed twice as many factors scored by the Zips (6) as Georgia allowed Clemson to attain all day.
The Buckeyes ought to’ve held the Zips to zip.
3. Texas (1-0)
Week 1 consequence: Defeated Colorado State, 52-0
Regardless of dropping two of their prime three tailbacks earlier than the season started, the Longhorns regarded like a workforce that expects to contend for the SEC title with over 500 yards of offense and a scrumptious little bit of rubbish time leisure with Arch Manning at quarterback. Texas seems to be like a workforce that may beat Michigan in Ann Arbor.
4. Ole Miss (1-0)
Week 1 consequence: Defeated Furman, 76-0
Jaxson Dart threw for 418 yards (22-of-27) and 5 touchdowns within the first half alone. Wideout Tre Harris had eight catches for 179 yards with two scores.
Ole Miss scored 73 factors within the first three quarters alongside 772 whole yards. Lane Kiffin ain't messing round.
5. Alabama (1-0)
Week 1 consequence: Defeated Western Kentucky, 63-0
The Hilltoppers bought rock-bottomed by Alabama. This was the most important shutout win by the Crimson Tide since 1973. They did not have the providers of former five-star offensive deal with Kadyn Proctor, whose arm was in a sling underneath a shirt firstly of the sport, however it didn’t matter.
True freshman wideout Ryan Williams loved a breakout efficiency with two catches for 139 yards, and each catches have been touchdowns. Michigan switch Keon Sabb nabbed two interceptions within the first half of the rout.
Greater Loss: Nick Saban at Alabama or Jim Harbaugh at Michigan?
Rocco Becht accomplished 20 of his 26 passes for 267 yards and two touchdowns within the win towards FCS North Dakota. Nevertheless it's Abu Sama who wants to point out out if the Cyclones count on to defeat the Hawkeyes on Saturday. He rushed for simply 36 yards in Week 1, however went for 276 towards Kansas State a yr in the past.
Matt Campbell is simply 1-6 towards Iowa as Iowa State's head coach.
