(Originally ranked on 10/14, posted on 10/20)Oregon gets a huge win at home vs Ohio St sending them over Texas. I still think Texas is the best team but they just have not been tested yet, that changes this weekend. TN and Bama are shaky once again to inferior opponents setting up a very interesting game on Saturday. Clemson continues to impress, really struggled with the order of them, Bama and TN this week. USC puts up a stinker… again. not Big 10 worthy currently, shocked I still had them this high looking back on it. TAMU gets reevaluated on the bye week, pushing them above Boise and Pitt. Ole Miss collects a second loss sending them plummeting, even to a good LSU team. Welcome Vandy, Army, and Arizona St. Vandy of course has a win over Bama and now gets a very solid win over Kentucky to see them in the poll for the first time in NMP history. ASU man, tough, tough team. I saw it last year but just didn’t have the results, this year they do. Very solid team, led by Skattebo. Army stays hot running over literally everyone on their schedule, Army Navy going to be insane this year.
