Who are you Top 4?

[NDgreatestofalltime!]

This week is the first CFB Playoff Committee Ranking. There are currently five unbeaten P5 teams, so who is left out at this time?

AP Ranking
#1 - UGA
#2 - UM
#3 - OSU
#4 - FSU
# 5 - UW

My top 4 - OSU, UM, UGA, FSU, UW (5)
Anyone that knows me, knows that I have a strong dislike of OSU, with that said I would place them #1 at this time. They have two high quality wins, beating two top 10 teams in ND and PSU, they have the best player in the nation in Harrison Jr. They are playing terrific defense with a complimentary offense which is a vastly different approach than the Buckeyes have shown the past decade.

UM, with all the controversy and a weak schedule this far, what they have done on the field is still incredibly impressive. Their margin of victory is 40 - 6 through eight games. I heard that is the best ratio in over 60 years through 8 games. JJ McCarthy is second in the NCAA in passing efficiency at 199!! They are the 3rd in total defense, and first in scoring by nearly four points, and 9th in rush defense and number one in redzone defense.

UGA - well, for being two time defending champs they’ve kind of been under the radar. The main thing with them is their 25 game win streak. I do think they are playing their best football now, they smacked UK, and FL today, they are near the top in total defense as usual, Beck is playing very efficiently and not turning it over, the running game has gotten stronger the last 3-4 games, the team is just really really good. I think their biggest obstacle remaining is a pretty good Ole Miss team. They seem to be on cruise co trip right now.

FSU - this was tough because I think UW has the best win outside of Texas over Bama. I think Oregon blew it more then UW took it though. Oregon HC Lanning made some significant blunders that cost Oregon in that game. The past few weeks FSU appears to be getting stronger while UW has struggled against a couple of 1 & 2 win teams. FSU has a much easier remaining slate than UW who faces USC, Utah, OSU, and Wazzu, whereas FSU’s only real foes remaining are Miami, and @FL. FSU and UW have similar offensive numbers, FSU is a little more balanced but is better defensively then UW IMO.

UM and FSU's SOS not there but UM looks more dominant

 

[ftnfan62]

If schedule matters, which it should, SBJ75 has my vote.

IF its polls based, its the first one.

 

[NCDomer1]

Georgia
OSU
Oregon
FSU

 

[sjb75]

Georgia
OSU
Oregon
FSU

Georgia, based on resume, may not be in the top 4. I put them at 4 just because of two straight titles.

 

[Golson5]

Georgia, based on resume, may not be in the top 4. I put them at 4 just because of two straight titles.

Their resume is better than Michigans

 

[ftnfan62]

Shows 100 vs 111....so technically yes......but it seems like you should have to break 100 to be ranked in the top 10. hahaha

 

[sjb75]

1. Georgia
2. OSU
3. Washington
4. FSU

5. Michigan
6. Oregon

Based on resume, zero shot Georgia is a 1 on Tuesday.

 

[deadirishpoet]

Is bias taken out of the formula

 

[Golson5]

Based on resume, zero shot Georgia is a 1 on Tuesday.

I agree. It will be OSU

But that is my ranking of teams

 

[BM16]

Florida St should already be ahead of Michigan. But, If LSU can beat Alabama on Saturday night that should give FSU a bump. Florida State is likely going to win out.

 

[jerbach]

1. Ohio St.
2. Florida St.
3. Washington
4. Georgia

I would agree with these based on who the teams have played and the "eyeball" test.

 

[TDIrish27]

OSU
UGA
UW
FSU

 

[Juniper_Run]

Top 4 for who has actually earned their ranking on the field:

3. Oregon

[Extirpate 6951]

Michigan cheated so they're out.

 

[Golson5]

Michigan hasn't done a thing and played no one. The eye test doesn't matter

 

[sjb75]

Michigan cheated so they're out.

Many teams cheat. McDonald's bags of cash were popular at one time.

 

[ivan brunetti]

Then they also have to leave Georgia out of the top four. That isn't happening.

 

[Golson5]

No. Georgia could take the 4 spot. And Michigan be at 5

Solved it for ya

Good luck with that.

 

[BM16]

Georgia is where they are because they are back to back national champs.

They also have three straight ranked opponents upcoming, vs Mizzou, vs Ole Miss and at Tennessee. The teams they played in the SEC this year, perhaps except Vandy, would beat the garbage Michigan has played in the Big 10. The Big 10 is awful, 8 of the 11 lowest scoring offenses in the country reside in the Big 10.

Previous years do not count. The SEC is down this year. Look at their games vs other conferences for confirmation. LSU & Bama have both lost OOC.

Georgia has looked good lately, but had some close calls this year. Not as consistent this year as Michigan.

[NDblitz]

scUM looks good against D3 teams.

1. UGA
2. Florida State
3. Bama
4. Washington

UM entire schedule thus far was on par with ND's first 4 games. ND would also be 8-0 with a huge margin of victory had they played that group.

 

[NDblitz]

Best 4 teams?
UGA
OSU
FSU
Oregon

But since Oregon lost

UGA
OSU
FSU
UW
Meat Chicken
Oregon

I agree the SEC is down, but the quality of Michigan's opponents are atrocious. The Big 10 stinks.

My money is on big game Brian losing to AL

 

[ivan brunetti]

Not atrocious compared to Georgia's schedule. Most would give Georgia's SOS the edge, but then Michigan has looked more consistent throughout the season. See Georgia 27 - Auburn 20, & Georgia 24 - South Carolina 14.

 

[sjb75]

Not atrocious compared to Georgia's schedule. Most would give Georgia's SOS the edge, but then Michigan has looked more consistent throughout the season. See Georgia 27 - Auburn 20, & Georgia 24 - South Carolina 14.

When you win the last two titles, you are currently 8-0, and have the longest winning streak in CFB, I have zero problem where Georgia is ranked.

Michigan I have a big problem with.

Hopefully you did not say this last season.

What a cherry Picker. UGA 51 UK 17 UGA 43 Florida 20 Michigan's toughest opponent is UNLV and Rutgers.

Then you haven't watched the games. Michigan has looked more consistent and more impressive than Georgia this year.

East Carolina
UNLV
Bowling Green
Rutgers
At Nebraska
At Minnesota
Indiana
At Michigan State.
Purdue

Notre Dame would be 9-0 as well. So what.
