G’s Evaluation or Week 8 Top 261

Welcome, college football fans, to a late edition of G’s Evaluation. This week was Parent’s Weekend at Mississippi St, where along with some cornhole (my daughter beat me soundly) and attending a play (seen better), we had a watch party for Alabama to dismantle the Bulldogs. More events this morning and then the long drive back to Atlanta which delayed the rankings. I guess it’s better late than never, so I’m finally ready to publish. We had 4 previously undefeated teams drop their first game: Syracuse (6-1/9) lost a heartbreaker at Clemson (8-0/4), Mississippi (7-1/8) came up short at LSU (6-2/18), UCLA (6-1/14) added to the Pac 12 woes at Oregon (6-1/16), and Weber St (6-1/117) dropped a Big Sky game to Montana St (7-1/118). That leaves 6 FBS teams, all from Power 5 conferences: Georgia (1), Ohio St (2), Michigan (3), Clemson (4), Tennessee (5), TCU (6); and 5 FCS teams: Jackson St (82), Holy Cross (87), Sacramento St (93), Penn (98), and Princeton (110).

…..

If the playoff started today, we’d have Georgia (7-0/1) vs Clemson (8-0/4) and Ohio St (7-0/2) vs Michigan (7-0/3). Since Ohio St and Michigan play during rivalry week, we’ll drop one of them for now and add Tennessee (7-0/5) except that they play Georgia, so we’ll drop one of them for now and add TCU (7-0/6). Clear as mud, as it should be in October.

…..

If the 12-team playoff started today, it would look like this:

Seed/TeamConf/RecordSeed/TeamConf/Record
1) GeorgiaSEC (7-0/1)Bye

7) MichiganBig Ten (7-0/3)10) MississippiSEC (7-1/8)
8) TennesseeSEC (7-0/5)9) AlabamaSEC (7-1/7)

…..

So, here we are, from 1 to 261, from Georgia to Bryant, here is the full ranking. Enjoy and I’ll have some other posts later in the week.
