Looks like we have a top 10 matchup versus the Gators this week.

Still don't understand Utah being that high even though Michigan looks really good right now, but at least they got Florida, Ole Miss, Alabama correct.

Utah is completely deserving of their ranking. Otherwise, who would you put ahead of them based off of their accomplishments this season?

Utah has looked better than Ohio State, TCU, and Michigan State, who should all be in the bottom of the top 10.

Utah is awesome because crushed a shitty 3-3 Oregon at Oregon!!! A team that also struggled with EWU and Colorado!

It's like Bama being top 10 again for beating unranked Georgia

No. 4 is actually about right for them, but I'd put Clemson ahead and TCU behind them. But if you actually look at the votes, Utah has 16 votes for #1 and is pretty much interchangeable with TCU for the No. 3 spot.

JMO, but I'd say that Clemson's win over ND is a better quality win than Utah's win over Michigan... I don't even consider the win over Oregon a quality win at this point.

It's incredible how far Oregon has fallen this year.

LSU fans would say it's because Kelly's quarterbacks are gone.

Beating Georgia by 4TDs on the road is still a solid win on a resume.

You can't play the transitive property game with college football. Just because LSU beat E Michigan by 22 and Arkon beat E Michigan by 27, doesn't mean Arkon has a better team.

Just look at Utah's resume- they've beaten some good teams, and even though Oregon is atrocious this year, they beat them by 6TDs at Autzen.

Travis Wilson has been QB for Utah since the 90's.

Whatever your opinion, I think we all just better get comfortable with the idea of Utah in the Top 5. Utah's remaining schedule:

Arizona St.
@ S. Cal
Oregon St.
@ Wash
@ Arizona
UCLA
Colorado
PAC-12 Championship

Wow. Each game is winnable, for sure. I doubt they'll win out, but they may be favored in their remaining games.

2 teams in the top 5 are living off of beating shitty Oregon and skirting by everyone else.

6 is good for now. I still don't think Ohio State and TCU should be ranked that high.
