The only criteria here is which teams would be favored against the other on a neutral field if they played tomorrow. I'll take a stab at the rankings and y'all are invited to do the same.

1. Oregon
2. Alabama
3. Clemson
4. LSU
5. TAMU
6. UGA
7. Stanford
8. FSU
9. Baylor
10. tOSU
11. South Carolina
12. Louisville
13. Florida
14. UCLA
15. Oklahoma

There is no way Vegas would have Oregon a favorite over Bama. In fact, Gameday cited an oddsmaker two weeks ago who said Bama would be a 7 point favorite over Oregon.

1. Alabama
2. Georgia
3. Oregon
4. Texas A&M
5. Stanford

Not that I think it's right but I don't think Alabama would be dogs to anybody in Vegas. It just doesn't happen right now. After that I think LSU Georgia and Oregon would be pickems and all favored over the rest.

Texas A&M

Neutral field they aren't a top team ats.

They've planned 4 home games are 2-2 @ home ATS with Rice and Sam Houston, SMU, Bama.

Backdoor covered Bama @ home.

The same oddsmaker who made TAMU-3 over Arky?

To me, Bama v. Oregon is pretty much a toss-up right now. I'd probably make them a pick. Perhaps public perception dictates Bama-3.5 at the very highest, but honestly I think Oregon would beat Bama on a neutral field right now.

Okay, then name the teams who would be favored over them on a neutral field.

At home. By less than the number of points given to the home team. So based solely on last Saturday's result, if UGA played LSU on a neutral field this coming Saturday, LSU would be favored by a half point.

I hate to say it, but I think FSU can probably beat any SEC team on a neutral field.

Nah, FSU is overrated right now. Too young on D, and a first year QB, even though he has been phenomenal.

Is this what you would make the list or what you think the list for actual Vegas spreads would be?

In fact, the Golden Nugget has already opened wagering on the potential matchup. Alabama is a 3-point favorite, with -120 vigorish, at the downtown Las Vegas bet shop.

Washington is tied with Boise State? A team that we destroyed to open the season?

well the same thing happened with uga-clemson...i think. we might have actually been the favorite but it's pretty clear we'd be favored against them at a neutral site.
