Controversially I am putting the Wildcats in my top 10. This is probably temporary but after their win over Louisville, and the fact that Andre Woodson is a legit NFL QB, maybe the Wildcats string together a 10-1 season.

9. Penn State- The jury is still out on the Nittany Lions, but they are undefeated with a seasoned team.

10. Ohio State- They did pull out a nice win over Washington, but their offense could be a hindrance down the road this season.

11. Wisconsin- I believe all 3 Big 10 teams are interchangeable at this point, but after watching the Badgers struggle against the Citadel, I have to put them outside of the top 10.

Icon12. Texas- Mack Brown won't be winning a national title this season, but Texas is undefeated. To say they have looked unimpressive is an understatement of epic proportions after they barely get by UCF and Arkansas State.

13. Boston College- Matt Ryan has ACC player of the year written all over him this season and BC shut down a good Georgia Tech team Saturday night. As long as BC continues to win, they will steadily rise in the rankings. Major tests loom as they have to face Florida State, Clemson and Virginia Tech. However, there is a very real possibility BC can go undefeated, but lack of schedule strength could be a problem in the final BCS rankings.

14. Rutgers- The Scarlet Knights looked awesome playing Norfolk Community College for Women yesterday.

Icon15. Alabama- While I think they got a few iffy calls late in the Arkansas game, Nick Saban has the Tide playing good and scoring points, something they couldn't do last season.
