21. Vanderbilt Commodores

Vanderbilt also started 4-0 in 2005, but ended up finishing 5-6 and that season. However, this year’s Commodores seem to be more likely to make a bowl game due to having much better wins at this point (South Carolina, @ Ole Miss).

 

22. UConn Huskies

Uconn has not had any impressive wins, but similarly to last season’s Huskies, they find ways to win. With a soft Big East schedule, UConn can amass a win total that is much greater than their talent level.

 

23. Wake Forest Demon Deacons

Saturday’s loss at home to Navy has exposed Wake’s struggles with their running game with only 43 yards that game. Wake Forest is going to need to improve its running game for the rest of ACC play if they want to be an Orange Bowl contenders.

 

24. Virginia Tech Hokies

A win over Nebraska at Lincoln puts Virginia Tech back in the rankings. However, their loss against East Carolina continues to look worse

 

25. Ball State Cardinals

Since no other team outside the rankings deserves to be ranked, Ball State will cap out the top 25 due its impressive 5-0 start that includes wins over Navy and Indiana.
