Man the season is flying by! Another week in the books!
Here's my thoughts...
1. Tennessee definitely looks like a Playoff contender.
The Volunteers stifled Oklahoma on both sides of fhe ball. And Oklahomas O Line had major problems containing Tennessee from getting to the QB. It will be interesting when we see Tennessee play more Contenders down the road.
2. BYE Weeks for Georgia, Alabama and Oregon.
3. We had some Scares in the SEC and some surprises.
Mizzou taken to the Brink of 2 Overtimes to Escape Vandy 30-27
Texas A&M eeks by Bowling Green 26-20
UPSETS
BYU throttles Kansas State 38-9
Buffalo shocks Northern Illinois 23-20
Pointspalooza Games!
James Madison hangs 70 on North Carolina defeating the Tar Heels 70-50
SMU Downs TCU 66-42
4. The Usual Suspects took care of business.
Texas, Ohio State, Ole Miss and Miami took care of their Opponents...
5. Going back to teams I've Mentioned Earlier... theres a couple of teams out there that have given teams fits... and are surprising teams.
BOWLING GREEN... The Falcons almost Upset Penn State And went to the brink with Texas A&M... 100% a contender to win the MAC.
VANDERBILT - They are not in the Basement of the SEC.. Florida and Mississippi State are! And I Look for the Commodores to get some Ws in the conference down the road.
6. My Predicted Top 10... Just a little movement....
1. Texas
2. Georgia
3. Ohio State
4. Alabama
5. Ole Miss
6. Tennessee
7. Miami FL +1
8. Mizzou -1
9. Oregon
10. Penn State
Give me your thoughts!

Re: Valenth's Thoughts from Week 4
Week 4 was short on marque games but as @Valenth points out, there were some interesting, high scoring games.
I also thought the USC - Michigan game was interesting. The Wolverines may have found a leader to rally around in Orji. He absolutely cannot throw the ball, but his presence did rally the running game and defense to levels where they might be more than also rans.
As to the rankings, Texas should be the clear number one team. Ohio State, Georgia,, Bama, and Ole Miss are interchangeable for second through fifth based on performance and schedule to date.
Our Buckeyes have shown glimpses of being a truly great team, but they honestly will not be tested until October 5th when they host Iowa.

They say nothing is impossible, yet I accomplish nothing every day.

Re: Valenth's Thoughts from Week 4
We learned USC still can't tackle in space and they don't have physicality up front defensively. Michigan is a one trick pony on offense and that won't hold up long.
