Each Saturday night I rank the 10 best teams in the country. The order fluctuates from week to week based on new information. And like the selection committee, I attempt to reward teams with a tough strength of schedule.
- Alabama (8-0): You know things are going well when Nick Saban is smiling and laughing during his halftime interview. The Tide outgained Tennessee 604-108 and would have pitched a shutout if not for backup QB Tua Tagovailoa’s pick-six.
- Georgia (7-0): The Dawgs bolstered their résumé without even playing. Remember that 20-19 win at Notre Dame in Week 2?
