Just a 41-0 pasting from Ga Southern and UMass makes rankings history.
The only team ever to ever go from unranked to #1. Quite a debut.
Vandy postponed versus doormat Mizu to rise from 1 to 2,,Aub, UGA, Tenn and the misses are green with envy.
6 for the ACC this week lead by Syr at #9, GT is back in the saddle again at #21, UVA debut at #19
Wake,Kentucky,Temple exit

There will be fresh meat next week as B10 starts play with 7 games.
no doubt stalwarts like Rutgers,Nebraska and Illini can't wait to join the party.
maybe a surprise,who knows?

The entire Big Ten should be at the bottom 25 and only once they win a game can they move up.

It should be. Here we have 75 or so teams that have played between 4 and 5 games already and a team that has yet to play is ranked #6? That's laughable.
Why is 2-1 florida ahead of 5-0 byu?
Why is 4-1 nc state behind 3-1 iowa state?
Why do we have preseason rankings at all when teams are all 1-0?

Rankings are arbitrary and pointless until the very last one. Who cares if OSU is ranked higher than 2-1 Florida.

It will get crazier next week trying to compare the 1 game teams with 4,5,6
Maybe he should try having a second poll for newbies for a few weeks
FIU at #6 is 0-2 but they have had 3 cancellations

Honestly they are pointless even the last one.
I meant the one that determines which four teams get to play in the CFP and determines which teams play in which bowls. That one actually impacts the season (even if the selection process is still arbitrary).

Weekend matchups

#18 FSU @ #16 Louisville

that's the only one i see

"strange side effects of this COVID-19 season. Teams are starting at different times, and some are starting after they announced they wouldn't be playing at all. Like UMass"
"Right now, there aren't any other games on their schedule! If they don't play again, so can I keep them at No. 1? Should The Bottom 25 have a minimum games played threshold? These are things I have to consider! They're eligible for now, but that could change."
