Tier 1:
1) Ohio State
2) Georgia
Tier 2:
3) Michigan
4) Alabama
5) Tennessee
Bit of a Gap:
6) Clemson - very fortunate to be undefeated right now.
7) TCU - still think they're pretenders.
8) Oklahoma State - that W vs Texas was a good win.
9) Oregon - they'd be #8 for me if they had merely just lost vs UGA- they got annihilated so knocks them down a peg imo.
10) USC - kinda here by default, but they are only 2 pts away from being 7-0 instead of 6-1.
My gut feel is #1 and #2 are kind of on their own tier and just a cut above 3-4-5. And that #3-4-5 are all pretty close. Michigan red-zone offense efficiency and the deep ball/downfield passing game are concerns. Bama OL and secondary are concerns and they may just be way too Bryce Young centric- wherein as they only go as he goes. Tennessee run game and defense little bit of concern imo.
And then there's a big gap from the top 5 and beyond. Like Clemson at 6 and TCU are 7 by default, but don't think either team are all that.
