As you can see, the Bulldogs are not far from the top-25, but they still have some work to do to crack the list.
Florida State still has a stranglehold on the top spot, but several other teams are getting first place love as well. The SEC West has four teams in the top ten: Alabama (2), Auburn (5), Texas A&M (8), and LSU (9). Ole Miss stands at No. 15, so as of right now, the Bulldogs have five top-15 opponents on their schedule.
In the world of the bizarre, how does Ohio State end up ahead of the Virginia Tech team that just defeated them?
