College Football Rankings - 18 Sep

Many of the top teams struggled this week, with some going down and others squeaking by, including Alabama, which had been #1 for a couple weeks in my rankings. Even though their opponent was very good and they pulled out the victory, Ohio State's road blowout of Oklahoma vaulted the Buckeyes into this week's #1 spot. Here are my full current rankings:
