NCAA Football Rankings - 9 Sep

The Alabama Crimson Tide again left no doubt as to which team should be #1 this week, and they are the only team in the country projected to finish without a loss. Among the teams moving up to challenge the Tide is Penn State, which was my #1 team last year, and dominated the Pitt Panthers this weekend on the road. Georgia, last season's runner-up, was also very impressive in dismantling South Carolina on the road, which pushed the Bulldogs up into the top 5 as well. Here are my full current rankings, with projected conference champs in bold:
