NCAA Football Rankings - 29 Sep

The Ohio State Buckeyes just won their fourth straight game by at least 40 points, this time on the road against Nebraska, who was supposed to be good this year. They have also destroyed Cincinnati, who is ranked #13 and projected to win the American this year, as well as FAU, who is currently looking like the Conference USA champs. They face a pretty good Michigan State team next week, but the team with the best chance of handing them a defeat this year may be Penn State, who just steamrolled Maryland to jump into the top 5. Here are my full current rankings, with projected conference champs in bold, runners-up underlined, and projected playoff teams in red:
