NCAA Football Rankings - 12 Oct

By beating Illinois on the road decisively, the Ohio State Buckeyes made a big move in this week's rankings, jumping ahead of everyone but Notre Dame to snag the #2 spot. Both Ohio State and Indiana are projected to finish the regular season undefeated, the only two teams in the nation with that distinction currently, but only one can make the playoff as an undefeated, because they would face each other in the conference championship game. Utah jumped into the top 10 after blowing out Arizona State, with the Utes' only loss coming against #4 Texas Tech. Here are my full current rankings:
