NCAA Football Rankings - 30 Sep

Ohio State's win over Penn State helped the Buckeyes jump up a few spots in the rankings, but it wasn't quite enough for them to pass the Nittany Lions, though the gap between them is nearly gone. Kentucky made it to the top ten in football for the first time I can remember, and West Virginia joined them after holding on to beat Texas Tech. Here are my full current rankings, with projected conference champs in bold and title game runners-up underlined:
