NCAA Football Rankings - 30 Sep

The college football season has gotten to the point where every team has played at least 4 games, which helps make it easier to tell how they stack up against each other, so today I am sharing my first rankings of the season. Alabama is #1 after their impressive win over Georgia, and there are several surprise teams in the top 10, including BYU, Boise State, UNLV, and Indiana. Both Army and Navy are undefeated and in the top 25, which has not happened for as long as I have been doing this. Here are my full current rankings:
