Goz's College Football Rankings (Week 12)

For the third consecutive season,I will be providing my own personal Top 25 poll each week during the college football season. My poll philosophy all season long will remain the same and that is by ranking the teams I believe are the best twenty-five best in the country following that given week’s games. Below are my rankings and comments about each week’ biggest shake-up and changes. Do you agree or disagree? Let me know below or on Twitter @TomGozz

LSU
Ohio State
Clemson
Minnesota
Alabama
Baylor
Penn State
Georgia
Oregon
Utah
Oklahoma
Florida
Auburn
Michigan
Notre Dame
Cincinnati
Wisconsin
Memphis
Boise State
SMU
Navy
Iowa
Oklahoma State
Appalachian State
Indiana

The drama is in the Top 10- Each of these Top 11 teams has their case to be both higher and lower. I've had LSU has the top team in the country for over a month and that was confirmed Saturday. Ohio State moves to #2 and the Buckeyes are beating teams on average by more than six touchdowns a game. Clemson is still unbeaten and crushing teams by thirty four points per game. Minnesota and Baylor may be considered my most "controversial" rankings at 4 and 6. So who deserves to be a head of the undefeated teams? I have Alabama sandwiched in between them at 5 because their lone loss is to the #1 team in the country. Why should Georgia, Penn State, Oregon, Utah be ahead of them? What is the best win for Oregon and Utah? Wins over a disappointing Washington team? Georgia lost to South Carolina. And of course I can't put Penn State over Minnesota after they just lost to them. Baylor has a chance to prove other voters wrong Saturday when they take on Oklahoma.
