Clemson down to #4?-This is a classic example of "Tell me why they should be higher" All the teams above them have proven themselves against far better competition than the Tigers. I can't put Clemson any higher than four.
Oklahoma or Penn State at 5?- I went back and forth on this all week. I slightly give the edge to Oklahoma over Penn State and it's more about how Penn State's game ended. A dropped pass by Michigan helped the team from Happy Valley keep their undefeated season in tact.
Alabama and LSU need to be careful!- Both teams have classic "trap games" this weekend. The Tide and Tigers both have a bye week on the way and then they play each other. Don't sleep on Arkansas and Auburn keeping it as Lee Corso says "closer than the experts think!"
