Key Results From Week 6
The latest round of games produced major shifts when three undefeated teams dropped contests. No. 1 Texas fell at the buzzer to Oklahoma while No. 6 Alabama lost to No. 2 Georgia. Indiana extended its 22-game winning streak with a fourth-quarter rally against Nebraska and now prepares for a Week 7 matchup against No. 5 Ohio State. Oregon's outlook dimmed further after a loss to UCLA.
Expert Consensus on Top Teams
Miami, Notre Dame and Ohio State occupy most of the next three spots in varying order. Alabama, Indiana and Texas appear in the top 12 on nearly all ballots while UCLA, BYU, Utah and Texas Tech also receive frequent mentions.
Teams on the Bubble
Lower positions show wider disagreement. Boise State, Ole Miss, Oklahoma State and Kentucky surface on several lists while James Madison and New Mexico appear on individual ballots. The spread of names reflects uncertainty about which additional programs will secure spots in the final field.
