Current Favorites

Ohio State Buckeyes: For the first time since 2014, the Ohio State Buckeyes became National Champions during the 2024-25 season. Despite losing several key players, the Buckeyes' offense, under new offensive coordinator Brian Hartline, has been dominant again, with Jeremiah Smith back after a record-breaking freshman year and highly touted redshirt freshman quarterback Julian Sayin playing at a Heisman-caliber level. Following their blowout win over UCLA, the Buckeyes have two games remaining, and only the Michigan game will be a ranked matchup.

Indiana Hoosiers: After reaching the College Football Playoff but making an early exit last season, the Indiana Hoosiers have come out and proven their success was no fluke. Curt Cignetti has his Hoosiers looking like a team that could make a deep playoff run behind quarterback Fernando Mendoza. Under the Cal transfer, the Hoosiers' offense is 2nd in the country in points per game (40.3), and on defense, they rank 2nd in points allowed per game (12.8), per TeamRankings.

Texas A&M Aggies: One undefeated team remains in the SEC, and that team is the Texas A&M Aggies. After coming back from a 30-3 deficit to South Carolina at halftime, the Aggies sit atop the SEC standings. Behind Marcel Reed and his elite receiving corps, the Aggies' offense is tenth in the country in points per game and yards per play this season (TeamRankings). After a non-conference tune-up against Samford in Week 13, the Aggies will close out the regular season on the road at Texas.
