Rankings through November 22, 2014

We head into rivalry week with several very interesting games with definite championship implications.  FSU has looked shaky and will probably be pushed to the brink again against Florida.  Auburn, Ole Miss, Texas, and even Oregon State all have a chance to ruin the playoff dreams of their in-state rivals with at least 4 teams hoping that a slip at the top will vault them into the playoff.  Rivalry games in the Pac-12 and B1G will determine who gets the to the conference championship games.  It should be a great Thanksgiving weekend of football!

Rankings through November 15, 2014

Alabama upended Mississippi State and claimed the number one spot in our ranking this week.  Florida State (#3) and Marshall (#31) now remain as the only two undefeated teams yet neither is in the top two due to their perceived weak strength of schedule.

Rankings through November 8, 2014

Wow!  If the season ended today, the Random Walker rankings would pick Miss St. and Alabama for a national championship game.  And it just so happens that they play each other next week!  FSU and TCU seem to be in cruise control the rest of the season hoping that the SEC continues to beat up on itself.  Oregon and Arizona St. also seem to be heading towards a matchup in the Pac 12 championship with the winner hoping to have a place in the playoff as well.  There are still many great games to be played before the dust settles.

Rankings through November 1, 2014

The SEC continues its domination of our rankings with 5 of the top 7.  It will be interesting to see if the SEC can somehow get two teams into the four team playoff.  If so, there will be some unhappy people either in the Big 12 or Big 10 I'd imagine.
