Notes
*A refresher on how I rank teams.
*Even after sleepwalking a week ago versus Vanderbilt, I still consider the Rebels' win at Alabama the best victory on any team's resume. They could solidify their grip on No. 1 by whooping Florida on Saturday.
*Utah rocking Oregon in Eugene also rates well. That Michigan W looks better now, too.
*Win at Clemson and the Fighting Irish will move up with a quickness.
*Georgia also stands to rise in the rankings by beating Alabama on Saturday.
