Somebody has to be No. 1.
1. 
Last week: 2
Record: 5-2
Last game: Beat Tampa Bay 24-23
Next up: @ New Orleans
Quinn Gray didn't look outstanding Sunday, but he did get a win at Ray-J. When Garrard gets back, this team is one to worry about.
2. 
Last week: 4
Record: 5-3, 2-2 ACC (unranked)
Last game: Bye
Next up: vs. North Carolina State
Sitting idly around the dorm room was a pretty good look by this week's standards.
3. 
Last week: 5
Record: 4-4
Last game: Lost to Jacksonville 24-23
Next up: vs. Arizona
Nail-biting loss to Jacksonville should have been a nail-biting win, and they're back where they started at .500.
4. 
Last week: 1
Record: 5-3, 3-3 SEC (BCS No. 20, AP No. 18, USA Today No. 17)
Last game: Lost to Georgia 42-30
Next up: Vanderbilt
The Gators may as well show up naked on Saturday. They've already been fully exposed.
5. 
Last week: 7
Record: 5-3, 2-3 ACC (unranked)
Last game: Beat Duke 25-6
Next up: @ Boston College
Jumps two spots up the FFPR temporarily, but they've got little chance against BC.
6. 
Last week: 3
Record: 6-2, 1-2 Big East (BCS No. 18, AP No. 20, USA Today No. 21)
Last game: Lost to Connecticut 22-15
Next up: vs. Cincinnati
Be careful! The Bulls have become self-aware, and they're not happy about being a mediocre pretender looking up at the Big East.
7. 
Last week: 6
Record: 5-3, 3-1 C-USA (unranked)
Last game: Beat Southern Miss 34-17
Next up: vs. Marshall
Still in the running for a C-USA title, but they can't jump USF.
8. 
Last week: 8
Record: 0-8
Last game: Lost to New York Giants 13-10
Next up: Bye week, mercifully
I don't think this joke has been made yet: they can't win in this country or any other! Get it?
