October 6, 2013 · CSM Staff
| Rank | Team | Comments | Prior | |
| 1 |  |
Alabama | It was not a very fun week to watch Bama as they coasted against Georgia St. Kentucky won’t put up a fight either. | 1 |
| 2 |  |
Ohio State | The Buckeyes held on to beat Northwestern just a week after knocking off Wisconsin. They deserve a week off. | 2 |
| 3 |  |
Oregon | Marcus Mariota accounted for seven touchdowns as the Ducks crushed CU. They head to Washington next. | 3 |
| 4 |  |
Stanford | The Cardinal survived their toughest test of the season with a win against Washington. Now they head to Utah. | 4 |
| 5 |  |
Clemson | Clemson went to Syracuse and continued their offensive domination. The FSU game looms in two weeks. | 5 |
| 6 |  |
Florida State | The next time we see Florida State, it should actually be a good game. FSU heads to Clemson after a bye week. | 8 |
| 7 |  |
Louisville | The Cardinals only scored 30 points against Temple. But it was more important to rest for Thursday night. | 6 |
| 8 |  |
Georgia | Georgia held on to beat Tennessee in overtime whether they really deserved it or not. | 7 |
| 9 |  |
Texas A&M | Following a nice week off, Texas A&M heads to Mississippi to take on a Rebels team desperate for a win. | 9 |
| 10 |  |
LSU | The Tigers had another impressive offensive showing against MSU. The Florida defense will be tested this week. | 10 |
| 11 |  |
South Carolina | The Gamecocks had to hold off a furious comeback attempt by Kentucky to stay alive in the SEC East. | 11 |
| 12 |  |
UCLA | Winning at Utah is not easy and, while it was not pretty, the Bruins are now 4-0 heading into the game againt Cal. | 12 |
| 13 |  |
Oklahoma | Oklahoma struggled offensively against TCU, but the defense did enough to get the win. | 13 |
| 14 |  |
Miami (FL) | After a slow start, Miami pulled it all together in the second half to remain undefeated with a 45-30 win over GT. | 15 |
| 15 |  |
Florida | This week Florida travels to LSU and, as odd as it sounds, the Florida defense needs to stop the potent LSU offense. | 16 |
| 16 |  |
Michigan | Eventually the Wolverines pulled away from Minnesota. This week Michigan heads to Penn State. | 14 |
| 17 |  |
Baylor | Coming off of WVU’s upset win over OSU, there were rumblings that they could slow down Baylor. They couldn’t. | 19 |
| 18 |  |
Fresno State | Unlike last week, the Fresno State offense and the defense showed up for the entire game against Idaho. | 20 |
| 19 |  |
Nebraska | The Nebraska defense looked good against an occasionally potent Illini offense. They were without QB Martinez. | 21 |
| 20 |  |
Washington | Washington looked good in their loss to Stanford. To have any hope for a Pac-12 title they need to beat Oregon. | 18 |
| 21 |  |
Texas Tech | The Red Raiders spotted KU ten points and then blew them away. This weekend Texas Tech hosts Iowa State. | 22 |
| 22 |  |
Northwestern | The Wildcats gave OSU a heck of a game. If they want to compete for a Big Ten title, they need to win at Wisconsin. | 17 |
| 23 |  |
Oklahoma State | It took a late touchdown for OSU to beat a struggling Kansas State team at home. | 23 |
| 24 |  |
Northern Illinois | Despite spending a ton of time on the road, Northern Illinois is now 5-0. They stay home against Akron next. | NR |
| 25 |  |
