Alabama has dominated this college football season.

We’re only 6 weeks in, but the Crimson Tide have looked awfully impressive. Outside of Nick Saban’s bunch, a few others have looked elite as well.

Many liked what Oklahoma was doing under the guidance of QB Kyler Murray. The Sooners, however, lost to Texas Saturday.

ESPN’s Kirk Herbstreit had Oklahoma at No. 4 in his previous rankings, but that changed this week:

  1. Alabama
  2. Ohio State
  3. Georgia
  4. Clemson

Each of these 4 teams are still unbeaten, and Ohio State is the lone B1G team making Herbstreit’s list. Penn State certainly could have had a case to make it, but the Buckeyes beat them in Week 5 27-26.

As long as Ohio State keeps winning, it seems impossible to keep the Buckeyes out of the top 4.
