Week four was our first "shakeup" Saturday of the season with every team in my Top 25 on the move except for one. That one team in the Alabama Crimson Tide who have been the lone constant this season. The Tide have looked the part of the nation's top team week in and out. After them, I believe the rest of the Top 5 (and maybe even the Top 10) is subjective.
My Top 10
| Rank | Team | Comment |
| #1 | Alabama | Beat Florida Atlantic 40-7. |
| #2 | Florida State | Won a 49-37 shootout against Clemson. Seminoles are looking more impressive each week. |
| #3 | Oregon | Dominated Arizona 49-0 |
| #4 | LSU | Scored a sloppy 12-10 win over Auburn. Ask Oklahoma and Clemson if they'd take sloppy wins today? |
| #5 | West Virginia | Won 31-21 over rival Maryland. |
| #6 | Georgia | Bulldogs get more impressive each week. |
| #7 | South Carolina | Demolished Missouri 31-10. |
| #8 | Stanford | IDLE |
| #9 | Notre Dame | Ugle 13-6 win over Michigan. See note on #4 LSU about ugly wins. |
| #10 | USC | Bounced back from last week's loss with 27-9 win over Cal |
I'm honestly not sold on USC at #10 but couldn't come up with a better option there.
