After five weeks, there are twenty undefeated teams left in the FBS. A fun fact about each:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>#1 Ohio State has been playing with fire: two of their wins are by a single touchdown.<\/li>\n<li>#2 TCU\u2019s Trevone Boykin broke Andy Dalton\u2019s school record for passing TDs last week; he now has 74.<\/li>\n<li>#3 Baylor\u2019s lowest scoring output this year is 56 points. They\u2019re averaging a shade under 64 per game.<\/li>\n<li>#4 Michigan State hasn\u2019t had to leave the state of Michigan yet; their first trip outside the Great Lakes State is this weekend against Rutgers.<\/li>\n<li>#5 Utah has perhaps one of the best non-conference wins in their season-opener 24-17 win over Michigan; the Utes are the only team to score more than seven points on the Wolverines.<\/li>\n<li>#6 Clemson has two wins against Power 5 schools by an average of 2.5 points, and two against non-Power 5 by an average of 35 points.<\/li>\n<li>#7 LSU\u2019s Leonard Fournette became the first SEC running back to rush for over 200 yards in three straight games in their win over Eastern Michigan.<\/li>\n<li>#9 Texas A&amp;M is the lowest-ranked team with a first-place vote; it helps that they have two wins over then top-25 competition.<\/li>\n<li>#10 Oklahoma has a win by single digits (31-24 over Tennessee), by 10-19 points (52-38 over Tulsa), by 20-29 (44-24 over West Virginia), and by 30+ (41-3 over Akron).<\/li>\n<li>#11 Florida has followed three wins by a touchdown or less over unranked teams with a 28-point win over the then-#3 team in the country.<\/li>\n<li>#12 Florida State has played both of its conference games on the road, and somewhat struggled; they\u2019ve won by 14 and 8 points. They don\u2019t play on the road again until the 24<sup>th<\/sup> of October.<\/li>\n<li>#13 Northwestern had its first shutout of a Big Ten team in twenty years on Saturday in a 27-0 win over Minnesota.<\/li>\n<li>#21 Oklahoma State had their second straight game with a game winning field goal in the last minute in a 36-34 win over Kansas State.<\/li>\n<li>#22 Iowa is the only team in the country that has not given up a rushing touchdown.<\/li>\n<li>#23 California is off to its first 5-0 start since 2007. Hopefully it turns out better in the end; the Bears finished 7-6 that year.<\/li>\n<li>#24 Toledo owns two wins over Power 5 teams (Arkansas and Iowa State); they\u2019re the only two Power 5 teams the Rockets will play.<\/li>\n<li>Houston has the #4 offense in the country; only Baylor, TCU, and Texas Tech average more yards per game.<\/li>\n<li>Temple is off to its first 4-0 start since 1974; counting the previous year, that team at one point had a 14-game winning streak, the longest in school history.<\/li>\n<li>Memphis has the #4 scoring offense in the country; only (you guessed it) Baylor, TCU, and Texas Tech score more points per game.<\/li>\n<li>Navy averages the third-most rushing yards per game in the country.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>In small school news, Minnesota State beat Upper Iowa 38-10 on Saturday to improve to 5-0.\u00a0 The Mavericks, currently ranked the #1 team in Division II, have won 38 straight conference games, and have not given up a point in the second half of any game thus far this year, outscoring opponents 129-0. \u00a0The Mavericks were the Division II runner-up last year to Colorado State-Pueblo; will this be the year they win their first football national championship?<\/p>\n<p>Congratulations to <strong>AllySun<\/strong>, who wins week 5 with 171 points! \u00a0Tied for second were <strong>JG Bama<\/strong> and <strong>pachyderm<\/strong>, who each had 169 points.<\/p>\n<p>Standings after five weeks (dropping two lowest weeks\u2019 scores):<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">1<sup>st<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>JG Bama <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">735<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">2<sup>nd<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>AUsomeTiger <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">733<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">3<sup>rd<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>Jeff4Bama <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">731<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">4<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>JagRag <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">728<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">5<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>GatorBamaLover <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">727<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">T-6<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>AllySun <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">726<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">T-6<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>Ralphie <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">726<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">8<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>AUBrian <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">725<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">9<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>Crimson White <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">724<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td width=\"49\">10<sup>th<\/sup><\/td>\n<td width=\"128\"><strong>JagAL <\/strong><\/td>\n<td width=\"43\">723<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p>As the seasons change and the air gets cooler, the games get tougher!\u00a0 The first game this week is Washington at USC, <strong>Thursday, October 8 @ 9 PM ET<\/strong>, so make sure to get your picks in by then!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome to October!
