2015 Rankings Premiere! Top 25 and Heisman Favorites - After Week 7

So ends the Cardale Jones half of the 2015-15 season. Now that we've actually seen the teams play a few times and have a factual basis for comparing them, it's time to break out the Let's Go Bucks! Index, which is about as relevant as the AP and Coaches' polls in the playoff era.

Rankings, as always, are based on what teams have done so far, not how we believe they will finish. The top 4 teams indicated below have NO RELATION to the teams we think will appear in the playoff. If the season ended today, THE PLAYOFF WOULDN'T HAPPEN BECAUSE THAT'S NOT HOW IT'S DESIGNED.
