Paul Myerberg ranks every FBS team in college football on a weekly basis during the season and puts them all out there, 1-126.
In recent weeks he’s had to expand his rankings as every conference has decided to ultimately return to action this year and all but four independent programs have decided to play football for at least some amount of games.
With that, Myerberg ranked 1-126 this week and Notre Dame finds itself three spots lower in his poll than they did in this week’s Amway Coaches Poll Powered by USA TODAY.
Myerberg’s top ten:
Clemson, Ohio State, Alabama, Florida and Georgia come in 1-5. Then it’s Penn State, Oregon, Notre Dame, Central Florida and Miami 6-10.
In that group, Ohio State, Penn State and Oregon are yet to play any games as they check in before Notre Dame shows up.
Besides Clemson at the top spot, North Carolina checks in as Notre Dame’s highest ranked opponent at 18 while Pitt comes in next at 27.
