The first week of the college football season was not what most would call memorable.

Only one game in FBS featured ranked opponents playing each other. And even it wasn’t close as No. 8 Florida State rolled No. 5 LSU, 45-24. That result – and South Carolina’s against North Carolina – led to an unexpected first batch of SEC power rankings.
