New entries: Temple, Pittsburgh.
Dropped out: Nebraska, Illinois.
Just a quick note that we now have a consensus #1 team for the first time this season: the Alabama Crimson Tide. Their whipping of Florida at the Gators' home field propels them into sole ownership of the top spot in both RBA and TFG. There are some discrepancies from there on down, but Alabama's dominance puts them head-and-shoulders above the rest of FBS for the time being.
