Given what looks like an uninspiring performance today, I might be shifting my #1 next week. But it's hard to reward LSU for beating a woeful SC team.
Hard for me to reward arena ball teams like Baylor/TCU. My own #2 at the moment is Sparty, but do I reward them even for a hypothetical beatdown of Rutgers?

After all that ... maybe I just leave tOSU where they are after all :/

I just think Ohio State is playing down to their competition right now. I can imagine it's tough to get excited about playing Maryland.

Hell, imagine how hard it is for Maryland to get excited about playing AS Maryland ;)
