Stewart Mandel is one of FOX Sports' top college football analysts. That's what makes his list of top ten schools after Week 8 so brutal to look at. He has the first three schools right, but after that is when some questionable decisions were made. Here's the list to see for yourself:
RELATED: Louisville player tries to get flashy, gets suplexed instead
Mandel puts Louisville at No. 4 despite the head-to-head loss to Clemson right above it and a few other teams that are undefeated and have played better opponents. West Virginia, Washington and Nebraska are all still undefeated and should have been considered for higher spots.
RELATED: Kirk Herbstreit's top four gets a serious shakeup with Ohio State loss
Texas A&M and Ohio State on the list makes sense, just not where they're listed. the Buckeyes have been dominating almost everyone they've faced and lost to an unranked opponent, which is just not good enough for the No. 6 spot. The Aggies held up better against Alabama than anyone else who faced that defense so them making the list is totally fine.
