Pacific Takes Top 25 11/30: Stanford creeps towards the Top Four

Matt Cashore-USA TODAY Sports

Three Pac-12 teams are in the Top 25 this week.

1. Clemson

2. Oklahoma

3. Alabama

4. Iowa

5. Michigan State

6. Stanford

The Cardinal have some flaws and don't have a  stellar resume, but that is pretty much the case with every team in this Top 25. They have some issues, but I could easily see them beating any team in the country right now and got a huge win over Notre Dame that is among one of the best wins by any team this year in a weird year.

7. Ohio State

8. North Carolina

9. Notre Dame

10. Oklahoma State

11. Baylor

12. TCU

13. Northwestern

14. Florida State

15. Florida

16. Michigan

17. Wisconsin

18. Utah

The Utes faltered down the stretch, but they toughed out a win against Colorado and finished the regular season 9-3. I will also give them the edge over Oregon because of how thoroughly they thrashed the Ducks earlier in the season.

19. Oregon

The Ducks cooled off a bit in the second half of the Civil War, but still got the win and closed out the regular season on a six-game win streak. They are one of the last teams in the country that anyone wants to play right now.

20. Mississippi

21. Houston

22. LSU

23. Georgia

24. Navy

25. Temple
