I still can't figure out why Michigan would be in the top 25.

Here's the Top 25 from solecismic's Football Frontier:

1. LSU
2. USC
3. South Florida
4. California
5. Arizona State
6. Oregon
7. West Virginia
8. Kentucky
9. Ohio State
10. Florida
11. Missouri
12. Auburn
13. UCLA
14. Wisconsin
15. Georgia
16. Oklahoma

18. Boston College
19. Cincinnati
20. Indiana
21. South Carolina
22. Illinois
23. Boise State
24. Texas
25. Virginia Tech

Wow Hawaii dropped out completely of football frontier polls.

I still can't figure out why Michigan would be in the top 25.

23. Michigan (3-2)
W, at Northwestern
next game: Eastern Michigan
The Ranking Should Be Higher Because … all the parts are coming back together. Sort of. Chad Henne had a nice day against Northwestern, and when it had to, the offense turned it on to come away with the road win.
The Ranking Should Be Lower Because ... this ranking is a gift. The Penn State win doesn’t appear to be that big a deal anymore, and it took way too much effort to beat a bad Northwestern team that was missing Tyrell Sutton. One more week of being mediocre, even in a win, and it’s out of the top 25.

Wow Hawaii dropped out completely of football frontier polls.
