Joel Klatt's College Football Rankings: OSU is Still No. 1, But Michigan Awaits

Rivalry Week is here, but before those matchups are played, Joel Klatt has a new top 15 for you. Ohio State might be undefeated now, but as Klatt notes in this week's podcast, there isn't a player on their roster that's ever beaten Michigan — and no Michigan player on their roster has ever lost to Ohio State.

That's Saturday, though, and there are 13 other teams in these rankings. Here's a full look at Klatt's top 15 teams in the nation following Week 13.

Klatt's take: Vandy beat Kentucky, 45-17. Pavia went off. Quarterback Diego Pavia has been a bright spot in college football. I've loved watching him play. I think he's going to be up for some of these awards, nationally. But listen, this is a guy who has given his heart and soul and changed the game in a lot of ways with that lawsuit for former junior college players, which, by the way, helped out a lot of players throughout the country. Almost every one of these games that I call, there's a player that benefited from the ruling that Diego Pavia championed in getting that extra year of eligibility. And so he's taken advantage of that, and Vandebilt has been terrific under coach Clark Lea.

Klatt's take: Miami beat Virginia Tech 34-17 on the road. QB Carson Beck threw for 320 yards and four touchdowns with only five incompletions, so he was efficient. He was ready to go.

Miami has won three straight by at least three scores, so they're making their College Football Playoff case. I just don't know if it's going to be enough, because I think we all realize if we watch the games and
