Oregon, the only remaining unbeaten after losses by Indiana and Army, is the obvious choice at No. 1 on my Associated Press Top 25 ballot.
Rounding out the top five are Ohio State, Texas, Georgia and Penn State. My ballot consists of the same 25 teams as last week; they’ve just been shuffled around.
Here's my AP Top 25 ballot for Week 14 of the college football season compared with Action Network senior writer Collin Wilson’s betting power ratings.
Note: The "AP" column is my AP Poll ballot ranking for each team. The "PR" column is where each team sits in Action Network's betting power ratings.
