Tom Fornelli's College Football Power Ratings: Ohio State falls with Julian Sayin out

Key Points:

• Georgia outplayed Auburn despite the loss, with mistakes such as dropped passes and running into their center costing them the game; their overall strength remains intact.
• Miami's rise in power ratings after a double overtime win over Florida State is more due to downgrades of other teams than their own performance, indicating caution in overrating their position.
• Ohio State dropped in rankings due to uncertainty at quarterback, while Notre Dame's offense showed limitations against BYU, highlighting concerns about their offensive ceiling.
• Indiana, despite a loss, shows promising long-term prospects with a healthier roster and a more favorable remaining schedule compared to Ohio State, making them a valuable team to watch.
• Tennessee's defense is emerging as potentially elite, consistently limiting opponents' scoring and posing a significant challenge for future opponents, though their offense remains a concern.
