At SportsFormulator, we’re a fan of the little guy so we’re giving them a little pub in what will be a segment you can find weekly during college football season going forward, the non-BCS Top 25. We rank the 25 best college football teams not in the automatic qualified BCS conferences. You’ll get to see some of these teams face off against one another in the bowls so hopefully our rankings provide insight into which team will win. While a team like Boise State has broken through and become a regular in the Top 25 the past few years, we want to show who else is a team to look out for so here’s our first ever non-BCS (and Independents) Top 25.
1. Utah State
2. Fresno State
3. Boise State
4. Northern Illinois
5. Kent State
6. San Jose State
7. Arkansas State
8. San Diego State
9. Louisiana Tech
10. Central Florida
11. BYU
12. Toledo
13. Louisiana-Monroe
14. Middle Tennessee State
