My current Top 10 would be:
Texas
Florida
Alabama
Va. Tech
Miami
USC
Oregon
LSU
Ohio St.
Oklahoma
Of course we know which games are big without having to look at the rankings, rankings aren't necessary for people who actually follow the sport. My point was that I could know a game was a big deal when I see #1 and #4 play even if I hadn't followed college football at all. That is why rankings exist, to draw in fans that might not know what is going on but that know #1 against #4 is a big deal.
