Kirk Herbstreit releases updated college football top-six

ESPN college football analyst Kirk Herbstreit has ranked his top six teams in college football following Week 6 action, which featured some interesting storylines.

Texas A&M had a chance to go into Tuscaloosa and top Alabama from two yards out with three seconds to go. The Tide survived, beating the Aggies 24-20. Georgia used a dominant second-half performance to beat Auburn, 42-10, in Athens. Tennessee delivered the most impressive performance of the weekend with a 40-13 win over LSU in Death Valley.
