Lev’s Top 25, Week 1: A new No. 1 (Notre Dame) and No. 2 (Miami); how far did Oregon fall?

College football again gave us a five-day smorgasbord of action — capped by a Labor Day finale between SMU and Florida State that was delayed an hour and 40 minutes because of a power outage and kicked off without much of the technology we’ve become accustomed to.

It was one final dose of what college football always provides — chaos.

Below you’ll find my Top 25 — plus five — heading into Week 2. Each week I’ll provide a handful of tidbits about the ranking — why teams moved up, down, in or out.

– One week in, and we already have a new No. 1. Former No. 1 Oregon falls to No. 5 after a shaky home performance vs. Boise State. Notre Dame takes the top spot after dominating Wisconsin in the second half Sunday.

– Miami and LSU also moved up into the top five. Both battered Power Four opponents. I will always reward strength of schedule, especially this time of year, when most ranked teams are feasting on cupcakes.

– For that reason, Boise State actually moved up, as did Louisville, which went toe to toe with higher-ranked Ole Miss before losing on a walk-off field goal.

– UCLA also got a strength-of-schedule bump, going from unranked to No. 23 after pulling away from Cal in Berkeley late Saturday.

– Michigan fell out of the Top 25 and barely made the First Five Out after its debacle of a performance vs. Western Michigan (the Hail Mary redo notwithstanding).
