College Sports Journal FBS Group of Five Power Poll Top 20 — Week 6

Time is short again as our first game of the week is Tuesday with a big Sun Belt Conference with two division favorites meeting each other. Appalachian State visits Arkansas State in one of the top Group of Five match-ups.

Here is my Top 20 poll for this week within the Group of Five. UCF, South Florida, and Cincinnati remain as the only undefeated teams and are within my Top 4 with that Appalachian State wedged in at #3.

Here are my takes in the poll this week:
