With the first six weeks of the 2013-2014 college football season in the books, fans across the country are beginning to wonder what the first official BCS Standings (Bowl Championship Subdivision) will look like. Defending champion Alabama is off to another perfect start thanks to a couple of keynote victories. Taking down 2012 Heisman Trophy winner Johnny Manziel and the Texas A&M Aggies this season, the Crimson Tide also enjoyed a big time victory over then No. 21 Ole Miss, solidifying their rank at the top of the college football world.

National Championship contenders Oregon, Clemson, Ohio State, Stanford and Florida State are also undefeated through six weeks, adding a heightened level of intrigue as to who the first BCS Poll will place in the top 2 spots. While the Crimson Tide are all but a certainty as the No. 1 team in all polls, the coveted No. 2 slot becomes a heated discussion. Many believe the Oregon Ducks, led by Heisman Trophy candidate Marcus Mariota, deserve the honor while others feel rising freshman star Jameis Winston and the Florida State Seminoles should land at number 2.

Though the first official BCS rankings for the 2013-2014 season won't release until Week 8 of the current season, many have already started the task of ranking each team based on overall record, schedule and other major factors.
