Westgate SuperBook college power ratings, point spread breakdown

Louisiana-Monroe has climbed out of the cellar of the Westgate SuperBook’s college football power ratings.

The Warhawks pulled off a second straight upset, beating South Alabama 41-31 on Saturday as +425 underdogs. That win came a week after stunning Liberty 31-28 as 30-1 underdogs.

Monroe is now No. 125 in the ratings, with Massachusetts taking over the bottom spot.

The top of the ratings stayed the same, though Ohio State has climbed within a touchdown of Georgia on a neutral field. The Buckeyes gained two points to 102.5, seven behind Georgia at 109.5 and five behind Alabama at 107.5.
