Major movement in the Comprank NCAA college football rankings today, as there were many high-ranked teams that were upset this weekend. As expected, LSU and USC remain #1 and #2, respectively, although both had to fend off their opponents before finally claiming victory. Moving up significantly are South Florida to #3 (!), Cal to #4, Arizona State to #5, Auburn to #8, Florida State to #15, UCLA to #16, and Illinois, Kansas State, Colorado, and BYU to spots #22-25, respectively. All of these are major moves due to big upsets and/or great play by these teams. Falling down today are West Viriginia, Oregon, Florida, Oklahoma, and Texas -- all victims of big upsets this weekend. Also on the down-low are Penn State, who seem to have a prolonged case of Michigan-itis, or perhaps the Illini are that good. And of course, what would a wrap-up be without mentioning Notre Dame, who managed to lose their 5th out of 5 games so far this season, this time @ Purdue by 33-19. That being said, the Irish did cover the spread and were able to move up to #106. Despite expected losses for the next 3 weeks, they may even rise further due to a ridiculous schedule of @ #16 UCLA, and home games against #14 Boston College and #2 USC. Good luck Jimmy Clausen -- hope you make it through alive. |
