Wonder when the last time is that both Army and Navy were ranked at the same time?

ISU checks in as the highest ranked B12 team.

Gotta love Bama's control over the media and the media's desire to make sure Bama is in the playoff no matter what they end up looking like.

Bama struggles at home and has to rally to beat a mediocre South Carolina. Stays ranked the same.
Tennessee struggles at home and rallies to beat a mediocre Florida team in OT. Falls 3 spots.

I've thought Tennessee has been overhyped all year but it has become pretty clear the same applies to Bama.

Congrats OU and Nebraska. You're not in the Big 8 or even the Big 12 any longer. Enjoy spending the next 20 years in the "Others Receiving Votes" instead of your perennial positions in the past of Top 10 to Top 25 every year. Enjoy the money because you'll never see the trophies again.

It's been pretty much that way for Nebraska since they left the Big 12 in 2010. For OU it's a new thing, but I'm not going to be too surprised if it becomes a trend for them as well.

Yeah...i don't think Venables is the guy. The risk you take hiring a coordinator I guess.

Vandy plays Ball State this week, with a win they will be 5-2 and likely ranked and then would host another #1 - Texas.

with espn, it's real.

I clicked on most of the big 12 team pages on espn on Saturday and half of them had sec news at the top.

If I'm looking at a B12 team, why in the **** would I give a **** about an sec team?

It's stuff like that that we are pushed over and over. We are swimming in it and don't even realize it because it is so commonplace.

The Georgia State loss hurts them. But around that game, they've played very well this season. If you take that loss away, they're a top-15 team.

It's awesome that Army and Navy are playing as well as they are ... are are starting to get some legitimate respect for it.

I'm not sure how many know this but Navy coach Brian Newberry is a former Baylor football player.

I don't know if Baylor fans would be real keen on his modified Wing-T offense. They actually call it the "Fling-T" or the "millennial version" Wing-T because they do pass out of it a bit. But those who had trouble adapting to Jeff Nixon and Jeff Grimes' offenses would have a coronary watching Newberry's. Haha.

I personally wouldn't mind it at all. I don't care what scheme we run as long as we're successful and can recruit to it. And I love pairing a physical run game with a good, sound defense. I still think that's the best path to consistent success if you can do it.

Former Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo is proving at San Jose State, though, that coaches can change offensive philosophies and remain successful. He went from winning with the triple option at Navy to averaging 41 pass attempts per game this year in his first season at SJSU.

Just another example of why rankings should never be used.

They seem to benefit the big name schools the most, followed by whatever conferences and programs the networks need to push to get their money back.

Didn't you hear? There's no one in the Big 12 capable of staying on the field with the mighty Tigers and Ole Miss Rebels.

Rankings shouldn't even exist before Week 7. We don't know what any of these teams are until they've played at least three conference games.

Depending on how this year rolls out, the Big12, ACC, and even smaller leagues need to stick up to the P2, form an alliance if you have to, heck, do your own playoff.

I've said it forever, the SEC and especially the B10 are EXTREMELY overrated outside of the top couple squads

They all act like their S don't stink though... that's for sure!

If there was only a way to be certain that one of them would make it in.
