New rankings are up!! How far did the mighty (Penn State, Texas, Florida State) fall? Can 5-0 Navy finally get some AP love? And did Massachusetts break into the top 25 after keeping it close against Western Michigan? Let's find out!!

Biggest Gain: A whole bunch o' teams gained 5 spots in the middle of the rankings. Missouri, Michigan, Notre Dame, Illinois, BYU, Virginia all gained 5 spots to #'s 14 through 19. If we look at "Others" then Memphis gained 6 spots from #29 to #23.

Biggest Loss: I needed to break out a calculator for this one. In the top 25, Iowa State fell 8 to #22 and Florida State fell 7 to cling to #25. Looking out to "Others" Texas fell 18 spots to #27 but your big loser is Penn State who fell 21 spots to #28. Ouch!

Best result for a loser: The "best" result for a team that lost was Vandy, who slips 4 spots to #20 after losing to the now-ranked #8 Crimson Tide.

Worst results for a winner: Oklahoma beat Kent State 44-0, and fell 1 spot in the process to #6. Also notable is Oregon who fell 1 spot after having a bye as they swap spots with Miami, who is now the #2 team in the nation. And if you look waaaaaaaaaaaaaay out in "Others", we see Navy show up at #37. In a strange quirk of fate, only 35 teams received votes last week so essentially Navy was in a 100 way tie for #36 last week and dropped a spot. And Auburn shows up at #39 after receiving a single vote this week after a bye when they didn't get one last week.

As predicted both Penn St and Texas no longer ranked..

Boy as long as Tennessee gets by Arkansas at home this weekend...the always looming Bama game could be BIG

Also...surprises so far..Ga Tech...sneaky sneaky undefeated and looming around the top 10

don't underestimate the Ga/Aub game in Auburn at night. Could end up being a trap game for Georgia who is feeling good coming off Kentucky and moving back into the top 10. They lose 1 more game and they will be joining Texas, Penn St. and Florida St.

My favorite computer ranking, the Colley Bias Free Matrix, put them at #76 after this weekend.

FYI: There are rumblings in Chestnut Hill that Bill O'Brien and Penn State may be interested in each other.... I am not 100% sold on that notion but I definitely think it is intriguing enough to mention....

Frames Janklin may have finally outlived his welcome? That would be interesting. Like you, I'm not sold on B'OB but at this point I can appreciate that PSU fans are ready for a change.

The thing about Small Games James (can I still call him that after UCLA?) is that, if we’re being fair, he’s not an atrocious coach. They made the playoffs last year and PSU is no stranger to the top 10.

He just is completely incapable of taking that step into the realm of championship contender, a realm Penn State has not visited in quite some time.
