Two weeks into the season and a few surprises have notched knots on the heads of many pundits. Meanwhile, I continue to base rankings on the old fashion way – they earn it by playing someone noteworthy and winning.
From Last Week
- Up – Michigan
- Down – LSU, Utah
- Out – Boise State, TCU, Maryland, BYU, Fresno State, Notre Dame, Kansas State
- New – most of the list
What? How can Boise State be out? It’s simple: last weekend they did not play and Va. Tech lost to James Madison. Maybe they’ll return in a few weeks.
