The Mo Knows Ranking System

Well, there was quite a shake-up in the ranking system, as to be expected based on the results of the games this weekend. Oklahoma dropped from 4 to 7 after losing to the former number 3, Texas. OK State and Florida made huge jumps, based on their records and on their victories over top 10 opponents. Missouri, who was the number one team last week, dropped to number 21. 5 teams jumped into the rankings this week by being victorious and becoming an above .500 team (Troy, Louisville, New Mexico State, Iowa, and Stanford), while 8 teams dropped from the rankings as losses put them at .500 (Nevada, East Carolina, Colorado State, Illinois, Clemson, Wisconsin, Nebraska, and Colorado). The total number of teams ranked went from 59 to 56.
