Experimented with just putting the rankings in with the college basketball thread, but they kinda get lost there, and I figured that will all the shakeups this week, a thread for reranking the teams was pretty easily justified.

I see Ohio State's still getting hosed here. There's no way in hell that they should be behind a four loss Michigan State team or a three loss Boston College team who's best win on the year was over Oklahoma State.

 

Also, even though Texas is now widely accepted as a Top Ten team, the one-loss Tennessee team that beat them can't even crack the Top 25. Of course, that Tennessee game was something like three weeks ago, I can see how it's completely off the radar.
