How do the rankings change?
Utah should be in the top 25. BYU does not deserve to drop based on the score (even though the win didn't feel very convincing). Pitt is done. Alabama will shoot up. VT will drop. Clemson takes a dive.
Any other thoughts? |

BYU probably won't drop. All most voters will see of the game is 41-17, and that isn't that bad. It's a spread of 24 points, just as expected.

Wasn't the spread 21.5? At least it was earlier in the week. Wonder why what would make it go up throughout the week?

Utah will be in. They were hovering right around 28th or so, so with Pitt losing and an impressive win, they should jump up. BYU will stay at 16.

Michigan, Oregon State, Texas A&M, Mississippi State, and Michigan State are all out of the running for a little bit. The Fresno State/Rutgers game will still have an affect. Tennessee should beat UCLA, so that shouldn't change anything. Louisville-Kentucky and CSU-Colorado don't matter. I expect Utah to come in at #23, and BYU to bump up to #15. The wildcard is how far up Alabama shoots. Also how many votes ECU gets.

As for Utah, I didn't know they were already so close to being ranked. If they're just outside, then yeah, the win over Michigan ought to be enough to put them in. Don't know why I ought to be "nervous," though.
