AP Poll Bloodbath - OutsiderFan - 10-02-2016

Down goes...

#3 Louisville (barely)
#7 Stanford (threw in towel)
#8 Wisconsin (on points, but not that close really)
#12 Florida State (TKO)
#17 Michigan State (on points, barely)
#18 Utah (KO in final round, while winning on most score cards)
#19 San Diego State (KO)
#21 TCU (On points, after big comeback)
#22 Texas (Retired)
#25 Georgia (KO at final round bell)

Baylor lucked out to avoid losing.
On top of that, previously undefeated ASU, went down.
 
All told, 10 of the Top 25 teams took losses.  After another week of observation, My Top 10:

1. Alabama
2. Clemson
3. Ohio State
4. Louisville
5. Michigan
6. Washington
7. Houston
8. Texas A&M
9. Tennessee
10. Miami

My guess is Stanford is about #15/16.  Sooo many teams from 12-25 lost, that it's hard to imagine Stanford falling as far as a team might ordinarily fall after getting thrashed.

Re: AP Poll Bloodbath - 2006alum - 10-02-2016

AP Poll was kind to us, IMHO. We got crushed and we're no. 15. Of interest:

#4 Michigan (up 1)
#6 Washington (up 3)
#15 Stanford (down 9)
#23 Colorado (NR)
#24 Utah (down 6)

UCLA and Arizona State receiving meaningful votes, ןɐɔ & Under Stanford Control (again) receiving a couple. Dead fake girlfriends no where to be seen, nor KSU.

Homecoming game may be a good one this year - as of now, the Buffs are the only ranked team left for us to play. Glad we get them at home instead of a mile up in the air!
