SB Nation BlogPoll College Football Top 25 Rankings
Not a whole lot of moves this week. Michigan is up five and Duke is IN this week's BlogPoll ballot at number 21 in what has to be a BC Interruption first. TCU and Cincinnati are bounced, while South Carolina and West Virginia tumble.
I don't love this ballot. There's plenty of perfectly imperfect teams on this list. Louisville is 7-0 but the Cardinals' seven opponents have a combined record of 14-32. Mississippi State's opponents are 19-25. Rutgers? 19-22. Boise State's lone blemish on the year is to now 4-4 Michigan State. Did I mention Duke is ranked?
By conference: SEC (6), Big 12 (4), PAC-12 (4), ACC (3), Big East (2), Big Ten (2), Independent (1), MAC (1), Mountain West (1), WAC (1). Maybe next week: Cincinnati, TCU, Nebraska, Texas, Texas A&M
