My Top 25: Week 8

Every week it seems that at least one Top 10 team loses.  Last week, both Oklahoma and LSU lost to tams that are now in the Top 10.  LSU fell much further than Oklahoma based on their total lack of an offense and the general lack of faith that I have in them.  Oklahoma only feel to #11 because they own an extremely impressive win over #12 Florida State and head-to-head results are very meaningful.  Missouri finally proved that they are for real and jumped eleven spots, all the way to #7.  This week provides another chance for the Tigers to prove their worth as they travel to Lincoln to face Nebraska. Wisconsin jumped to the front of the one-loss teams because they have the most impressive record, with wins versus Ohio State and at Iowa.  Their only loss also happens to be at #6 Michigan State.  Georgia Tech, Kansas State, and Texas all fell out of the Top 25 after losing.  They were replaced by Miami, East Carolina, and Baylor.  The Bears can solidify their Top 25 ranking if they can win this week at Texas.  Here are the rankings for this week:
