SB Nation BlogPoll College Football Rankings 2011


Poll breakdown after the break

Teams ranked exactly where BTD placed them

Alabama - BTD has had the Crimson Tide on top since the preseason and the rest of the nation has finally come around after their 27-11 win at Penn State this weekend.

Arkansas - Both BTD and the nation put the Razorbacks at #12 this week. Arkansas is 2-0 with blowout wins over Missouri State and New Mexico.

Pac-12 Breakdown

Stanford, Oregon, Arizona State, and USC represented the Pac-12 in the actual Top 25, coming in at 5th, 13th, 21st, and 24th, respectively. Stanford also received one first place vote.

Going down to the ARV category, you begin to see a lot of Pac-12 members. There's California at #34, Washington State at 36, and Utah at #45.

Oregon State Watch

The Beavers dropped out of the ARV category after their 35-0 loss against Wisconsin this weekend. The loss dropped them to 0-2 going into the bye week.
