In the middle of my bye week, things go from bad to worse for our former #1. TCU, fresh off their upset loss to Texas Tech, that dropped them from #1 to #8, lose in week 4 to #12 Oklahoma State 38-21. TCU is now 1-2, 0-2 in the Big 12. Stanford had the biggest drop from last week, plummeting from #6 all the way to #22. Mississippi State meanwhile, after knocking off #2 Auburn last week, made the jump from unranked to #17 this week. Boise State, after beating #9 UCF in week 3, moved up from #12 to #5.

After our massive shakeup last week with #1 TCU, #2 Auburn and #6 Stanford all losing, this week, Oklahoma is now #1, up from #3, Wisconsin is #2, up from #4, Penn State is #3, up from #5, Alabama is #4, up from #7, and Boise State is #5, up from #11.

Mors, sad to report, West Virginia is still searching for their first win, as they drop to 0-4 on the year after losing to 45-7 at Maryland. Jaymo, it was another rough week for Arizona State as well, as ASU lost to #17 Mississippi State, 42-14.
