2010 Week 7 College Football Ratings and Rankings; Oregon #1, TCU #2, Boise St #3

For the third week in a row, Oregon finds themselves at #1 and by a wide margin.  But there is a lot of change behind them with half of the top-10 being new members.  And with Oregon's fairly tough schedule the remainder of the year (3 are top-25 in the rankings and  all 6 are top-50) that gap could change or they could solidify their stranglehold.

The change behind them starts with TCU leapfrogging Boise State to move to #2 due primarily to BSU playing a far weaker opponent than TCU this week.  Stanford moves to #4 based on prior opponents USC and Notre Dame winning big and their only loss being to far and away #1 Oregon on the road.  Missouri leaps into the top-10 at #5 and Oklahoma moves up right behind them.  Michigan State also joins the top-10 as does Utah and Auburn with Iowa a hold over from last week between them.

With several new teams in the top-10, it can be helpful to look at performance charts.  First lets compare Missouri and Oklahoma, particularly since they are in a virtual ratings tie and play next week.



Missouri has been on a steady climb playing their two best games of the season the last two weeks.  OU on the other hand had their big win over FSU early, then struggled in a few games before having a good performance against a not so strong Iowa State this week.


Michigan State started off playing creampuffs so hard to judge them early, but has hit their stride the last 3 weeks.


Auburn has been pretty consistent, with the big win over Arkansas key to them moving up.
