The NCAA college football rankings are out for week 13 and after a crazy weekend of upsets, there’s only one constant in the top five teams of both polls from last week. And that is the fact the LSU Tigers are ranked No. 1.
LSU is followed by Alabama, Arkansas, Stanford and Oklahoma State in the AP Poll. In the USA Today Coaches’ Poll, they are followed by Alabama, Arkansas, Virginia Tech and Stanford.
There are no Big East teams ranked in the top 25 of the AP Poll. In the coaches’ poll, the West Virginia Mountaineers stay at No. 23 after being on a bye this past weekend. They are top team in the others receiving votes in the AP Poll.
The Rutgers Scarlet Knights are the only team from the Big East among the others receiving votes in both polls. The Cincinnati Bearcats are also among the others receiving votes in the AP Poll.
It’ll be interesting to see how the BCS Standings look when they come out later on Sunday night.
