Collecting Week 5’s new college football rankings as they roll in

College football’s Week 4 was a good bit more active than anticipated, with Virginia Tech suffering the year’s biggest upset so far, Stanford pulling off a bizarre comeback against Oregon, and plenty of unranked teams taking down previously ranked teams (Kentucky over Mississippi State, Texas Tech over Oklahoma State, Texas over TCU, and Purdue over Boston College).

So the rankings entering Week 5 are getting a good bit of a shakeup, even if the top remains the same.

The usual disclaimers apply. The only ranking that matters in the end is the Playoff selection committee’s ranking on Selection Sunday, and the committee can change its mind suddenly. It doesn’t even start to release weekly Playoff rankings until around Halloween.
