College Football Rankings: Oregon Takes Top Spot In Week 13 USA Today Poll

The Big Ten may not have a runaway champion, but the conference still has a few very good teams.

Three Big Ten teams take spots in the top 10 of the USA Today coaches poll for Week 13, with Wisconsin leading the way in fifth. Ohio State follows in seventh, and Michigan State re-enters the top 10 at 10th.

In its last year with 12 teams, the Big 12 is putting up a performance worth remembering.

Five Big 12 teams are ranked in the USA Today coaches poll for Week 13, but all five are in the top 18 teams ranked.

I’m tired of trying to explain the SEC’s “down year”: it’s not “down,” just different.

Six SEC teams show up in the USA Today coaches poll for Week 13, pacing all Football Bowl Subdivision conferences, and five are in the top 17. That is the exact same thing I wrote in this space last week, except for the Week 13 part.
