NCAA Football Power Rankings, Week 6

The real polls weren't shaken up all that much this week, but in the Wilson Rankings, #1 Northwestern lost and dropped to #9. Somewhat curiously the team that beat them, Michigan, is only #10, despite identical records. Florida is the new #1, up from #2 with a win over Missouri.

Speaking of my adopted home team, Missouri, they dropped from #28 to #42, and are now in the territory where we're just hoping to be bowl eligible.

Revisiting my season-long what-if, if LSU had won their opener against McNeese State instead of it being canceled, they'd rise from #13 to #2, and #2-#12 would all fall one spot. This week, the only other change in the whole 128 team ranking would be that UCLA would tie Oklahoma for #31, instead of being #32. That's fairly stable, because as LSU wins more, their "missing" win is affecting their opponents much less. Of course, it's affecting LSU by 11 whole positions.
