NCAA Football Power Rankings, Week 16

We had 5 bowls yesterday, so the Power Rankings have shifted just a little bit. My top 6 remained steady, but San Diego State jumped up to #7 from #17 by beating Houston. All the ties from last week are now untied, due to the subtle shifts in strength of schedule that cascade out to every active team's opponents, and their opponents, etc. It's a little odd to put out power rankings in the midst of bowl season, since the whole thing could be considered one final "week" of college football, but I don't want to wait until January to see where everyone lands.

Aside from the 5 FBS bowl games, there were 5 lower division games. The Celebration Bowl, considered the HBCU championship, was won by Grambling State. North Dakota State, who won the last 5 FCS titles, lost in one of the semifinals. The remaining teams, James Madison and Youngstown State, last won in 2004 and 1997, respectively. Division II was won by Northwest Missouri State, and Division III was won by Mary Hardin-Baylor.
