NCAA Football Power Rankings, Week 18

We've got a new #1! Of course, this isn't exactly fair because the Bowl Season is analogous to having a single week split up over about a month. But, Wisconsin, who I had at #4 to finish the season, but the committee did not see fit to put into the playoff, won their bowl against #11 Miami, to give them a strong strength of schedule boost, in addition to being the only 13-win team. UCF could see a similar boost on Monday, but against a slightly worse opponent. Ohio State also won their bowl over a strong USC team to jump over the playoff teams of Alabama and Oklahoma.

There are just 6 games left. 5 are Monday, including the 2 semifinals, with the championship game on the following Monday.
