NCAA Football Power Rankings, Week 7

I only added one team this week - UMass. They have no more games scheduled for the year. So they'll finish their season scoreless, having lost their lone game 41-0.

BYU won again and held onto that #1 slot. I mentioned last week I wasn't sure what sort of conference distribution would push its leader highest in the overall rankings (i.e., half the teams nearly perfect and half nearly winless, or an even spread of wins, etc.), but admittedly I didn't realize BYU is an FBS independent. That just throws one more wrench into the machine. The real polls have them at #12, Clemson up at #1, and SMU at #16

Missouri didn't play this week due to Vanderbilt's health issues, so they remain 1-2, and lost 5 spots to fall to #57.

Neither UL Monroe or Vanderbilt (as mentioned) played this week, but UL Monroe's schedule strength fell below Vanderbilt's, and they're your new worse team for the year.
