New AP Poll Top 25 punishes Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas jumps to No 1 after big comeback

New AP Poll Top 25 punishes Ohio State, Oklahoma, Oregon, Texas jumps to No 1 after big comeback

Week two of the college football season delivered another series of typically chaotic results.

And the College Football Playoff picture has already shifted, thanks to several surprising outcomes.

The Oregon Ducks were expected to compete for a Big Ten Championship with the Ohio State Buckeyes and Indiana Hoosiers, only to barely escape against Boise State and get deservedly beaten by Oklahoma State .

The Cowboys' in-state rivals, the Oklahoma Sooners, lost on the road at Michigan, scoring just 10 points in the process.

Those Wolverines, left for dead after the asterisk-laden win over Western Michigan in week one, are suddenly right back in the playoff picture after beating a top-11 SEC opponent.

And of course, the Texas Longhorns won the game of the year over Ohio State, giving them a huge resume boost and a substantial leg up should they need an at-large playoff berth.

This week's AP Top 25 Poll reflects some of that chaos, while also providing a good example of the flaws with the "some wins are better than some losses" perspective shared by such figures as Nick Saban .

Here are this week's rankings , and what it means for the rest of the season.

One of the obvious takeaways? No matter what fans, coaches, or commentators say, it's clear that winning and losing is still king.

Even when "strength of schedule" is taken into account.

BYU, meanwhile, jumped a whopping four spots, leapfrogging some teams, after a 28-17 win over Arizona in Provo.

Indiana also moved up after beating up on Howard, as did Miami after a 77-7 win over hapless Florida A&M.

Why did those teams move up? Because Ohio State fell a remarkable five spots after a one-point loss on the road to Texas in a game in which they had a 20-point lead and were a missed field goal away from cruising home with a win.
