It was a busy week, as teams who played FCS opponents leaped into the Top 25. We added five teams to the ranks, and saw some sharp movement from others. The biggest upset of the week cost Oklahoma State their ranking, as they were spanked by Houston. Wake Forest pulled off a stunner, too, as did Central Michigan. Here's the new ranking:
