  1. Times college football rankings: Five California schools make the list

    Rankman has rarely been this excited about two recently "dropped out" teams playing on a Thursday night in Piscataway, N.J. The showdown between Rutgers and Louisville now features two teams representing three different conferences. Rutgers is joining the Big Ten in 2014 and Louisville just announced it is leaving the Big East for the Atlantic Coast. The Big East doesn't bother these days to stitch member names on its lettermen's sweaters — it uses Velcro. There is so much upheaval and mediocrity at the bottom of these rankings that Slippery Rock made it to the second-to-final cut. Five schools from California cracked the list but uthere was no room at the Top-25 Inn for hobos USC and California. Also, note the team at No. 20. This is the highest Rankman has been on Utah State since he used to put beer on ice in the sink while lodging at the Logan Motel Baugh.

  5. College football rankings: Alabama, Oregon, Kansas State, Notre Dame

    Rankman's steadfast "Never play on Election Tuesday" rule came back to bite Toledo when the Rockets forfeited their poll position by joining Mitt Romney in the loss column. Toledo, located in swing-state Ohio, lost to Ball State. Otherwise, it was "throw the bums out" week, as several schools lost their rankings seats. It took a lot of sock-drawer sifting to find worthy replacements. We elected to recast Texas in a more favorable light after the Longhorns' defense held somebody to fewer than 55 points. And San Diego State was extended a Blazing Saddles' "laurel and hearty" welcome after the Aztecs stunned Boise State on the blue field.

  7. Four-team playoff could be necessary this season in college football

    This weekend's very impatient, 6-year-old kid-like, takeaway question is: Why wait?
    This weekend's very impatient, 6-year-old kid-like, takeaway question is: Why wait? Can't we just convene a council of BCS bishops and start the four-team playoff now? It would be just like college football to have two spots available this year for four...

    Last weekend was a football carnival with jugglers, clowns, cotton candy, flamethrowers and sword swallowers. My favorite act was "The Bearded Bevo." It was fun in a nonthreatening, do-or-die way. Who besides Nick Saban didn't like West Virginia and...

  17. The Times' college football rankings: The top 25

    Monday night's NFL outrage with the officials reminds me of the time in 2010 that "replacement Rankman" put Boise State at No. 1 and kept the Broncos there until the Friday night after Thanksgiving. This week's standings offer their own controversial finish, with four Big Ten Conference schools bunched in the basement for what should be an exciting playoff two years in advance of college football's new format. The winner gets the Floyd of Rankman trophy, presented by John Deere, at imaginary Grain Silo Stadium. Bump-of-the-week goes to Kansas State, which rockets 10 spots to No. 6 after last week's triumph at Oklahoma. Coach Bill Snyder called from his Little Manhattan project to wonder why Rankman was not this excited about his 1998 team.
