College Football: Week 11 Polls & Schedule



Week 11 will be one to determine conference titles. Starting Thursday night we have TWO games that pit ranked teams against each other.  #2 Oregon (8-0, 5-0) vs #6 Stanford (7-1, 5-1) could decide the PAC-12 North title holder. #5 Baylor (7-0, 4-0) hosts #12 Oklahoma (7-1, 4-1) are both chasing unranked Texas (6-2, 5-0) in the Big 12, but the top two will play for the title. (At 7-1, 4-1 #15 Oklahoma State is also in the mix.) Then, on Saturday we have #1 Alabama against #10 LSU. And the AAC may see its title decided: Friday evening we have #20 Louisville (7-1, 3-1)--and they should be a lock to defeat the UConn Huskies who have yet to win a game--and then on Saturday we have #19 UCF (6-1, 3-0) hosting Houston (7-1, 4-0) the winner to be the AAC leader or, at the least, co-leader.Could be an interesting weekend.

The numbers on the right are for the Associated Press, the Coaches’ Poll, the BCS standings and the CBSSports.com 126. NR means that the team was Not Ranked by that particular poll. I’m not sure for the reason that the CBSSports Poll is so different from the others except that it is the result one man’s opinion and not much else. There is a way you can vote as to whether a team is ranked too low or too high.
