Oregon Rises in Week 12 AP Poll Following Win over Washington State
Oregon took care of business against Washington State Saturday night en route to a commanding 38-24. The Pac-12 North isn't decided just yet as Oregon State blew out Stanford 35-14, which was without starting quarterback Tanner McKee due to injury.
Some big matchups we saw this weekend included Ole Miss vs. Texas A&M, Baylor vs. Oklahoma, and Penn State vs. Michigan.
Here's the latest week 12 AP Poll.
Format: School (Record) | Previous ranking
1. Georgia (10-0) | 1
2. Alabama (9-1) | 3
3. Cincinnati (10-0) | 2
4. Oregon (9-1) | 5
5. Ohio State (9-1) | 6
6. Notre Dame (9-1) | 7
7. Michigan State (9-1) | 8
8. Michigan (9-1) | 9
9. Oklahoma State (9-1) | 10
10. Ole Miss (8-2) | 12
11. Baylor (8-2) | 18
12. Oklahoma (9-1) | 4
13. Wake Forest (9-1) | 13

18. Iowa (8-2) | 19
19. Wisconsin (7-3) | 20
20. Pittsburgh (8-2) | 25

23. San Diego State (9-1) | NR
24. Utah (7-3) | NR
25. North Carolina State (7-3) | 21
Some of the biggest movement we saw in this week's poll is Oklahoma dropping from No. 4 to No. 12 after losing to Baylor on the road in Waco and Pittsburg moving up five spots to No. 20 after beating North Carolina 30-23.
There wasn't much other noticeable movement this week, but we saw Utah as the only other Pac-12 school ranked inside the top 25. The Ducks will travel to Salt Lake City to face the Utes next week in what has quickly become the most highly-anticipated game that remains on the Oregon schedule.
The Ducks and Utes haven't played since they met in the 2019 Pac-12 championship game, which Oregon won 37-15 and two teams could face each other multiple times if they meet again in this year's Pac-12 championship game in Las Vegas.
