Week 14 Power Rankings

Some big events this past week. How far did the Gators fall, on offense and defense, after their championship game collapse? How far did the Texas offense fall after getting stuffed by Nebraska? Can the Cincinnati D turn things around on defense before the Sugar Bowl? We'll see...

• Florida & Alabama: Florida's offensive ability didn't really drop, staying at 123% of what their opponents usually allow. That's because Alabama usually allows 249 ypg and 11.8 ppg - the Gators amassed 335 yards & 13 points. So their offense did what could reasonably be expected, from a certain perspective. Bama's offense on the other hand jumped from 123% to 134% after decimating the (still) stellar Florida D. That's the big change. Oppositely, the Florida D went from allowing just 49% of what their opponents usually gain to 54% overall, mainly because Bama tripled up the number of point the Gators usually allow, which was about their own average (31 ppg). But even that 54% keeps Florida at the very top of defensive units. Think about it this way - Bama played they way they normally do, both on offense and defense. Florida played they way Alabama opponents usually do.

• Offense: A good amount of non-BCS teams here, including the expected Houston, TCU, Boise State, but also Nevada, BYU, and down the list Idaho. Lots of ACC teams too. Interesting that we don't get to a Big10 team until Wisconsin at #23.

• Defense: Not too many changes - the SEC, Big10, and Big12 are tops here, followed by the Pac10 (still led by USC). Of the non-BCS teams, TCU and Boise State are here, along with Air Force, UCF, Utah, and Central Michigan. Solid.
