Overall Rationale: Look...I don't want to talk about what happened in Manhattan on Saturday. Let's talk about other things! Tennessee is back in front of Alabama (and also jumps ahead of Clemson for their highest TERSE ranking ever), and Kansas State soars into the top ten for...reasons. Illinois and LSU are up to the top fifteen, Tulane is up to the top twenty, and UNC and Notre Dame join the rankings at the expense of Cincinnati and Oregon State (just when the AP ranked them, too). Oh yeah, and Texas A&M is now second-to-last in the SEC.
