3 MWC teams in the top 25 4 games into the season is fantastic. I'm surprised Utah moved up three spots. I figured they'd move up to 19 or 18, so 17 is a nice surprise. Bring on Weber St.!

With Utah State and the Bye BYU is going to move unless top 10 teams drop. And even then the likes of Penn State will jump them.

But 3 MWC teams in the top 25 is impressive.

This is great for the MWC. I don't think there has ever been 3 teams ranked at the same time. I hope that TCU can give Oklahoma a game this week.

BYU and Utah will both probably be passed during their bye weeks, that's just how it goes. Only two teams who were ranked just ahead of Utah lost this weekend, but Utah moved up 3 spots not 2 because they jumped Kansas, who had a bye.

TCU moved up more spots in the rankings than expected this week because the voters in the Big 12 region wanted them to be ranked when facing Oklahoma.
