A total of four Big 12 teams made the latest US LBM Coaches Poll following the conclusion of the college football regular season.
Texas Tech remains the highest-ranked Big 12 program, moving up one spot to No. 6, following a 49-0 win over West Virginia. BYU punched its ticket to Arlington by taking down UCF at home and remains at No. 11.
Utah fell short of the Big 12 title game and beat Kansas, but dropped to No. 15. The fourth and final Big 12 team in this week’s poll is Arizona, which entered the rankings, moving up nine spots to No. 22.
Houston (73), TCU (5) and Arizona State (2) are the Big 12 teams receiving votes.
The most significant move of the week was from the Wildcats, as noted above. Tennessee, on the other hand, fell six spots to No. 19. SMU and Pitt are the two teams to drop out of the poll, replaced by Arizona and Navy.
The top 10 received a slight shakeup, with Georgia, Oregon, Mississippi, and Texas Tech all moving up one spot from No. 3 to No. 6 after Texas A&M’s loss.
