Men DI College Rankings Week 15

Life v USC from two weekends ago. Sean Rayford photo.

There are still too few games going on in Men's DI college to really make big shifts, and so we welcome a few more teams in action this week (Clemson playing Navy is a big one; Cal v Arizona State is, too. Navy also plays Life. So that's fun).

Because there's not a enough action to justify moving some teams down, Long Beach State and Central Florida sit waiting to get into the Top 50.  BUT - some results happened. We knew that Utah and UCLA were ranked too low, and that the winner of the game they played on Saturday would move up, and the loser might, too. As it turned out, Utah won 38-0, and jumped to #15. That was a bit of a surprise. UCLA doesn't move up as a result. Cal losing to UBC wouldn't usually penalize them much, except they lost at home in a game they usually win, and they flat didn't have a good day. With St. Mary's having played very well in the games they've had, and Arkansas State beating a strong Glendale men's club, those two have to move up, and Cal down, to #5.

Lindenwood edges up after two good victories, and Central Washington moves up after it has become apparent that they are good enough to blow out everyone in their conference.

Colorado State, Washington, and Cal Poly all get bumps after winning.

What to watch for: Central Florida starts winning in 15s again. CSULB or possibly Santa Barbara City College or University of San Diego emerge as the ranked team from the Gold Coast. If it's USD, watch for Grand Canyon to get a look, too.
