Goff Rankings
Well the rankings took a bit of a hit in playoff time.
This isn't the first time that's happened, and the reason is even more pronounced—we don't see a lot of teams cross over from one conference to another, or even from one division within a conference to the other side, and in this post-COVID-shutdown time that lack of crossover data has been even tougher to make up for.
Texas A&M enters the top 25 and we could see Army make it into the top 4, or higher, after they face Lindenwood in a week.
Of course Army has to deal with Air Force first of all.
It's Week 10 and the Power Index is back with some key questions ... and maybe some answers.

We've got another new #1 in our DIAA rankings.
Now, in the past we've had situations where a lower-ranked team has beaten the #1 team and not gone to #1. This has happened recently. In addition, those who are Dartmouth fans might—quite legitimately—point to the fact that Queens University lost to Army, and Dartmouth beat Army, so why shouldn't #2 Dartmouth move up to #1?
This was a week of several rankings upsets.
Most of them came about because a) a team that had built its ranking on good early results faded due to injuries, or other challenges; b) the opposite happened, and a team that lost an early game or two just got better, got players back from injury, or got some late recruits; or c) we just had it wrong.
