The Bottom-Ten illustrious group of teams had a good week and actually went 6-4 for the week. But, before we get too excited, keep in mind 4 of those victories were against FBS schools. But, they still go down in the win column and for these guys that is a big deal. Before, any further ado, let’s see the new list.
NO.10: ARIZONA The Wildcats played their way into the poll with a convincing 21-19 loss to FBS Northern Colorado. They replace fellow PAC-12 rival, Washington, who escaped this hellhole. Next Loss: at Oregon
NO.9: RICE: The Owls also are a debut into the poll and they deserve it after that award-winning performance against Texas. Next Loss:Texas Southern
NO.8 BOWLING GREEN They moved down a spot after a win over Murray State. Beat a Division 1 school Falcons, and you can be set free. Next Loss: at Minnesota
NO.7 GEORGIA SOUTHERN The Eagles have been on the radar since week 1 and, quite frankly, have been somewhat overlooked. Not any more. Not only do they make the poll, but they enter at No. 7 and are looking to move up. Next Loss: Louisiana
NO.6 LOUISIANA MONROE: The Warhawks actually won this week 12-7 over Jackson State and they move down one spot. Next Loss: Troy
NO.5 UNLV: This team continues to move up and reach their goal of winning the Bottom-10 title. Next Loss: Fresno State
NO.4 AKRON: What a week for the Zips! They won a game and it doesn’t matter that nobody knows who the team is they beat. They drop down from 4 to 2. Next Loss: at Ohio State (ouch)
NO.3 OHIO Another drop down for the Bobcats after their 49-14 loss on Friday night. Next Loss: at Northwestern
NO.2 UMASS: The Minutemen continue their march to the top and they have landed in the runner-up spot. They are focused and are working on their consistency and preparation and hoping not to peak too soon. Next Loss: at Coastal Carolina
NO.1 UCONN Talk about consistency. For the third week in a row, the Huskies were ultra- impressive in convincing voters to keep them at the No. 1 spot. Giving up 52 points and losing by at least 30 will keep you at the top. Next Loss: Wyoming
Dropped out: Washington, Colorado State, New Mexico State
Dishonorable Mention: Navy, Kansas, Florida State
