The Post's college football rankings after Week 11 are as follows:
1. Oregon (10-0) (Last week: 1)
The fact that Oregon was only challenged once by Ohio State in its first year in the league doesn't speak too highly of the Big Ten. The Ducks' other six league games have been decided by an average margin of 24.6 points.
2. Ohio State (8-1) (3)
In two weeks, the whole Indiana story will be over. With a win, the Buckeyes keep their Big Ten title hopes alive. Even if they lose, the playoffs are not guaranteed.
3. Texas (8-1) (4)
Their opponent, Florida, was a stinker. But it still mattered after a shaky performance from Texas quarterback Quinn Ewers, who had five touchdown passes and a season-high 333 yards through the air.
4. Tennessee (8-1) (5)
The Volantes hold the fate of the SEC Championship in their hands. If they win, including Saturday's win over Georgia, they will play for the conference crown for the first time since 2007.
5. Penn State (8-1) (7)
It's back to James Franklin's sweet spot: being a mediocre guy in the Big Ten. Whether that's enough for Penn State to make the playoffs without a big win remains to be seen.
6. Notre Dame Cathedral (8-1) (8)
Only two teams, Army and Ohio State, have scored fewer points per game than the Irish. In Notre Dame's only loss, a home game against Northern Illinois, the defense allowed just 16 points.
7. Indiana (10-0) (9)
For the first time in school history, Indiana has won 10 games, but the Hoosiers aren't done yet. A win at Ohio State in two weeks will almost guarantee a berth in the Big Ten championship game.
8.BYU (9-0) (10)
BYU has some TCU magic in 2022. There have been four wins by six points or less, and three wins when the team was leading at halftime.
9. Alabama (7-2) (NR)
This was classic Alabama at LSU on Saturday night. They rushed for 311 yards and forced three turnovers, giving their opponents no hope of a comeback.
10. Ole Miss (8-2) (NR)
Ole Miss did the same thing to Georgia that Georgia does to everyone else. He dominated the line of scrimmage, played from the front and let the defense do the rest.
dropout: Georgia (7-2) and Miami (9-1)
Heisman watch (predicted order of finish)
RB Ashton Giunty, Boise State
Giunty is the fourth player this year to rush for over 200 yards and the fifth time he has scored at least three touchdowns. It's a year of attention, with playoff participation also in sight.
WR/CB Travis Hunter, Colorado
The Buffaloes are in position to advance to the Big 12 Championship Game with a one-win season minus two. The dynamic Hunter was essential to that turnaround.
QB Cam Ward, Miami
Ward was productive Saturday, throwing for 348 yards and three scores, but Miami needed his talent. In the end, the Hurricanes were unable to escape again, coming close to losing several times this fall before ultimately losing to Georgia Tech.
QB Dillon Gabriel, Oregon State
Three touchdown passes from Gabriel led to another lopsided win for Oregon. he doesn't leave.
QB Curtis Rourke, Indiana
Rourke hopes to travel to New York in a few weeks as a finalist to beat Ohio State. That's your Heisman moment.
