I think early rankings need to have rankings amnesia. They're not moving up or down. It's just a fresh list based off of new info. Rankings are based on very little information and we now have 100% more data for most of these teams.

Arkansas, for example, had a perfect game against an extremely weak opponent. They weren't unranked because they were bad. I think their game with OKSt just validated that Arkansas is pretty good (but now they have a loss). Also, two of the teams they jumped (Michigan and Notre Dame) lost games. So I think jumping at least 2 was warranted.
