BIG12 rankings this year vs 2023. P2 And Name bias in place.
2023 Nov 5 AP poll BIG12 teams:

Texas (8-1) #7
OkieSt (7-2) #15
OU (7-2) #17
KU (7-2) #19

Today:
BYU (8-0) #9
ISU (7-1) #17
CU (6-2) #21
KSU (7-2) #22

It’s a little lower due to bias, not under performance.

It is clear there is a name brand and SEC/B1G bias this year that will likely continue.

Last year at this time the 6 undefeated power conference teams were ranked 1-6.

All the 1-loss teams followed.

This year BYU and Indiana are behind all 5 one-loss P2 teams.

ACC and BIG12 one-loss teams are behind SEC/BIG 2-loss teams. iSU is behind every P2 2-loss team.

Welcome to the P2 era. Not only do the P2 get priority ranking with equal record, they get a mulligan too.
