College Football Rankings 2011: Boise State 5th, TCU 25th In Coaches Poll

If you buy something from an SB Nation link, Vox Media may earn a commission. See our ethics statement.

The latest USA Today Coaches poll is out and after Boise State's 35-21 win over Georgia they move up from the seventh spot to the fifth spot, while TCU dropped from No. 15 to No. 25 after losing to Baylor. Air Force comes in the others receiving votes category by garner\ing 10 points. 

What makes no sense in this poll is that after week one where Baylor beat TCU they are still not ranked, that just makes no sense. Also the fact that Auburn moved down only three spots after being handled for 57 minutes against Utah State. Also, dropping Oregon so far seems odd to me, they played LSU who was fourth and while they did lose 40-27 being dropped from No. 3 to No. 14 seems a bit much. 

Now onto the poll.
