Just skimming it today to review this weekend's Top 25 action and UC's game with USF isn't listed. Nor is UC given a #25 designation on the schedule page as all other ranked teams are. And their weekly power ranking skips UC altogether, instead including Fresno State and UAB.

Sloppy copy editing? Seems a real oversight given UC is ranked in both polls after a brief absence from being in the polls earlier this season. The "worldwide leader" should do better.

They are using the College Football Playoff rankings from last week . (which we weren't in)

So they stopped using the A.P. ranking throughout the website once the CFP was released? I thought the poll ranking was the standard protocol when identifying teams as being ranked on the website and on their telecasts?

Yes. And all their rankings on their graphics is based on the CFP poll now.

Yes.

Maybe we will be ranked in the CFP tonight (but I doubt it, the way they treat the non P5 )

Thanks to all for the clarification. And I guess the ESPN Power Rankings are nothing more than a couple of writers' subjective opinions since they included that powerhouse UAB this week?

For UC, just keep winning. As an old friend used to say, "the quality of our problems has improved dramatically." Bowl eligible, ranked in both polls and still playing for a conference championship following a pair of four win seasons. Let the good times roll.
