2012 College Football Rankings: Oregon jumped by Kansas State in BlogPoll Top 25

The BCS isn't the only place where the Ducks are getting passed over, as SB Nation's panel of voters moved the Ducks down despite a loss.

Jonathan Ferrey

The Oregon Ducks are now No. 3 in SB Nation's BlogPoll Top 25, dropping one spot despite a 70-14 win over the Colorado Buffaloes. The Ducks were up 49-0 before pulling their starters in the second quarter, but that wasn't enough to impress the blog balloters, who thought Kansas State's blowout win over Texas Tech was more impressive.

Oregon did receive two first-place votes, but Kansas State bettered them on the strength of 11 votes for the top spot. Alabama remains in control of the BlogPoll, as they were No. 1 on 60 of the 76 ballots this week. Notre Dame and LSU round out the top five.

Oregon State fell after their loss to the Washington Huskies, dropping to No. 13. Four other Pac-12 teams made their way into the rankings, with Stanford the next highest at No. 15. USC drops to No. 18, while Arizona and UCLA reappear at Nos. 24 and 25.
