OU and UW both should've dropped despite winning.

Washington received a few first place votes last week after they beat Oregon. Those are gone this week. So, in a sense, they did drop behind the scenes in the ballots.

The problem dropping highly ranked teams is always “who do you replace them with?”. They are both undefeated, both have wins against top 10 teams, and both are ranked behind four other undefeated teams.

Texas?
OU just beat them, and they really struggled to beat Houston yesterday.

Oregon?
Washington just beat them.

Alabama?
They had a great second half yesterday, but how often have they looked liked a top 5 team this season? Plus, they’d have to jump Texas in the polls.
