Oklahoma State's 35-31 win over the Iowa State Cyclones was certainly impressive, if you take away the first quarter. Apparently, the coaches poll doesn't care how it looks, because it's better than the College Football Playoff Committee, even if just a little bit.
The coaches poll now has Oklahoma State as the highest ranked Big 12 team with Oklahoma close behind at No. 7. This poll will be updated with the AP Poll when it is released.
