This is what happens when you have to settle for four field goals against Baylor. Oklahoma appears at #20 this week which is one spot behind last week's #19 ranking marking the second week in a row that the Sooners have dropped in the AP Poll. If I actually thought that they cared where they were ranked I would say that this would be some additional motivation going into next week's game against Texas but the Longhorns are going to be looking for some redemption themselves after dropping a spot themselves this week. In fact, every ranked Big 12 School other than Nebraska dropped this week. The Huskers moved up this week from #21 to #15.
