NCR D1 Rankings Fall 2026 Week 9
It was a very busy NCR D1 weekend and we saw, for the most part, teams logging results that the rankings expected.
Our biggest conundrum is what to do about Notre Dame and Brown. With Brown winning that game 90-0 the Fighting Irish should probably be dropped out of the rankings. They were, however, competitive with UCLA and did beat Michigan and Michigan State.
D1A Rankings for 2026-27 Week 10
Navy's close win over Saint Mary's could conceivably mean Navy drops out of #1, but no, you'd also expect that #1 vs #4 would be close.
Instead, we move the Gaels up a spot to #3.
Ohio State's win over Indiana on the 16th moves the Buckeyes up, and GCU also nudges up a spot.
Men D2 College Rankings Fall 2026 Week 7
Wow, what a weekend in D2.
We had seven games between ranked teams, including some conference playoffs.
Of those, one was a tie even though the teams weren't that close in the rankings. One result was a fairly lopsided result between teams ranked close. The result were won by the higher-ranked team. We also had another result which was a forfeit win.

Navy Edges Saint Mary's in Barnburner
Navy needed a late penalty goal to go it but the Midshipmen are still undefeated after beating Saint Mary's for the first time in the program's history.
In a high-intensity, hard-hitting match with a few errors and plenty of drama, the Gaels and the Midshipmen traded the lead six times with Navy finishing 30-28 victors.
