NCAA Football Rankings 2016: Top Reaction to Week 4 College Polls and Standings

After seven teams within the Associated Press Top 25 lost during Week 3, a noticeable shake-up occurred when the Week 4 standings were released on Sunday. 

Here is the newest AP poll along with where the teams were ranked last week:

As always with new rankings each week, there is a faction of college football fans who are either angry, shocked or upset at the state of the college football landscape, and there was no shortage of hot takes on the internet following the poll's release. 

Among the largest movers, Louisville hopped from No. 10 to No. 3 after it destroyed former No. 2 Florida State 63-20. 

The most impressive display of the week allowed Louisville to move up to a ranking that it hasn't been in since 2006, per Kennedy Hardman of WTVQ ABC. 

Chris B. Brown of Smart Football was quick to point out that the Cardinals offense is better than new No. 2 Ohio State's:

Toward the bottom of the rankings, a pair of 1-2 teams still remain in the Top 25 in Ole Miss and Oklahoma, which is not a common sight, per Ralph D. Russo of the AP:

For Joe Fortenbaugh of 95.7 The Game, one program was given a pass just because of its name:

This was after the Sooners were steamrolled by Ohio State 45-24 on Saturday night at home. 

Ole Miss, which entered Week 3 at No. 19, squandered another 20-plus-point lead against No. 1 Alabama and lost 48-43.

Major League Gaming's Adam Apicella had trouble wrapping his head around the fact that the Rebels were still ranked:

"

Ole Miss is 1-2 and ranked #21

Makes sense...

So did FoxSports.com's Dieter Kurtenbach: "They're talented, but you don't get to blow two 21-point leads this season and keep your ranking. Sorry. See you again in Week 7."

Alabama ensured that it wouldn't lose to Ole Miss for a third straight time. But while the Crimson Tide remain the toast of college football, ESPN.com's Mark Schlabach doesn't think that they are in the premier conference anymore.

"Alabama doesn't seem ready to loosen its grip on No. 1, but it might be hard to argue that the SEC is still the best league," Schlabach wrote. "In fact, that distinction might belong to—gasp!—the Big Ten."

Two other Big Ten members join Ohio State in the Top 10: Michigan, which remained at No. 4, and Michigan State, which made the jump to No. 8 after beating Notre Dame. 

Another Big Ten member completely dropped out of the rankings as No. 13 Iowa lost to FCS powerhouse North Dakota State on a last-second field goal. While the Hawkeyes weren't in the conversation for a Top 25 spot, the FCS school was, per Fox Sports' Bruce Feldman:

The AP Top 25 clarified just how close the Bison were to getting a ranking, which would have made them the first FCS team to ever do so:

Regardless, there was still plenty of changes among the rankings, which led ESPN analyst and former Heisman Trophy winner Desmond Howard to take a shot at the preseason rankings:

The bad news for Howard is that the polls are nowhere near done with change this season as plenty more upsets and wild finishes will dominate headlines for the next four months.
