College Football Polls Updated Ap Top 25 Coaches Poll Rankings For Week 14

Incredibly, three top-10 teams, each in contention for the College Football Playoff, fell during Rivalry Week, including two to unranked opponents. No. 3 Michigan dismantled No. 2 Ohio State 45-23; Texas A&M upset No. 6 LSU 38-23, and South Carolina took down No. 8 Clemson 31-30. That sets up a relatively clear path for several teams to make the Playoff during conference championship week — and also opens the door for yet more chaos in the last week of play before the final CFP rankings are unveiled....

College Football Rankings What Tennessee S Loss To South Carolina Means For Lsu Usc And More

The Volunteers had no answer for Spencer Rattler, whose six passing touchdowns nearly doubled his previous season total of eight heading into the game. He completed 30 of 37 passes for 438 yards in the game of his life, and Tennessee’s offense simply could not keep up. Speaking of which, the Volunteers lost more than the game Saturday. Quarterback Hendon Hooker, the driving force behind Josh Heupel’s high-octane offense, left the game late in the fourth quarter with a non-contact injury, apparently to his knee....

College Football Updated Polls Ap Top 25 Coaches Poll Rankings After Week 14

The first of those was 7-1 Marshall, which lost a 20-0 stunner to previously 1-2 Rice on Saturday. But it was No. 9 BYU’s loss to 14th-ranked Coastal Carolina that has the greater impact on the College Football Playoff race. The Cougars headed to Conway, S.C., looking for a resume-boosting win, but got more than they bargained for from Jamey Chadwell’s Chanticleers. It was a chippy game after Coastal Carolina took a cheap shot on BYU’s Zach Wilson at the end of the first half, but that doesn’t take away from the Chanticleers’ program-defining win, stamped with a last-second stop to preserve the 22-17 victory....

Colleges Are Dropping Act Sat Requirements A Look At Schools That Don T Use Test Scores

In fact, as many as one in four have stopped using the standardized tests for admissions, Michael Nietzel, president emeritus of Missouri State University, told PBS News Hour. By doing that, they are looking to bring in more students of color, low-income students and other underrepresented populations that might not otherwise be admitted to a school they could succeed in. For example, a June analysis of the 200 most selective schools that follow this practice, conducted by the Center on Education and the Workforce, showed that if the schools selected students based on the SAT alone, more than half of the new admittees would not have been accepted....

Color Coordinated Truths

In fact, blacks in America have never had any choice but to face such “truths.” Theories of blacks’ innate intellectual inadequacy provided much of the rationale for slavery and for Jim Crow, They also accomplished something equally pernicious, and continue to do so today: they caused many blacks (if only subconsciously) to doubt their own abilities-and to conform to the stereotype, thereby confirming it. Long before Richard Herrnstein and Charles Murray came along, race and IQ was a touchy topic....
