West Virginia remains the only Big East Conference team in either the AP Top 25 or the top 25 of the USA Today/Coaches Poll this week. In rankings released Sunday, the Mountaineers (6-2) are 24th in the AP Top 25 and 21st in the USA Today poll.
Rutgers and Syracuse received some votes a week ago, though neither was able to crack the Top 25. Neither the Scarlet Knights nor the Orange got any votes this week. Rutgers lost to WVU, 41-31, and Syracuse was soundly beaten by Louisville, 27-10.
LSU remained at the top of both polls, with Alabama No. 2.
