College Football Rankings 2012: Rutgers rises to No. 20

The Rutgers Scarlet Knights' undefeated status has them rising in the BlogPoll as well, as they moved up three spots to No. 20 in Week 7.

The 5-0 squad was ranked as high as No. 10 by some voters, but the majority put the Scarlet Knights around the 20th spot, with 17 of 87 ballots putting them at No. 20 and an additional 15 putting them at No. 21. That's relatively consistent with the AP Poll, that put Rutgers at No. 20, and the Coaches Poll, which puts them at No. 19.

The BlogPoll agrees with both conventional polls about the order of the Big East conference, ranking all three of the league's undefeated teams: the Louisville Cardinals are No. 18, with the Cincinnati Bearcats a spot behind Rutgers at No. 21.

Here's a look at the full poll:
