OSU is one of five Big 12 teams in the poll.
I really wonder what the coaches pollsters have been watching

Coaches don’t pay attention to teams not on their schedule. I think many of them have an assistant fill out their ballot. They also have an agenda to have teams they have beaten or who are yet to play to be rated as high as possible so a win makes them look better and a loss can be explained by how highly-ranked the team was that beat them.

Mississippi State loses by 33 points and only drops one spot. No SEC bias there.
I’m sure BYU will drop more if they lost by 2 in quadruple OT to ND.
