Where Mizzou Football Ranks in Polls After Week 15

The Missouri Tigers dropped one spot in the final AP Poll before the first College Football Playoff with the 12-team format.

With the new rankings, Missouri faced off against two teams in the rankings — No. 11 Alabama and No. 14 South Carolina. Missouri lost on the road to both of the playoff hopefuls, falling 34-0 to Alabama and 34-30 against South Carolina.

Missouri has travelled all throughout the AP this season. After spending two weeks in the top 10 early in the season, a lost to Texas A&M in Week 6 caused a 12-spot drop for the Tigers, tying the largest drop in a single week in program history.
