The media had all kinds of thoughts about Michigan football after Week 1 and the near-loss to Western Michigan. So much so that many with a vote in the AP Top 25 left the Wolverines out altogether after starting the season ranked No. 16. Thus, the maize and blue were unranked this week. But after beating No. 11 Oklahoma in Week 2, the voters gave the Wolverines a bit of a reprieve.

In the latest AP Top 25, Michigan returned to the rankings, rising nine spots from unranked to No. 19. Oklahoma fell from 11th to 24th, so it remains a ranked win for the maize and blue. The Wolverines are now ahead of Oregon, which fell from sixth to 21st. Ohio State fell from No. 1 overall to sixth. And future opponents Iowa, Penn State, and Indiana are ranked 18th, 14th, and fourth, respectively.
