[vive123654]

After an offensive assault against Tennessee, gaining 551 yards and scoring 51 points, the Denver Broncos have reclaimed top spot in the TSN.ca NFL Power Rankings, overtaking the Seattle Seahawks, who lost a punshing physical game at San Francisco. Coincidentally, the Seahawks and Niners are now second and third in the rankings. The Chicago Bears obliterated the Dallas Cowboys Monday night and jumped from 18 to 12, just as the Cowboys fell from 12 to 17. A wild win against Minnesota helped the Baltimore Ravens keep moving forward and they are up from 19 to 16, A couple of teams that have been mired at the bottom for most of the season, the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Jacksonville Jaguars, have both been making progress late in the year, and both are up five spots, to 26 and 27, respectively. Losing at home to Miami cost the Pittsburgh Steelers, who fell from 14 to 18, and getting stomped by the New York Jets (along with some injuries on offence) resulted in the Oakland Raiders dropping from 25 to 31.

MARIE, Ont.The most under-rated team in the FBS resides in the great state of Michigan. To the surprise of many, it isnt the Wolverines but their in-state rivals the Michigan State Spartans. Head Coach Mark Dantonio leads a capable offence, and one of the best defences the Big 10 has ever seen. Outside of a loss to Notre Dame back in September, the Spartans have been perfect, working their way up the BCS rankings where they currently sit 16th. With Nebraska, Northwestern, Minnesota and potentially Ohio State in the Big 10 Championship game still on the schedule, Michigan State has a chance to crack the Top 10 and wind up in the Rose Bowl. For a team you have heard very little about, the upside for the Spartans is incredibly high. And its well deserved. In their nine games, eight wins and one loss, the Spartans have given up more than 17 points just once. In their last three games theyve combined to give up just nine points total. They have allowed 11.6 points per game which is third-best in the FBS. Now paired with their daunting defence is an offence that has provided capable of keeping pace. Sophomore Connor Cook has taken over as the starting quarterback and has tossed 13 touchdowns and only three interceptions. Jeremy Langford has done a respectable job replacing Leveon Bell with 11 total touchdowns out of the backfield. The fact of the matter is the Spartans have been dismissed because of all the talk that the Big 10 is "down" and the conference is well behind the likes of the SEC, Pac-12, ACC and Big 12. The truth is while the depth in the conference is down; the top end could compete with all of those other conferences. The three-headed monster of Ohio State, Michigan State and Wisconsin is capable of hanging with the other powers. Currently Michigan State sits behind Northern Illinois, Fresno State, and two-loss teams in UCLA and South Carolina in the BCS standings. On a neutral field the Spartans would win gamess against all four of those teams - a few of them handily.dddddddddddd Depending on how they perform the rest of the season, it may take until the bowl season for Michigan State to prove that their ranking has been a sham all along, and the Spartans should have been considered elite long ago. Teams dont need to score 60 points to be exciting or successful, and the Spartans are the number one team at proving that point. They have work left to be done, starting with the Cornhuskers this weekend, but keep an eye out for Michigan State as they take a run at the Big 10 Title and a berth in a BCS bowl game. Other notes from around the NCAA: -Michigan lost their first game at home under Brady Hoke, falling to Nebraska.
