College Football Rankings, Week 15: Alabama At No. 2, Wisconsin Breaks Top 10 In AP Poll

The AP Poll was released recently, and the Wisconsin Badgers lead the way for the Big Ten at No. 9 in the nation.

The Associated Press recently released its college football rankings for week 15 of the 2011 season, and Oklahoma State was unable to overtake Alabama for the No. 2 spot in the poll. Alabama beat out Oklahoma State by just 18 points. The Big Ten didn't have a contender for the national championship this year, but the Wisconsin Badgers got back into the top 10 by landing at No. 9 in this week's rankings.

Beyond the Badgers at No. 9, Michigan State comes in at No. 12, Michigan lands at No. 13, Nebraska sits at No. 21 and Penn State ends at No. 23.
