Some people are not happy about it.
They took to social media to express their disgust with the drop for Arizona after the Wildcats' 29-28 win over TCU in college football Week 10.
One point that especially didn't sit well with some college football fans? South Carolina jumped to No. 17 in the ranking after a 17-9 win over Texas A&M.
The Gamecocks, of the SEC, are 6-3, while the Wildcats, of the Big 12, are 7-2.

Arizona at 23 at 7-2 with two losses to teams in the top 15 is disrespectful. Especially when Iowa is 15 at 7-2 with losses to Minnesota and Ohio st…

So Missouri has 0 ranked wins and 3 losses (1 to an unranked team), yet they're above Arizona with 0 ranked wins and 2 losses (both to teams ranked in the top 12). Someone explain the logic https://t.co/9VVoeIkJgK

Is Arizona ranked too low in College Football Playoff rankings?
Six teams with three losses are above Brent Brennan's team, with the Big Ten's Oregon (6-3) at No. 16 and Ohio State (6-3) at No. 20, and the SEC's South Carolina (6-3) at No. 17, Ole Miss (6-3) at No. 19, LSU (6-3) at No. 21 and Missouri (6-3) at No. 22.
Arizona's only losses were to BYU (currently No. 10) on the road and Texas Tech (currently No. 12) on the road, but the Wildcats do lack a big victory over a ranked opponent.
A win over No. 2 Utah on Nov. 14 at Casino Del Stadium in Tucson, Arizona, would change that, likely boosting Arizona in the rankings.
You can't get a much bigger win than that.
