Big East Football Power Rankings Week 10

Welcome back to the Big East Football Power Rankings. Every week the editors of SB Nation's Big East blogs will cast their vote in an attempt to measure the current state of the Big East. The results are below.

Louisville is back on top of the power rankings and Rutgers' one-week grasp on the top spot in the Big East Power Rankings is over, thanks to a Scarlet Knight loss to Kent State. Louisville had a close call of their own, needing a comeback and overtime to defeat Cincinnati, who held on to the third spot in our rankings.

Syracuse's own comeback -- from 20 down against South Florida -- allowed them to stay in the top half of the poll, but Pittsburgh gained ground on the strength of a blowout win over Temple, and if the Panthers find a way to beat Notre Dame next week you have to imagine they'll shoot up pretty high.

Despite their loss to Pitt the Owls were a unanimous choice for the sixth spot, helped by the continued futility of USF (blowing the aforementioned 20-point lead) and UConn (which avoided another embarrassing loss by taking the week off). See you next week.
