Other big developments in ESPN's rankings are LSU and Colorado, who both jumped at least six spots — Colorado was previously unranked — in the rankings. The biggest loser? TCU (19), Florida (21), and Pitt (22), who all fell out of the rankings entirely. Florida did bring in a solid recruiting class this year thanks to a surge on National Signing Day, but it looks like ESPN wasn't a fan of the rest of their offseason.
