Because of the seven-turnover meltdown and 21-7 Cotton Bowl loss to Ole Miss, Oklahoma State is not ranked in the final Associated Press college football poll.
The Cowboys had been a presence in 27 consecutive polls -- the second-longest streak in school history. From September 1984 until December 1985, OSU was ranked in 29 consecutive AP polls.
During the most recent streak, OSU was ranked as high as No. 5 (following the 2009 season-opening victory over Georgia). Entering the 2008 game at Texas, OSU was 7-0 and ranked No. 7.
