#133 Washington State
0-4 in Pac-12 play, 8th in the Pac-12
2026 season recap (through week 8)
Washington State (Pac-12) is ranked 133rd in The Davis Rankings after week 8 of 2026, with a record of 1-7 and a score of 13.1 out of 100. That is down 2 from week 7. That puts it in the Oh Crap tier (ranks 126 and below). Its strongest factor is opponent record at game time (37.9 out of 100). Its weakest is recent results (0.0 out of 100).
The wins so far have come against FCS opponents, which count for little in the formula, so the record is still waiting on a result against a fellow FBS team. The defeat that hurts the score most is the week 6 loss, 17-16 to #135 Utah State on the road.
Washington State has lost its last 5 games in a row. On the road it is 0-4. The average margin is -8.8 points per game, with a biggest win of 41 points. 1 of 8 games was decided by a touchdown or less.
Washington State is not ranked in the AP, Coaches, or CFP polls this week, while the Davis Rankings has it 133rd.
Next up is #113 San Diego State in week 9, on the road. The toughest game left on the schedule by current rank is week 12 against T-57 Texas State. 0 of the 3 games left are against teams currently in the top 25.
