Nebraska rose two places to No. 3 in the College Gymnastics Association’s Week 7 Power Rankings after coming within a point of Oklahoma during a fierce battle in Lincoln last week.

Air Force moved up one spot to No. 8 after winning the All-Academy competition on Saturday, while Navy dropped to No. 9. Michigan and Penn State also fell one place each.

The rankings are based on the votes of a panel of men’s gymnastics experts surveyed by the CGA, including Gymnastics Now, and will be shared weekly throughout the season on the GymNow site as part of our partnership with the association.

Stanford still holds the No. 1 position. OU is No. 2 but has its sights set on the top position after triumphing over a less than full strength Cardinal team Week 6.

1.  STANFORD (-)
