Here is a list of Titan games against nationally ranked teams. Old UPI Coaches' poll rankings are hard to find, so this list may be missing a few games against teams ranked near the bottom of the UPI polls but not ranked in the AP poll. The poll rankings are for the AP poll, with the second number for the Coaches' Poll, when known. The rankings are at game time, not where a team finished the season.
An asterisk (*) means the game was played before the first poll of the season, and the ranking indicates where the opposing team was in the first season poll.
From 1949 through 1960 and from 1969-1990, the AP ranked 20 teams. From 1961 through 1968, just 10 teams were ranked. Since 1991 it has ranked 25 teams.
