I don't know what else it could be.  I didn't change the oil, just the filter.

The oil was still clean, so I just replaced the filter.  I instantly went
from low oil pressure to the normal readings I was getting before the I put
the Purolator filter in.

BTW, this was one of the high performance blue filters.
