Where things stand in the AP top 25 college football rankings heading into Rivalry Week games.
Coming out of a Chaos Saturday that saw eight ranked teams lose, including some notable playoff contenders, it’s time to get an updated look at the AP top 25 college football rankings as we move into Rivalry Week.
Indiana’s perfect record is history after coming out of Columbus battered and bruised in a 38-15 defeat against Ohio State, which, in turn, reinforced its own playoff credibility with that win. Five of those ranked teams lost their games to unranked opponents: Alabama to Oklahoma, Ole Miss to Florida, Texas A&M to Auburn, Colorado to Kansas, and Washington State to Oregon State in the Pac-12 “title game.”Let’s take a look at what teams moved up, who slid down, and who stayed put in the Rivalry Week poll, according to the AP top 25 voters.
AP voters punished the Buffaloes for that loss at unranked Kansas that threw some serious confusion into the Big 12 standings coming into this week.A touchdown loss at Florida likely has the Rebels out of the College Football Playoff picture after the offense stalled at the worst time of the season.Four overtimes later, the Aggies dropped a third game, this time at Auburn, heading into a rivalry date against Texas a decade in the making with a spot in the SEC Championship Game on the line.
