Today’s live coverage has ended, but there’s still plenty to catch up on. Read what you missed below, and come back for the next AP Top 25 poll on Sept. 27.
It’s a good day for Ole Miss in the AP Top 25 rankings. The Rebels — who held off Lane Kiffin and LSU 32-24 on Saturday night — jumped over the Tigers and three other teams to land at No. 4.
Making their season debut in the poll are No. 21 Florida, which is 3-0 for the first time since 2019, and No. 24 Mississippi State. That leaves the Southeastern Conference with 10 ranked teams this week.
Texas A&M took the biggest fall, going from No. 9 to No. 23 after its 31-21 home loss to unranked Kentucky. Louisville was the biggest gainer, rising seven spots to No. 16 after its 41-31 victory over SMU.
Texas was No. 1 for the second straight week, followed by Georgia, Notre Dame, Ole Miss and Indiana. Miami, Ohio State, Alabama, BYU and LSU completed the top 10. That’s a three-spot slip for the Tigers.
Games to watch next weekend:
- SEC: No. 1 Texas travels to No. 14 Tennessee in a marquee SEC showdown at Neyland Stadium. No. 4 Ole Miss faces newly ranked No. 21 Florida, No. 23 Texas A&M takes on No. 10 LSU and No. 19 Missouri visits a No. 24 Mississippi State.
- Big Ten: No. 17 Iowa and No. 18 Michigan go head-to-head in a matchup with major Big Ten implications. And No. 20 Oregon visits No. 12 USC, looking to rebound from its Week 2 loss to Oklahoma State
