2013 College Football Season – Week 7 Rankings

2013 College Football Season – Week 7 Rankings

A little bit of shake up in the top 10, although the usual suspects of Alabama, Oregon and Clemson remain in the lead of the top 25, but LSU and Texas A&M make big moves forward, rising thanks to the fall of Georgia and Stanford, losing for the first time in the 2013 season.

The Big Ten saw two teams drop out of the rankings, as Michigan lost for the first time this season, while Northwestern were beaten by Wisconsin quite badly. This means the Badgers and Auburn are the two new teams in the rankings this week.
