After week 8 it’s still Ohio State on top of the AP rankings, joined by Baylor, Clemson, LSU and TCU in the top 5. Losses for Utah and Florida State dropped both of them out of the top 10, opening up spots for Iowa and Notre Dame despite the both of them not playing. California and Texas A&M losing again resulted in them being dropped from the rankings, while UCLA and Mississippi State rejoin us.

Just like last week, the week 6 top 25 college football rankings show voters are losing their confidence in Ohio State. Still number one, but with less first place votes, being spread out among Baylor, TCU, Utah and even Clemson, who complete the top 5. Florida are in the top 10 following another impressive win and Michigan are getting very close, while Oklahoma took a big tumble following their loss to Texas, Northwestern are on their way out while Georgia and USC are out of the rankings following their second loss of the season.

The top 25 is once again headed by Ohio State following week 5 but they’re losing first place votes after an unimpressive win over lowly Indiana. TCU and Baylor are picking up steam thanks to big Big 12 wins, Utah join the top 5 without even playing, Clemson enter the top 10 after beating Notre Dame, who suffer a massive drop, just like Ole Miss and UCLA. Toledo and Iowa make their rankings debut, while Wisconsin, Mississippi State and West Virginia get dropped.

The top 3 remains unchanged following week 2 as Ohio State, Alabama and TCU cruise against weak teams. Michigan State make a small but meaningful jump after beating Oregon, who along with Auburn took the big plummets of the week, as the Tigers struggling against an FCS team costs them 12 spots. BYU, Oklahoma State and Northwestern make their first appearances in the top 25 this season, filling in for three SEC teams that dropped out: Tennessee, Arkansas and Mississippi State.
