Top 25 NCAA Football Teams
1 Southern California
jumps five spaces after rolling at California, 30-3, to become the best college football team. Up next: @Notre Dame in two weeks.
2 Alabama
rises two spaces after winning at Kentucky, 38-20, to become the best team in the highly-contested SEC. Up next: @Mississippi.
3 Florida
slides back two spaces during their bye week. The Tennessee and Kentucky wins had depreciated this week. The gators prepare for a massive SEC
match-up. Up next: @LSU.
4 LSU

weeks.
7 Virginia Tech
falls four spaces after escaping at Duke, 34-26. Up next: Boston College.
8 Ohio State
jumps five spaces after winning at Indiana, 33-14. Will an undefeated Wisconsin pose a threat? Up next: Wisconsin.
9 Iowa
falls four spaces after barely getting past Arkansas State, 24-21. The hawkeyes have been extremely inconsistent but have always managed to pull
out wins. Up next: Michigan.
10 Texas
slips a space during their bye week. The longhorns will need bigger wins to move up the list. Up next: Colorado.
11 Cincinnati
remains at eleven after winning at Miami (the fake one in Ohio), 37-13. A big game looms in the future. Up next: @South Florida in two weeks.
12 Auburn
returns to the list after winning at Tennessee, 26-22. Gene Chizik was a good choice (unlike milk). Up next: @Arkansas.
13 Miami-Florida
rises two spaces after knocking off Oklahoma, 21-20. The hurricanes' crazy schedule finally cools down; they can breathe again. Up next:
Florida A&M.
14 TCU
slips two spaces after beating cupcake SMU, 39-14. (Fun fact: crazy religious universities love acronyms.) And TCU's Clemson win has lost its
shine. Up next: @Air Force.
15 South Florida
moves up three spaces after winning at Syracuse, 34-20. Who will win the Big East? We'll find out soon. Up next: Cincinnati in two weeks.
16 Oklahoma
falls six spaces after losing at Miami-FL, 20-21. The sooners move into their Big 12 schedule after an uncertain start. Up next: Baylor.
17 Georgia Tech

18 Penn State
jumps five spaces after winning at Illinois, 35-17. Up next: Eastern Illinois. Why?
19 California
falls five spaces after a second blow-out loss. This time to USC, 3-30. Feel my shame. Up next: @UCLA in two weeks.
20 BYU
slides down a space after beating Utah State, 35-17. The win over Oklahoma has lost some of its luster. Up next: @UNLV.
21 Georgia
falls five spaces after losing to LSU, 13-20. Up next: @Tennessee.
22 Arizona
slips a space during their bye week. Up next: @Washington.
23 Wisconsin
returns to the list after winning at Minnesota, 31-28. The badgers are undefeated, but can they pull the big upset? Up next: @Ohio State.
24 Missouri
slips two spaces during their bye week. The tigers prepare for a critical Big 12 North game. Up next: Nebraska Thursday night. This game could decide who loses
to Texas in the Big 12 Championship!
25 Nebraska
remains at twenty-five during their bye week. Can the huskers handle a Thursday night game on enemy turf? Up next: @Missouri Thursday night.
