The top 10 teams didn't show any movement this week, but the bottom of the rankings changed with a few unexpected wins from teams higher in the poll. So far this season, no unranked team has upset a top 10 team. In fact, most of the losses in the top 10 have come from schools beating other top 10 teams.
The Ohio State Buckeyes become the first team in the top 25 poll to become bowl eligible. Ole Miss drops out of the top 25 after their second straight loss. Maryland drops out as well after getting blasted by Florida State 63-0.
New entrants Baylor and the Missouri Tigers enter the top 25 due to how impressive they have looked—not necessarily because of the quality of their wins.
