Week 8 AP Poll Top 25 Released

Florida State 5-2 14. It's the fifth consecutive week this season the Utes have been ranked. Only two one-loss teams (Louisville, Houston), and two two-loss teams (Wisconsin, Florida State), find themselves above the Gators in one, or both, of the polls. Tennessee dropped nine spots from the No. 9 position in the poll, while the Hogs jumped up to 17 from No. 22. The differences are the coaches have Clemson #3 and MI #4, while the AP poll has the teams reversed. Tennessee tumbled all the way down to No. 19 after the loss, an eight-spot fall after being No. 11 going into the weekend. Alabama retained their spot at the top of the polls after a 49-10 thrashing of Tennessee while A&M clung to the No. 6 spot after an idle week of action.

They still have two current Top-25 opponents left on the schedule in No. 4 Clemson and No. 15 Florida.

Despite an unimpressive win against Wake Forest on Saturday, Florida State managed to move up in both the AP Poll and the Amway Coaches Poll.

The Mids received 163 voting polls in the AP poll, 25 points behind No. 23 Ole Miss (3-3) and 40 points ahead of No. 25 LSU (4-2). Two SEC teams, conversely, took a tumble, as Tennessee and Ole Miss suffered losses to Alabama and Arkansas, respectively.
