After another wild weekend of college football, the AP Top 25 for this week has seen perennial powerhouses like Florida State fall out of the rankings, while newcomers such as Georgia and TCU have climbed into the top 10.
Due to Hurricane Irma, Florida State played only their second game of the year this weekend, losing 27-21 to NC State to drop to 0-2 for the first time since 1989. The Seminoles fell out of the top 25 for the first time since 2011.
Following a 37-35 loss at Arizona State, Oregon dropped the rankings.
The Alabama Crimson tide, who has been ranked for 168 consecutive weeks, remains at the top following their 59-0 domination of Vanderbilt. The top 5 remained unchanged this week, as Clemson, Oklahoma, Penn State, and USC all notched wins.
