The Latest: Penn State and Texas Should Fall in the AP Top 25. Which Teams Will Take Their Spots?

Ohio State retains top ranking while Penn State and Texas drop due to recent losses, including Penn State's upset by UCLA and Texas's defeat by Florida.

  • On Saturday, Penn State fell 42-37 to UCLA in a major upset, and Texas lost 29-21 to Florida, moves that could reshape the AP poll.
  • Under the AP system, the Associated Press has ranked college teams since 1936, using a 1-25 point system with around 60 voters.
  • Standout weekend results, Memphis improved to 6-0 after a 45-7 win over Tulsa on Saturday, and Nico Iamaleava accounted for five touchdowns in UCLA's victory.
  • Implications for the poll include South Florida returning after a 54-26 win against Charlotte, while the Bearcats' fourth straight victory strengthens their Top 25 case.
  • Given the weekend's outcomes, including Saturday upsets and signature wins, voters will likely reassess teams, making the next poll volatile for around 60 voters.
