Two weeks after the SEC had a record 10 teams in the AP top 25, there's a conference with the Nos. 1 and 2 ranked teams. No, it's not the SEC.
It's the Big Ten.
Ohio State remained at No. 1 following its 20-13 win over Northern Illinois on Saturday and Michigan State moved up to No. 2 after Alabama's loss to Ole Miss on Saturday night. The Spartans beat Air Force and also leapfrogged TCU, who stayed at No. 3.
Ole Miss tied the Horned Frogs at No. 3, up 12 spots from No. 15 a week ago. Baylor stayed at No. 5 and Notre Dame moved up two spots to No. 6. Ole Miss was the poll's biggest mover.
Alabama fell to No. 12, the fourth of six SEC teams in the top 25 after Week 3.
Auburn, which lost to LSU, fell out of the top 25. USC, which fell to Stanford, dropped from No. 6 to 19. Stanford is ranked at No. 21.
