AP top 25: Major changes are taking place as the end of the college football season is fast approaching

We had a lot of movement in this week’s AP Top 25 Poll. Alabama’s blowout win over LSU solidified their position as the number one team in the nation. For LSU, that loss meant dropping five spots to ninth. Michigan’s huge win against Penn State helped them move up one spot to 4th. Unfortunately for Penn State, the loss meant they dropped down 7 spots to 21st. West Virginia defeated Texas 42-41 and moved up five spots. They are now 7th in the poll. Texas remained 15th. The big upset of the night game when an unranked Missouri defeated Florida 38-17. This caused the Gators to drop six spots to claim the 19th spot. Fresno State and Boston college also had significant jumps in the poll.
