College football, AP and Coaches Poll
Digest more
The 2025 college football season still features six undefeated teams heading into the homestretch of another contentious campaign, and after a busy weekend of big-time victories for the nation’s elite teams there aren’t many changes at the top of this week’s AP Top 25 Poll.
No. 3 Texas A&M looks to be the real deal after destroying No. 20 LSU, 49-25, in Death Valley. The Tigers have lost three out of the past four games after starting the season 4-0. Coach Brian Kelly is 5-11 vs. AP ranked teams, and his team is no longer in the top 25.
Predicting the AP Top 25 Poll after the No. 10 Vanderbilt Commodores beat the No. 15 Missouri Tigers and the No. 8 Ole Miss Rebels beat the No. 13 Oklahoma Sooners. Will the USC Trojans sneak back into the top-25?

AP Top 25 Report- Post Week 9
Michigan (6-2) won its rivalry game against Michigan State 31-20 in East Lansing and moved up four spots. UM’s November schedule includes Purdue, Northwestern, and Maryland, before the Wolverines will look to make it five straight against archrivals Ohio State in Ann Arbor to end the season.
Week 9 of college football has largely unfolded as expected, even with several close calls. No. 7 Georgia Tech rolled past Syracuse 41-16, No. 4 Alabama edged South Carolina 29-22, No. 10 Vanderbilt beat Missouri 17-10 and No. 2 Indiana cruised to a 56-6 rout of UCLA.
Another exciting week of the college football season is in the books, and the top programs are continuing to separate themselves from the rest of the country. N
Vanderbilt's 17-10 win over Missouri on Saturday was its best win yet, but it wasn't a wildly successful performance. The Commodores had nine fewer first downs, were outpossessed by nearly 13 minutes and the Tigers outgained them by over 100 yards.
