For the second week in a row there is a new No. 1 as Cal retakes the top spot from Ohio State. Cal’s five best wins weren’t as good as Ohio State’s but the difference this week was Ohio State having the one loss to Cal while is undefeated.

Georgia moves up from No. 7 to No. 3 after beating both Ole Miss and Mississippi State on the roast last weekend. North Carolina drops one spot from No. 3 to No. 4 while Vanderbilt moves up 3 spots from No. 8 to No. 5 after defeating Kentucky last weekend.

This week’s rankings used each team’s five best wins as will next week’s rankings.

The following teams made double-digit increases versus the last rankings:
#9 Miami FL (+12)
#11 Auburn (+18)
#22 Wake Forest (+22)
#26 Arizona State (+10)
#29 Virginia Tech (+10)
#31 NC State (+24)
#32 Texas (+41)
#35 Denver (+23)
#43 USC (+78) – was ranked outside the top 125 last week
#54 Boston College (+22)
#56 Winthrop (+10)

The following teams made double-digit decreases versus the last rankings (still ranked):
#42 Clemson (-23)
#53 Georgia State (-10)
#55 Rice (-15)
#62 Purdue (-10)
#69 Washington State (-22)
#71 Tennessee (-17)

These 7 teams entered the rankings after being unranked and the reason why they moved up:
#43 USC – beat Washington and Washington State
#54 Boston College – beat then #19 Clemson
#65 Kansas State – beat then #50 SMU
#67 Cal State Fullerton – beat then #56 Hawaii
#70 Princeton – beat then #53 Georgia State
#73 Troy – previous win over Florida International was elevated when FIU jumped from 62 to 48
#75 Pitt – previous win over West Virginia was elevated when WVU entered the rankings last week

These 7 teams dropped out of the rankings with last week’s rankings in ( ):
SMU (50) – lost to Wichita State, Kansas, and Kansas State last week
Hawaii (56) – lost to Cal State Fullerton and Fresno State
Michigan State (67) – no losses just lost a few points here and there
North Texas (68) – lost to TCU
Nebraska (69) – lost to Purdue
Oklahoma (72) – previous losses hurt more when those teams dropped last week
West Virginia (75) – lost to Maryland
