It might not be to where many believe Ohio State should be, but the stubbornness of the Associated Press poll voters finally relented and did what everyone else’s eyes showed them over the last few weeks. They moved the Buckeyes up a spot to No. 2, just behind Georgia, which reclaimed the No. 1 spot after Alabama struggled on the road against unranked Texas A&M. The Crimson Tide fell to No. 3.
While there was a little bit of reshuffling, there weren’t too many changes in the top 10 due to a lack of a big upset near the top of the poll in Week 6. Behind the top three are Clemson (4), Michigan (5), Tennessee (6), USC (7), Oklahoma State (8), Ole Miss (9) and Penn State (10).
POLL ALERT: Georgia takes No. 1 back, Alabama drops to No. 3 and Ohio State lands in at No. 2.
