The top five in The Associated Press college football poll have been firmly established. Now we will see how long they can stay that way.
No. 1 Alabama, No. 2 Ohio State, No. 3 Clemson, No. 4 Michigan and No. 5 Washington held their places in the Top 25 released Monday after blowout victories this week. The Big Ten placed two more (No. 8 Wisconsin and No. 10 Nebraska) in the top 10 to give the conference four in the first 10 during the regular season for the first time since 1960.
Good times for the Big Ten. Even with that whole Rutgers thing.
No. 6 Texas A&M and Wisconsin get a chance to give the top five a shake this week. But before they do, time to heat check the rankings and see how the voters did this.
No. 1 Alabama (6-0)
