Washington, FSU flip-flop at Nos. 4-5 by Sophia Chen November 19, 2023 written by Sophia Chen November 19, 2023 5 comments Bookmark 28 In the latest update from The Big Big News college football rankings, Ohio State has overtaken Michigan, climbing to the second position, setting the stage for an upcoming high-stakes encounter with their Big Ten rival. Meanwhile, Washington and Florida State have exchanged positions, with Washington ascending to fourth and Florida State dropping to fifth. Georgia continues to lead the poll at the top spot, gaining a season-high 61 first-place votes. The team has maintained its number one position for an impressive 23 consecutive weeks, nearing the record set by Southern California between 2003 and 2005. This past Saturday, all top five undefeated teams won their games, leading to a reshuffling in the rankings. Michigan, previously second since the preseason, fell to third following a narrow victory over Maryland, a game they played without their head coach Jim Harbaugh who is currently suspended. Ohio State, now second, secured a first-place vote after a convincing victory over Minnesota. Washington, after a close win against Oregon State, which fell to 15th place, achieved its highest ranking since 2016. Conversely, Florida State slipped to fifth despite a win against North Alabama, marred by the injury of quarterback Jordan Travis. The rankings also saw Oregon, Texas, Alabama, and Louisville maintaining their respective sixth to ninth positions, while Missouri rose to tenth. In terms of matchups, Michigan and Ohio State are set for their 13th top-five rivalry game, a record in college football, with Ohio State leading in past encounters. Other notable rivalries include Oklahoma-Texas and Nebraska-Oklahoma. In changes to the AP Top 25, Utah dropped out of the rankings for the first time this season, following a loss to Arizona. This ended Utah’s 33-week streak in the poll. North Carolina also fell out of the rankings after losing to Clemson. Meanwhile, Toledo made its first appearance in the poll this season, and Iowa re-entered at 20th after securing the Big West championship. The entry of Toledo marks a high for non-Power Five conferences in the Top 25, joining teams like Tulane, Liberty, and James Madison. In the upcoming ranked matchups, the focus is on the game between Ohio State and Michigan, a significant contest in college football history. Additionally, a notable game between Oregon State and Oregon is also scheduled. For more details and updates on the AP Top 25 poll, follow Ralph D.
