Tomorrow's Top 25 Today projects college football rankings entering Week 6
When we have huge, landscape-shifting weeks in college football, the updated rankings can be some of the most difficult to sort out. Because while the early weeks have some simple moves of winners going up and losers falling, this point in the season brings enough complication that head-to-head results begin to conflict and it creates a puzzle for voters in the AP Top 25 poll.
In fact, according to CBS Sports Research, Week 5 was the first time more than three AP top-five teams lost this early in the season since 2008. Losses for No. 3 Penn State, No. 4 LSU and No. 5 Georgia have opened up the top of the rankings, allowing winners like Oregon and Ole Miss to make major moves at the top of the poll.
Projecting the College Football AP Top 25 for Week 6
In the biggest weekend of the college football season to-date, the games certainly met the billing.
No. 6 Oregon survived a late surge from No. 3 Penn State in Happy Valley and came away with a double-overtime victory. Meanwhile, Alabama traveled on the road to No. 5 Georgia and controlled the pace of the game en route to a three-point victory to take some heat off Kalen DeBoer following the Crimson Tide's Week 1 loss to Florida State.
Speaking of Florida State, the Seminoles lost in double overtime in Charlottesville to the Virginia Cavaliers, who picked up their first signature victory under Tony Elliott.

It had been nearly five years since any program walked into Sanford Stadium and walked out with a win. Alabama, however, had won nine of its last 10 games against Georgia. Something had to give — and it did. Kalen DeBoer's Crimson Tide snapped Georgia’s 33-game home winning streak that spanned two national titles and two SEC championships.
DeBoer, who earlier this season lost to then-unranked Florida State, rode his first-year starting quarterback Ty Simpson to another victory over Georgia. While his record against unranked teams hasn’t been stellar, DeBoer earned a signature win against a top-five opponent for the second straight year. He also remains undefeated against the best team in the SEC outside of Tuscaloosa.
