Alabama Remains #4 in the AP Top 25, Oregon Jumps to #3
Despite a dramatic overtime road win over LSU, Alabama failed to move up in the latest AP Top 25. Oregon, which beat #20 Utah on Saturday, leapfrogged the Crimson Tide to take over the 3rd spot in the rankings.
A total of four top-10 teams lost on a day that was filled with key matchups. The College Football Playoff picture continues to become clearer with each passing week. The next set of rankings from the selection committee will be released on Tuesday.
