Georgia remains at No. 1, but Ohio State moves up from No. 4 to No. 2 after crushing Michigan State 56-7.

Alabama and Cincinnati were 4 spots apart a few weeks ago, which led me to think 2-loss Bama might stay ahead of them.
They're now just 1 spot apart. If Cincy wins out, beating Top 25 Houston to win its conference, and Bama loses, I no longer see how Bama would stay above them.

Gary Barta: "Alabama's still a great team, have a wonderful win against Ole Miss. The last few weeks, just not showing as much domination on defense."
