We have some major movement in college football's latest AP Top 25 poll, as two of the nation's top 10 teams and four of the top 15 suffered losses on Saturday.

While the most noteworthy upset was Curt Cignetti's Indiana Hoosiers taking down Dan Lanning's Oregon Ducks (and earning their highest AP ranking in program history), Arch Manning and the Texas Longhorns were also able to get themselves back on the map and into the Top 25 again with a win over the Oklahoma Sooners in the Red River Rivalry.

Elsewhere in the NCAA, Penn State shocked the world by firing James Franklin, Oregon State parted ways with Trent Bay after an 0-7 start, and Georgia's Kirby Smart got away with calling a timeout that he said he didn't in the Bulldogs' win over Auburn.
