Ohio State Drops To No. 6 In Associated Press Top 25 Poll Following Win Against Penn State
Unlike the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll, where it remained at No. 5, Ohio State fell to No. 6 in the Associated Press Top 25 Poll released on Sunday afternoon following its 33-24 win over Penn State.
The Buckeyes were jumped by Michigan State by virtue of its win over rival Michigan, which was the sixth-ranked team in the country heading into Saturday. The Wolverines fell to No. 9 as a result of the loss.
The top four remain steady from last week, with Georgia leading the way, followed by Cincinnati, Alabama and Oklahoma. Wake Forest, meanwhile, finds its way into the top 10 for the first time in school history.
Other Big Ten teams ranked in this week’s poll include Iowa at No. 19 and Penn State and No. 22. The Hawkeyes notably lost their second straight game on the road at unranked Wisconsin.
