The Associated Press and AFCA Coaches Poll released its week seven Top 25's. The AP shuffled its top eight while the Coaches Poll kept its top 10 intact with Alabama, Georgia, Ohio State, Clemson and Michigan in the top five. 

Meanwhile, Georgia takes over the number one ranking in the AP Poll followed by Ohio State, Alabama, Clemson, and Michigan round out the top five. Tennessee moved up two spots to knock USC and Oklahoma State back a spot to seventh and eighth, respectively. 

Five Big 12 Conference members are ranked in both polls this week with Texas breaking into the top 25, ranked No. 22 in the AP Poll and 24th in the Coaches Poll after throttling Oklahoma 49-0. 

Oklahoma State dropped to eighth in the AP poll but held at seventh and the Coaches Poll and remain the highest ranked Big 12 Conference team. 

TCU moved up four spots in the AP poll to 13th and three spots in the Coaches Poll to No. 14 after handing the Kansas Jayhawks their first loss of the season but the Jayhawks held firm at No. 19 in the AP Poll while dropping three spots to No. 20 in the Coaches Poll. 

Kansas State advanced to No. 17 in the AP Poll following a tough 10-9 win over Iowa State on the road, and was rewarded in the Coaches Poll, moving up four spots in the Coaches Poll to 16.
