Clemson ranked No. 2 in latest AP Poll |
A slew of upsets donned Saturday's slate of college football games.
AP ranked teams that lost in the past week included No. 6 Texas, No. 9 Florida, No. 15 Washington, No. 16 Texas A&M, No. 18 Iowa, No. 19 Oregon, No. 20 Wisconsin, No. 21 USF, No. 22 North Carolina State, No. 24 Stanford, and No. 25 App State. However, Clemson was not one of those teams that suffered a defeat as they utterly embarrassed Florida State in a 59-10 beatdown that tied a school record for the worst loss in program history on Saturday afternoon. They were ranked No. 2 by the new AP Poll Sunday, behind Alabama and ahead of Notre Dame, LSU and Michigan. The Tigers stayed at the No. 2 ranking in the latest Coaches Poll as well and received two-first place votes (previously 2). The top five teams ranked were Alabama, Clemson, Notre Dame, LSU, and Michigan. The Crimson Tide received 60 first-place votes in the poll and ahead of Clemson by only 67 points. AP Top 25 1.
