Ohio State moving on up in the AP Top 25 Poll
Ohio State was on a bye this week, but that didn’t keep the Buckeyes from moving up in the latest AP Top 25 Poll. After seeing No. 2 Iowa go down, voters moved OSU up to No. 5 in the country.
Cincinnati moved up to the No. 2 spot, the highest-ranking ever for the Bearcat football team. Oklahoma and Alabama also each moved up one spot to No. 3 and 4, just ahead of the Buckeyes.
POLL ALERT: Cincinnati up to No. 2, Purdue snaps AP Top 25 poll drought after beating Iowa; Texas-San Antonio ranked for 1st time.
