Notre Dame fell behind BYU in this week’s ranking. However, the undefeated 9-0 Indiana Hoosiers jumped in front of BYU to No. 8.
The rest of the top seven teams stayed the same, with the biggest shakeup coming at No. 3 with Ohio State after winning at Penn State.
Penn State fell to No. 6 in this week’s poll.
The Cougars are one of five teams that remains undefeated this year.
BYU heads into the final month of the regular season on the heels of a bye week.
Ultimately, the AP Top 25 and Coaches Polls will take a backseat after Tuesday night’s reveal of the first College Football Playoff Top 25 rankings. The College Football Playoff Committee selects the Playoff rankings.
Those playoff rankings decide how the bracket will be constructed in the 12-team Playoff..
BYU is preparing to take on rival Utah this Saturday at Rice-Eccles Stadium. Utah has a 4-4 overall record and is on a four-game losing streak entering the rivalry matchup.
