Amway Coaches Poll: Upset-filled weekend causes massive shake-up in Top 25

Week 7 produced significant chaos in college football, resulting in considerable shuffling in the Amway Coaches Poll.

Top-ranked Alabama retained the No. 1 spot, but even the Crimson Tide got a scare. The result of their game against Missouri wasn’t in doubt, and they still have all but three of the 64 first-place votes. But Heisman favorite Tua Tagovailoa left the game in the third quarter with a knee injury that coach Nick Saban later described as a tweak. For now, at least, all seems well in Tuscaloosa.

Ohio State moves up to No. 2, retaining one first-place nod, after a home win against Minnesota. Clemson, which had the weekend off, climbs back to No. 3 and has the remaining two firsts. Notre Dame avoided the upset bug with a late touchdown to get by Pittsburgh and is now No. 4.
