We had a big shake up in the rankings as we saw two big upsets in the Big 10 as Ohio State and Penn State fell to Iowa and Michigan State respectively. The remaining five undefeated teams kept their perfect seasons alive and remain in the driver seat in their respective conferences. With a few weeks before the conference championships, can the leaders in each conference survive or will chaos continue to shake things up?
What a surprise! Alabama is still at the top of the rankings

Next Five Up (In Order):
Army (7-2), Troy (7-2), Ohio (7-2), FIU (6-2), Northwestern (6-3)
Notes:
Alabama stays at number one, while Georgia leapfrogs Wisconsin to regain the number two spot it held earlier in the season. Notre Dame's impressive schedule leaves it the best one loss team by a large margin, with Clemson one spot behind. Toledo jumps into the Top 10, but its only loss is against undefeated Miami (FL). The four big teams in the Big Ten East are all in the same area of the rankings ranging from 16-22. Five G5 teams are in the rankings, with undefeated UCF in prime position for a NY6 bowl, with Memphis lurking in the case that UCF falters.
This Week in College Football:
This week's biggest match up is Notre Dame facing Miami. Miami really could use the win to boost their weak schedule, while a win against Miami would cement Notre Dame as the premier one loss team. TCU and Oklahoma face off in a situation where the winner is likely to go to the Big 12 Championship game and fight for a spot in the playoff while the loser is out of the playoff and will have to fight for that second position. Also Michigan State and Ohio State battle to see which one will face Wisconsin in the Big 10 Championship.
