AP college football Week 11 poll reaction: What's next for each Top 25 team - ESPN

In one of the wildest finishes of the season, Indiana managed to keep its undefeated season alive with a late drive against Penn State. Most other teams in the top 10, though, won with little trouble. In the only top-10 vs. top-10 matchup, Texas Tech dominated BYU. And after its quarterback left the game with an injury, Virginia lost to Wake Forest in a low-scoring affair.

What does it all mean for the AP Top 25? Let's break down the rankings.
