Oklahoma soars to No. 5, Louisville rises 11 spots in Top 25 - ESPN
Oklahoma moved up to No. 5 in The Associated Press Top 25 college football poll Sunday, while a late-game gaffe nearly cost 25th-ranked Miami's spot in the rankings and six basketball blue bloods made some history.
No. 1 Georgia, coming off its best game of the season in a rout of Kentucky, regained some of the first-place votes it lost in the AP Top 25 last week, when it needed a late rally to beat Auburn and stay unbeaten.
The Bulldogs got 50 first-place votes after getting 35 last week. No. 2 Michigan received 11 first-place votes as the Wolverines roll along unbeaten and untested.
No. 3 Ohio State and No. 4 Florida State each moved up a spot and received a first-place vote.
Oklahoma jumped seven spots after beating Texas on Saturday to reenter the top 10 for the first time since mid-September of last year, when it started tumbling toward a 6-7 season.
The Longhorns slipped six spots to No. 9.
No. 6 Penn State held its spot, as did No. 7 Washington and No. 8 Oregon in the week before their Pac-12 showdown.
USC dropped a spot to No. 10 after escaping with a triple-overtime victory against Arizona. The Trojans have fallen in the poll for three straight weeks, despite remaining unbeaten.
