AP top five remains the same #Clemson

Tyler Davis had 1.5 sacks Saturday in the win at Wake Forest (Clemson Athletics)

Voters in the AP poll this week did not do any shuffling of the top five. Georgia remains at #1 though the Bulldogs received four fewer first place votes, 55, than a week ago. Alabama gained an additional first place vote and remains at #2, while three other voters changed their 1st place vote to Ohio State, and the Buckeyes remain #3. Michigan is 4th and Clemson is 5th.

The Tigers totaled 1311 points this week, coming off their double overtime win at Wake Forest, and added 43 points from last week. Following Clemson in the top ten are Southern Cal, Kentucky, Tennessee, Oklahoma State and NC State which plays at Clemson Saturday night.

The biggest mover of the week in the poll was Texas A&M. Their win over Arkansas Saturday earned the Aggies a promotion of six points to #17. The biggest dropper of the week was Oklahoma which moved from 6th to 18th with the loss to Kansas State. And Florida State, which is 4-0, broke into the ranking this week at #23.
