Ohio State moved to 6-0 behind Curtis Samuel and J.T. Barrett in defeating Wisconsin under the lights of Camp Randall Stadium.

Alabama moved to 7-0 after tombstoning Tennessee in Knoxville

So unsurprisingly, the top two teams held steady in the latest AP Top 25 released Sunday afternoon. (The same held true in the Coaches Poll released hours earlier.)

Michigan, somewhat surprisingly considering it didn't play yesterday, hopped Clemson after the Tigers escaped North Carolina State in overtime in Death Valley. Washington rounds out the Top 5.

Wisconsin fell to No. 10 after its second loss in two games. Nebraska, 6-0, is up to No. 8 after beating Indiana.

The SEC, however, leads the way with eight teams in the Top 25.
