The top nine teams stayed in their place, with Utah leapfrogging Michigan at No. 10. The Wolverines were on a bye week ahead of their big Week 4 matchup with Wisconsin.

Similar to the Coaches Poll, both Maryland and Michigan State fell out of the rankings after being on the wrong end of upsets Saturday.
