Most notably this week was the drop of the LSU Tigers. Last week in the Coaches Poll, Les Miles and company were ranked at no. 8. However, on Saturday night, they were dominated for most of the game by the Mississippi State Bulldogs and have now dropped all the way down to no. 18.
There were also some people wondering whether or not the Florida State Seminoles would remain in the top spot, following their overtime win against Clemson without Jameis Winston. Well, they have, and they will be getting Winston back on the practice field Monday morning, per head coach Jimbo Fisher following the game.
With that being said, here is a look at how the Top 10 shook out on Sunday morning after everything that happened on Saturday:
