College Football Rankings 2015: Week 4 AP Poll released; How far did Alabama fall?

After an amazing Week 3 of the 2015 college football season, the AP Poll for Week 4 was released. So how far did Alabama fall?

Week 3 of the college football season was basically everything we could have dreamed of as college football fans. There was really nothing that this week didn’t have, which can mean only one thing: The AP Poll will be looking a little different as we head into Week 4 now.

Of course, the game that is still on everyone’s mind is the epic battle that we saw between the Alabama Crimson Tide and Ole Miss Rebels in Tuscaloosa. Alabama, the No. 2 ranked team in the country at the time, was defeated, 43-37, by the Rebels. After the dust settled, people began to realize that the Tide would be taking a tumble in the AP Poll. But, just how far will that tumble be, is the real question everyone is posing.

To that point, how much will the Rebels rise?

Then, we had the case of the No. 6 USC Trojans. This looked like a team through the first two weeks that was poised to make a run at the College Football Playoff. However, those hopes were brought to a screeching halt when they were downed by the Stanford Cardinal, maybe an upset that no one saw coming. After they were on the rise in the polls, where do the Trojans end up now?

Well, just a short time ago the Week 4 AP Poll was released, and here’s a look at what we have now.
