College football rankings: AP Top 25 Week 11 projection
The college football rankings will certainly get a shakeup Sunday afternoon and on into Tuesday for the College Football Playoff Rankings.
Tennessee, which was ranked No. 1 in the CFP rankings, was manhandled against Georgia Saturday 27-13. The Bulldogs defense suffocated the Volunteers high-powered offense, and the Bulldogs will remain the top-ranked team in the nation, according to the AP Top 25 poll. UGA will also likely jump to No. 1 in the Playoff rankings.
Elsewhere, LSU shocked Alabama in Death Valley with an epic 32-31 upset. Instead of tying the game in overtime, LSU went for the 2-point conversion and the win, and Tigers quarterback Jayden Daniels hit tight end Mason Taylor for the game winner.
Unranked Notre Dame also upset Clemson 35-14. Dabo Swinney described it best — “total ass kicking.”
Below is how we think the AP Top 25 will look Sunday afternoon.
