It’s crazy to think college football has eight weeks in the books, but here we are. Another Saturday of ranked matchups and upsets mean another shakeup in the polls. Eight teams in the AP top-25 have lost in the last two weeks.
In the latest AP Poll, Michigan moves up one spot to No. 5.

No. 6 Michigan went to East Lansing against the No. 24 ranked Spartans and got the job done 21-7. The only score the Wolverines gave up was a short field drive after a fumble. This win was Michigan’s first against a ranked opponent on the road since 2006.
