The second AP Top 25 Football Poll will be released on Sept. 8. The lone remaining team to play is SMU, which faces Florida State in a Labor Day special.
Most of the top teams in the country enjoyed romps. Notre Dame pulled away from Wisconsin with a strong second half performance on Sunday.
Top 10 teams that had a major struggle were Oregon, which managed to outlast Boise State in a tussle on Saturday between a Big 10 and Pac-12 school, and Ole Miss, which survived a slobberknocker against Louisville on a last-second field goal.
Michigan falls out of these predictions after its lackluster performance that needed a miracle to defeat MAC foe Western Michigan. The Wolverines get a chance to find a spot back in the rankings this week because they play host to Oklahoma at the Big House on Saturday.
