Michigan 1, TCU 1. Week 7 of the 2025 college football season, as usual, brought plenty of drama.

The highest-ranked squad to fall this week was No. 3 Oregon, which lost its first regular season Big Ten game since joining the conference in 2024. A huge 30-20 victory for the Indiana Hoosiers is set to alter the top portion of this week's rankings — but that wasn't the only significant result. Michigan (31-13 loss to USC), Iowa State (24-17 loss to Colorado) and Florida State (34-31 loss to Pitt) were among the AP Top-25 squads to fall in Week 7. In the Red River Rivalry, Arch Manning and Texas came through with a much-needed 23-6 victory, something to build off for the Longhorns. And elsewhere, while Penn State had already fallen from the polls following its defeat to UCLA, the Nittany Lions' struggles continued with a home loss to Northwestern.

After that big-time road win, Oregon is now up to No. 2, and Penn State slid to No.

7 on the heels of a missed opportunity at home. That wasn't the only marquee matchup of the night as No. 17 Alabama rolled into Athens and took down No. 5 Georgia, 24-21. That loss dropped Kirby Smart's record against the Crimson Tide to 1-7, and it dropped the Bulldogs to No. 12 in the poll.

Meanwhile, Alabama surged up to No. 10. Even before all that madness, the weekend began with a Friday night slate in which Arizona State handed No. 24 TCU its first loss, and Virginia pulled off a major upset against No. 8 Florida State. Both of those teams got dinged in rankings as the Horned Frogs dropped out, and the Seminoles slipped out of the top 10 to No.

18. Below is the full AP Top 25 poll for Week 5. First-place votes are in parentheses. It was a rather chalky week in college football leading into Thanksgiving, with three of the nation’s top-10 teams on a bye and the other seven taking care of business ahead of rivalry weekend. That doesn’t mean there wasn’t anything to write home about, however.
