Where Notre Dame ranks in Week 14 Associated Press Poll after beating Army
Indiana is no longer the top-ranked college football team from the Hoosier State. That title belongs to Notre Dame.
The Fighting Irish moved into the top five of the Coaches Poll and the Associated Press Poll by way of their 49-14 victory over Army and the Hoosiers’ 38-15 loss to Ohio State. Notre Dame is No. 5 in both sets of rankings, which were released Sunday afternoon.
No. 5 is where Notre Dame (10-1) ascended to after a Week 1 win at then-No. 20 Texas A&M. The Irish went tumbling out of the top 15 following a Week 2 loss to Northern Illinois but have been on a steady climb toward the top of the rankings ever since. The win over the Black Knights at Yankee Stadium on Saturday was the ninth in a row for head coach Marcus Freeman‘s team.
The only team Notre Dame beat in those nine consecutive wins that is appearing in the polls is Army. The Black Knights are No. 22 in the Coaches Poll and No. 25 in the AP Top 25 after suffering their first defeat of the season. Texas A&M, meanwhile, is also still ranked even though the Aggies took their third loss of the year against Auburn in quadruple overtime late last night.
Notre Dame finishes the regular season at unranked USC (6-5) at 3:30 p.m. ET on Saturday.
