Elsewhere, No. 8 Georgia Tech and No. 10 Miami lost, as well as No. 14 Tennessee and No. 17 Cincinnati. Texas jumped all five of those teams in the newest ranking, as well as No. 19 Missouri, which was on a bye.

Georgia, Alabama and Ole Miss also find themselves in the top 10 out of the SEC. The Crimson Tide sits at No. 4, right behind undefeated A&M, with the Bulldogs right behind them at No. 5. Ole Miss also remained at No. 7.
