Michigan falls out of AP Top 25 after controversial win over Western Michigan
The first Associated Press Top 25 college football poll of the regular season has seen significant movement following Week 1. Ohio State remains the No. 1 ranked team after a dominant 56-3 victory over Ball State.
Michigan has fallen out of the Top 25 entirely after a controversial 13-12 win against Western Michigan. The Wolverines' victory was secured via a last-second 47-yard Hail Mary pass from Bryce Underwood to J.J. Buchanan, following a replay decision that added one second back to the clock.
Other notable shifts include LSU rising to No. 8 after a 51-10 win over Clemson, marking a successful debut for coach Lane Kiffin. Oregon dropped from No. 2 to No. 6 after a narrow 34-27 win over Boise State, while Georgia moved up to the No. 2 spot.
Looking ahead to Week 2, the marquee matchup features No. 1 Ohio State against No. 4 Texas in Austin.
