After a weekend when three of the top-five teams went down, there are big changes in the Coaches Poll for Week 7.
Alabama and Oregon hold steady in the top two spots of the Week 7 Coaches Poll Top 25, but little else is the same after a Saturday full of upsets. The Ducks did receive a first-place vote for the first time since Week 3.
South Carolina, West Virginia and Kansas State round out the brand new top five after each notched a big win this weekend.
The former members of the top five, LSU, Florida State and Georgia, saw big drops after their losses. The Tigers now sit at No. 8, while the Seminoles and Bulldogs both find themselves outside the top 10. FSU sits at No. 11, while the Bulldogs drop to No. 12.
Florida jumps to No. 6 after taking down LSU. Notre Dame, USC, and Oklahoma all move up to complete the top 10. Louisiana Tech and Iowa State make their season debuts in the poll at Nos. 24 and 25.
