Biloxi Gulfport, MS, October 26, 2026 —
Miami remains No. 1 in the latest Associated Press Top 25 college football poll, while Ohio State has moved up to No. 2. BYU, which had held the second spot, dropped to No. 8 after a recent loss, according to the poll summary.
The changes mark a substantial shift near the top of the rankings. Ohio State’s rise places the team directly behind Miami, while BYU’s fall moves it out of the top five. The summary describes the season as highly unpredictable, with significant movement in the rankings.
The information provided does not identify BYU’s opponent, give the score or date of the loss, or explain the results behind Ohio State’s climb. It also does not include vote totals, the poll’s full rankings, or details about other teams’ movements. No further cause for the ranking changes was provided.
The latest poll therefore establishes a revised top-two order, with Miami still leading and Ohio State now in second, alongside a notable drop for BYU. The supplied details do not indicate whether these positions are expected to change in a future poll or provide additional context about the teams’ seasons. For now, the reported movement underscores the volatility described in the summary, while leaving the specific performances and voting margins behind the changes unspecified.
