Clemson ranked No. 4 in latest AP poll


by -

Clemson's 59-7 win over Boston College on Saturday didn't move the needle for the latest Associated Press Top 25 in a week where the top-4 all won.

Clemson remained No. 4 (1,406; 7 first-place votes) behind new No. 1 LSU (1,476 points; 17), Alabama (1,474; 21), Ohio State (1,468; 17), with Penn State rounding out the top-5 after Oklahoma's loss at Kansas State Saturday.

Over the weekend, Alabama topped Arkansas, 48-7, LSU edged previous No. 9-Auburn 23-20 and Ohio State downed former-No. 13 Wisconsin 38-7 on Saturday. Penn State stayed unbeaten with a 28-7 win at Michigan State and will travel to fellow unbeaten Minnesota after a bye week, as does LSU to Alabama.

The first College Football Playoff ranking is due in a little over a week (Nov. 5). Clemson fell to No. 3 in the latest Coaches Poll.

Wake Forest remains the ACC's other top-25 rep at No. 23.
