Clemson stays No. 3 in AP Top 25


by - Staff Writer -

Clemson remained in the No. 3 spot behind Georgia in the Associated Press top 25 on Sunday.

Both on the road this weekend, the Bulldogs pulled away to a 43-29 win over Missouri and Clemson rolled over Georgia Tech, 49-21.

In terms of first-place votes, two of Clemson's went to Alabama (60) and left the Tigers with a single No. 1 vote. Ohio State and LSU round out the top-5.

Seven ranked teams fell this week, including five to unranked opponents led by previous No. 13 Virginia Tech’s surprising 49-35 loss at new-to-FBS Old Dominion. While they stayed in the Coaches Poll, the Hokies did indeed drop out of the AP Top 25.

Duke debuted at No. 22 in the AP Poll after its 4-0 start.
