Sports Pulse<\/p>\n
Georgia, Miami, Penn State, and Ohio State hold the top spots in the latest NCAA Re-Rank.Indiana made a significant jump to No. 8 after a dominant win against Illinois.Memphis is now the leading Group of Five contender for a College Football Playoff spot.<\/p>\n
Georgia<\/a>, Miami, Penn State and Ohio State remain atop the USA TODAY Sports NCAA Re-Rank 1-136 heading into one of the biggest weekends of the college footbal<\/a> regular season.<\/p>\n Saturday\u2019s slate for Week 5 includes Oregon at Penn State, LSU at Mississippi and Alabama at Georgia.<\/p>\n The top seven in the re-rank didn\u2019t budge, though there was some debate over whether No. 7 Oklahoma deserved to move ahead of No. 6 LSU after beating Auburn 24-17<\/a>. The Sooners<\/a>\u2019 r\u00e9sum\u00e9 also benefits from No. 20 Michigan\u2019s 30-27 win at Nebraska. But the Tigers<\/a> were able to stay in front after putting up a season-high 530 yards in a 56-10 win against Southeastern Louisiana.<\/p>\n The big mover in this week\u2019s 1-136 was No. 8 Indiana, which rose 12 spots after a 63-10 romp over No. 21 Illinois<\/a>. The Hoosiers played a near-perfect game on offense and dominated the line of scrimmage against an opponent previously considered one of the most physical in the Big Ten.<\/p>\n Another team making a big jump is No. 25 Memphis, which climbed 17 spots after beating Arkansas 32-31. The win makes the Tigers the current favorite for the Group of Five bid to the College Football Playoff, though that could quickly change with the start of American play.<\/p>\n The list of teams experiencing double-digit drops begins with No. 64 Clemson<\/a> and No. 65 Florida<\/a>. The Tigers and Gators are both down 16 spots after falling to 1-3 with losses to Syracuse and Miami, respectively.<\/p>\n Others dropping down the 1-136 include No. 29 Utah (down 14), No. 40 South Carolina (14), No. 56 California (12), No. 67 West Virginia (10), No. 77 Wisconsin (14) and No. 109 Oklahoma State (16).<\/p>\n![](\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/86285788007-rerank-0922.jpg\"\/)
