College football was back in (nearly) full force this weekend as College GameDay hit the road for the first time this season and games took place from sunrise to sunset across the country with several Power 5 teams playing over the weekend.
While teams from the Southeastern Conference aren’t scheduled to kick off for another two weeks, the league beings play on Saturday, Sept. 26, the AP Poll has updated its rankings after the ACC and Big 12 started their respective seasons this weekend.
If you were unaware, the Big Ten and Pac-12 teams that were previously ranked in the AP poll have been removed from the rankings in this updated edition of the poll.
