USA Today Coaches Poll: Two big upsets lead to major changes in latest rankings

The USA Today Coaches Poll isn’t going to go through the complete overhaul like the Associated Press Poll will this week. There will be a few changes with the Pac-12, Mountain West and MAC announcing their return to fall football, but the B1G was already included in last Sunday’s Top 25.

That was the big change last weekend.

Now, the coaches poll will see some significant changes after a pair of top five squads a game this weekend. Unranked Kansas State defeated No. 3 Oklahoma, while unranked Mississippi State dropped No. 5 LSU. Both saw significant drops in the latest rankings.

Every other team that was ranked in the coaches poll was either a winner or did not play in Week 4.

Here’s what the latest USA Today Coaches Poll looks like after two major upsets and three more FBS conferences joined the fall football season:

1. Clemson
2. Alabama
3. Florida
4. Georgia
5. Notre Dame
6. Ohio State
7. Auburn
8. Miami
9. Texas
10. Penn State
11. North Carolina
12. UCF
13. Texas A&M
14. Mississippi State
15. Cincinnati
16. Oklahoma
17. LSU
18. Wisconsin
19. Oklahoma State
20. Tennessee
21. Michigan
22. BYU
23. Virginia Tech
24. Memphis
25. Pitt
