AP Poll: Oklahoma Jumps Iowa, North Carolina Moves Into Top 10

Another upset-filled weekend in November featured three top 10 teams losing as #7 Baylor fell 28-21 to #19 TCU on the road in double-overtime, while #10 Michigan was blown out 42-13 by #8 Ohio State and #6 Notre Dame lost 38-36 to #9 Stanford.

All three of those teams have now been eliminated from College Football Playoff contention, while eveyone in the top five held serve.

Iowa and Clemson stayed undefeated - the only two such teams in the country - while Alabama, Oklahoma, and Michigan State all won in convincing fashion. The Sooners also clinched the Big 12 in their final regular season game by knocking off in-state rival Oklahoma State.

The biggest riser this week was the North Carolina Tar Heels, who jumped from #11 to #8, though they're still the lowest ranked one-loss Power 5 team after their win over NC State on Saturday. Oklahoma also jumped Iowa into the #3 spot, reflecting the College Football Playoff rankings.
