With Alabama and Miami both losing, the CBS Sports 130 rankings experienced a major shake up as we approach the finish line of the 2017 season.
Auburn moved up three spots to No. 6 in our ranking of all 130 FBS teams after beating Alabama, trailing No. 1 Oklahoma and No. 2 Clemson for the top spot. Wisconsin, the last undefeated Power Five team in the country, checked in at No. 4, and the Crimson Tide were down four spots to No. 5 following the loss.
The biggest shake ups in the top 25 spots of the rankings came from two of the biggest rivalry games of the weekend. Washington's sound defeat of Washington State in the Apple Cup resulted in adjustments of four spots or more and Mississippi State dropped nine spots after losing to Ole Miss.
College football experts from CBS Sports and 247Sports contribute ballots each week, which are averaged together for our rankings. You can see the top-25 below, and 26-130 on our rankings page.

Biggest Movers
- Louisville (+7): The Cardinals are back on the edge of the top 25 in the rankings for the first time in weeks after shredding Syracuse and Kentucky by a combined score of 100-27. Ranked No. 34 a week ago, the Cards finish the regular season at No. 27 in the CBS Sports 130.
- Notre Dame (-6): With no conference championship to turn things around before bowl season, the late-season stumble by Notre Dame has resulted in a drop in the rankings. The Irish are down six spots from a week ago after being ranked as a top-five team earlier in the season.
- Washington State (-8): Our CBS Sports 130 voters held Washington State in pretty high regard this season, so when the Cougars got pasted in the Apple Cup there was a pretty dramatic adjustment. Our voters were equally impressed by Washington in the win, moving the Huskies up four spots to No. 13.
- Mississippi State (-9): There is no doubt that the loss of Nick Fitzgerald requires consideration when reacting to Mississippi State's Egg Bowl loss to Ole Miss, and that was likely the case as the Bulldogs held on inside the top 25 at No. 24.
