After not being the consensus No. 1 team in the land last week, the Florida State Seminoles are this week after a weekend full of upsets in college football.
In the AP Poll, the Noles are followed by the Auburn Tigers, Ole Miss Rebels & Mississippi State Bulldogs (tied for third) and Baylor Bears. In the Amway Coaches Poll, they are followed by Auburn, Baylor, Ole Miss and the Notre Dame Fighting Irish.
As you might expect, the only team ranked from the American Athletic Conference is the East Carolina Pirates who come in at 19/19.
There are no teams from the American among the others receiving votes in either poll.
