Ohio State Moves to No. 2 in AP Top 25 as BYU Falls to No. 8
The Associated Press Top 25 college football poll has been significantly reordered, with Ohio State moving up to the No. 2 spot and Miami remaining at No. 1. BYU fell to No. 8 following a loss.
Elmira, NY, October 25, 2026 —
The Associated Press Top 25 college football poll has been significantly reordered, placing Ohio State at No. 2 while Miami remains in the top spot. BYU dropped to No. 8 after a loss, according to the available summary of the poll changes.
The reported movement identifies three teams and their positions: Miami is No. 1, Ohio State is No. 2 and BYU is No. 8. The summary describes the poll as significantly reordered but does not provide the full Top 25, the positions of other teams or the number of places Ohio State and BYU moved.
BYU’s fall is attributed to a loss, but the summary does not identify the opponent, the game score or when the game was played. It also does not specify whether Ohio State’s move to No. 2 followed a win, a change in other teams’ positions or another development. No additional explanation for Miami remaining No. 1 was provided.
The poll’s publication date and the week or season it covers were not included in the information available. As a result, the precise scale of the reshuffling and the surrounding circumstances cannot be established from the summary alone. The reported positions indicate the relative standing of the three named teams in this poll, but do not provide further detail about the rankings or the results behind them.
