Texas climbs to No. 1, Oregon plummets in latest AP Top 25 college football rankings

Texas climbed to No. 1 in the latest AP Top 25 college football rankings, published September 13, 2026, following a turbulent Week 2 in which the previous top-ranked team lost and two other top-11 teams fell to unranked opponents. Oregon suffered a significant drop in the poll as a result of the upsets. Notable teams receiving votes outside the top 25 included Washington (172 points), Florida (83), and Boise State (57).
