Florida remains ranked No. 9 in the latest Associated Press college football Top 25 ranking.
The Gators (4-0), winners of eight consecutive games, host the Towson Tigers (3-1) at 4 p.m. Saturday (SEC Network) in the second of two games against teams from the Football Championship Subdivision. UF defeated Tennessee 34-3 on Saturday at Ben Hill Griffin Stadium.
Wisconsin moved into the top 10 for the first time this season, landing at No. 8 in The Associated Press college football poll after a weekend during which seven ranked teams lost.
The top of the AP Top 25 presented by Regions Bank remained mostly unchanged, with Clemson staying No. 1, followed by three Southeastern Conference teams: No. 2 Alabama, No. 3 Georgia and No. 4 LSU. Ohio State edged past Oklahoma to No. 5.
Clemson received 55 first-place votes from the media panel. Alabama had six and Georgia received one.

I don’t care where we’re ranked right now. As gi says “just win baby”.
Agree, Jack. Win, and the rankings will take care of themselves. The opportunity is there to beat the #7 team in the Swamp, the #4 team on the road, and the #3 team in Jax. A tall order, but the Gators control their own destiny.
Absolutely, I dont care if Wi got ranked ahead of us ’cause we have to play every SEC team ahead of us this year, including Bama if we get to the SEC champ., Win out, were in, lose one(as long as it isnt the champ or Ga) and were in! Will we do it, probably not but we will compete in each and every game, I cant ask for more!
Amen Jack! Winning cures most ills. And these Gators keep finding ways to win, and ultimately that’s all that matters in the end. Not to mention HALF of this week’s Top 10 are SEC schools, so…
Go Gators! Just win baby!
