AP Top 25: Alabama Holds Firm in Top Spot, But Week 2 Sees Big Shakeups

Alabama still leads the AP Top 25 Poll, but UCLA and ISC fell out of the lineup to leave Stanford, Washington and Oregon as the only PAC-12 remaining NCAA Football teams. The Associated Press began its college football poll on October 19, 1936 and it is now the longest-running survey of those that award national titles at the end of the season.

The preseason weekly poll was started in 1950 and is comprised of a panel of 61 sports writers and broadcasters nationwide. All participants have an extensive background in covering college football.
