Behind No. 1-ranked Oregon, there was a lot of shuffling among the top 10 teams on my Associated Press Top 25 ballot this week.
Rounding out the top 10 after Oregon are Texas, Notre Dame, Penn State, Georgia, Ohio State, SMU, Tennessee, Indiana and Miami.
New to my ballot this week are Louisville and Memphis.
Here’s my AP Top 25 ballot ahead of conference championship week compared with Action Network senior writer Collin Wilson’s betting power ratings.
Note: The “AP” column is my AP Poll ballot ranking for each team. The “PR” column is where each team sits in Action Network’s betting power ratings.
