Oregon remains No. 1 on my Associated Press Top 25 ballot because of the Ducks’ head-to-head win vs. Ohio State.
I have the Buckeyes second, followed by Texas, Indiana and Ole Miss. BYU’s upset loss to Kansas dropped the Cougars out of my top 10.
New to my ballot this week: South Carolina, Tulane, UNLV, Illinois and Syracuse.
Here’s my AP Top 25 ballot for Week 13 of the college football season 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.
