After 10 weeks of college football action, the College Football Playoff committee convened to determine the top 25 teams in the nation.
Only seven undefeated teams remain, but not all will sit at the top of the rankings. Baylor and Minnesota have surprised the college football world as Matt Rhule and P.J. Fleck are two of the hottest names in coaching this season.
However, neither team cracked the top-eight as several college football powers with only one loss came in ahead of the Bears and Gophers.
So, who took the No. 1 spot for the first time this season?
Thanks to an impressive start to the season, Ohio State sits on top.
Take a look at the full top 25 below.

A huge weekend of college football remains. LSU and Alabama will battle it out for SEC supremacy. The winner will control the SEC West and be in great position for the SEC title game and a potential College Football Playoff berth.
Meanwhile, in the Big Ten, we’ll finally get to see what Fleck and the Gophers can do against top competition. Undefeated Minnesota faces off against undefeated Penn State in a massive game for both programs.
