A quartet of top-10 ranked teams are set to fall when the US LBM Coaches Poll releases on Sunday, Oct. 19.
No. 2 Miami was upset by Louisville 24-21 on Friday, Oct. 17, and No. 10 LSU went to Nashville and fell to No. 18 Vanderbilt 31-24. No. 5 Ole Miss, which fell to No. 7 Georgia 43-35 on the road, is also set to fall just a few spots in the rankings, along with No. 8 Texas Tech, which lost to Arizona State 26-22.
Georgia Tech will likely find itself in the top-10 of the Coaches Poll after its 7-0 start, as the Yellow Jackets defeated Duke 27-18 on the road in Week 8. No. 13 Oklahoma could also jump back into the top 10 after a slew of losses by other teams.
No. 6 Alabama also picked up its fourth consecutive ranked win after dismantling Tennessee 37-20 at home.
Here's a look at the updated polls after Week 8 of the college football season.
