Where did USA TODAY Sports place Notre Dame in this week’s Re-Rank?

Notre Dame has flirted with the No. 2 spot in the USA Today Sports' NCAA Re-Rank before, but was the win over Stanford enough to move the Irish up?

Notre Dame secured the second position in this week's USA TODAY Sports NCAA Re-Rank, following Week 6 of the college football season. The Fighting Irish had climbed from No. 3, thanks to upsets and close victories. Notre Dame's impressive start this season included a dominant 57-3 win over Stanford, which brought their overall record to 6-0.

USA TODAY Sports' Paul Myerberg maintained Georgia's top spot in the re-rank, despite their 20-17 road win over Alabama. Myerberg noted that Notre Dame and No. 3 Miami lack the necessary records to challenge Georgia at the moment. Meanwhile, No. 8 BYU fell to No. 13 in the re-rank after being previously at No. 11. BYU faced Notre Dame this weekend.
