Dave Portnoy reveals his new AP Top-10 after crazy college football’s Week 7

Week 7 of college football brought a series of surprising upsets and unexpected outcomes, intensifying the national championship race. In the aftermath, Barstool Sports founder Dave Portnoy unveiled his latest AP Top 10 rankings on X, reacting to the chaotic slate of games. Portnoy described the day as "the wackiest, wildest, most awesome day of college football of all time" and shared his revised list of the top 10 teams.

Despite the intensity of the weekend, Portnoy emphasized that "anybody can beat anybody" and highlighted the need for multiple teams from the Big 12 to secure playoff spots.

Notable results included BYU's 28-24 victory over No. 2 Notre Dame, the first win against the Fighting Irish since 2004. However, BYU was not the only team to achieve a significant result during Week 7. No. 1 Georgia suffered a 27-24 loss to Auburn, while No. 6 Alabama fell to No. 14 Tennessee by a score of 26-10. Texas also experienced a disappointing loss, falling 27-24 to Florida at home. Meanwhile, No. 5 Indiana suffered a narrow 19-15 defeat to No. 4 Ohio State.

The weekend's results underscored the fact that rankings alone do not guarantee a team's success. Every matchup presented an opportunity for an underdog to challenge expectations and deliver a memorable upset. As of Sunday, the AP Poll's first-place votes were split among three teams: No. 3 Miami (FL), No. 4 Ohio State, and No. 8 BYU. The chaos of Week 7 left college football fans wondering how the rankings would be impacted and which team would ultimately claim the top spot in the upcoming poll.
