After another week of inaction due to the COVID-19 outbreak on the team that began following its loss to Texas A&M on Oct. 10, Florida’s position in the AP Top 25 held firm.

The Gators are once again ranked No. 10, one spot below their ranking in the Amway Coaches Poll. They are the fourth-highest ranked squad in the SEC behind No. 2 Alabama, No. 5 Georgia and No. 8 Texas A&M. No other conference team ranks in the top 25.

With the Big Ten in action for the first time this weekend, Ohio State jumped both Notre Dame and Georgia to move up to No. 3 after a dominating 52-17 win over Nebraska.

Here’s the full top 25.
