It wasn’t a pretty win for Michigan football in Week 4, as the Wolverines took down the Maryland Terrapins, 34-27. But the maize and blue weren’t alone in the ugly win category on Saturday.
Georgia merely beat Kent State, 39-22. Clemson held on for dear life against Wake Forest. Oklahoma lost to Kansas State. USC outlasted Oregon State. Arkansas lost to Texas A&M, Penn State was OK beating Central Michigan 33-14. Texas lost to Texas Tech, Michigan State was annihilated by Minnesota, and Miami lost to Middle Tennessee. Thus, there was a lot of movement in the latest USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll.
Of course, since Alabama and Ohio State rolled, they were still going to be ranked highly. But what of the rest? Did any of them move, including Michigan?
Here is the full ranking below.
