Clemson fell to 25th place in the Associated Press college football vote on Sunday and was ranked in the top 10 for 97 consecutive weeks.
The Tigers (2-2) suffered a second defeat on Saturday, doubling overtime in North Carolina. It also dropped 16 spots from 9th place in the AP Top 25 announced by Regions Bank.
Clemson’s top 10 streak was tied to Alabama, the second longest run in college football and the second longest in AP voting history, after Miami’s 137 from 1985 to 1993.
Crimson Tide remained number one with 58 out of 62 votes. Second place Georgia won the remaining four votes. Oregon remained in third place. Pennsylvania State University rose 2nd to 4th, Iowa stayed 5th, and Oklahoma fell 2nd to 6th.
Cincinnati moved up 1st to 7th, and Arkansas moved up 8th to 8th after defeating Texas A & M. Razorbucks has the highest ranking as it was 8th at the beginning of the 2012 season.
That season, Arkansas lost to Louisiana-Monroe the second game of the season and was never ranked again. Razorbucks finished fifth in the season under Bobby Petrino.
No.9 Notre Dame and Florida closed the top ten.
Voting points
Clemson managed to extend the week’s streak, which was ranked 107, the third longest active streak after Alabama (218) and Ohio (150).
The Birth of the Backs win streak does not include votes that were ineligible during the 2020 season as Big Ten had no plans to play due to the coronavirus pandemic.
Alabama’s current poll series follows Nebraska’s 348 from 1981 to 2002.

Ranking vs. ranking
No.1 Alabama’s No.12 Mississippi. The first ranked match between the Rebels and Tide since 2017.
8th Arkansas in 2nd Georgia. The resurrection of Razorbucks is one of the stories of the first month of the season.
No.9 Notre Dame’s No.7 Cincinnati. Fighting Irish mandated a barecat that Notre Dame Cathedral needs to be as good as possible if it has a shot to sneak into the playoffs.
No.19 Oklahoma’s No. 21 Baylor. You may stay short in the rankings of one of the Big 12 rivals.
