Notre Dame drops to No. 5 in AP Top 25 poll after Week 8

Notre Dame has fallen one spot to No. 5 in the Associated Press Top 25 poll after not playing in Week 8. The team's drop follows their previous loss to BYU, which itself fell six spots to No. 8 after losing to UCF. Indiana's overtime victory against Michigan may have contributed to Notre Dame's decline, as the Hoosiers leap-frogged over them. Interestingly, Notre Dame's position improved in the coaches' poll. Miami remains the top team, followed by Ohio State and Georgia in the current rankings, as the college football shifts with ongoing upsets.
