And just like that, the ACC’s shot at placing multiple teams<\/a> in the College Football<\/a> Playoff might be up in smoke. Miami’s<\/a> and Georgia Tech’s<\/a> stunning upset road losses impacted Sunday’s Week 11 Coaches Poll Top 25 rankings after both ACC frontrunners went down in shocking fashion to SMU<\/a> and NC State<\/a>.<\/p>\n The Hurricanes’ second loss in their last three games torched their placement in the poll to No. 18, a shell of where things stood following a 5-0 start this season. Georgia Tech, the ACC’s long remaining uneaten before giving up nearly 600 yards of total offense against the Wolfpack, slipped from No. 7 to No. 14.<\/p>\n “They lined up and physically kicked our (butt) in a lot of ways,” Georgia Tech coach Brent Key said. “It is what it is. That’s on me. I take responsibility for it.”<\/p>\n Oklahoma’s<\/a> win at Tennessee<\/a> in a playoff elimination game, of sorts, is a momentum-builder for the Sooners, who moved inside the top 15, while Texas<\/a> holding off Vanderbilt<\/a> keeps the Longhorns’ playoff hopes<\/a> within reach.<\/p>\n The weekend began with six unblemished teams left in the FBS ranks<\/a>, but only Ohio State<\/a>, Indiana<\/a>, BYU<\/a> and Texas A&M<\/a> remain. The Hoosiers thumped Maryland<\/a>, while the Buckeyes handled Penn State<\/a> behind a multi-touchdown outing from quarterback Julian Sayin<\/a>. BYU and Texas A&M were open ahead of pivotal conference matchups next week.<\/p>\n With losses by previously 23rd-ranked Navy<\/a> and Tulane<\/a>, the Group of Five’s top playoff threat remains Memphis<\/a>. The Tigers handled Rice<\/a> on Friday night and need three more wins to lock in a berth in the American title game in December.<\/p>\n First-place votes in parenthesis\u00a0<\/p>\n Week 11 Coaches PollOhio State (60)Indiana (1)Texas A&M (3)Alabama<\/a>Georgia<\/a>Oregon<\/a>Ole Miss<\/a>BYUTexas Tech<\/a>Notre Dame<\/a>Virginia<\/a>OklahomaTexasGeorgia TechLouisville<\/a>VanderbiltMissouri<\/a>MiamiUtah<\/a>Michigan<\/a>USC<\/a>TennesseeMemphisIowa<\/a>Cincinnati<\/a><\/p>\n Schools Dropped Out:\u00a0No. 22 Houston<\/a>; No. 23 Navy;<\/p>\n Others Receiving Votes:\u00a0Washington<\/a> 82; North Texas<\/a> 60; James Madison<\/a> 44; San Diego State<\/a> 30; Pittsburgh<\/a> 29; South Florida<\/a> 21; Houston 18; Navy 16; TCU<\/a> 12; Illinois<\/a> 8; SMU 6; Arizona State<\/a> 2; Tulane 1; Minnesota<\/a> 1; LSU<\/a> 1;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Getty Images And just like that, the ACC’s shot at placing multiple teams in the College Football Playoff…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":30518,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[22036,2536,22035,4638,21702,10243,143,4027,4683,22037,7122,123,4641,125,5079,124,10783,4684,6790,10253,6792],"class_list":["post-30517","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-miami","tag-ap-top-25","tag-byu-cougars","tag-coaches-poll","tag-college-football-odds","tag-college-football-playoff-rankings","tag-college-football-rankings","tag-college-football","tag-georgia-tech","tag-georgia-tech-yellow-jackets","tag-heisman-trophy-odds","tag-mario-cristobal","tag-miami","tag-miami-fla-hurricanes","tag-miami-headlines","tag-miami-hurricanes","tag-miami-news","tag-ohio-state","tag-ohio-state-buckeyes","tag-oklahoma-sooners","tag-texas-am-aggies","tag-texas-longhorns"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30517","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=30517"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/30517\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/30518"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=30517"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=30517"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-fl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=30517"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
