Buckle up for the FOX Sports analyst\u2019s takes. <\/p>\n<p>Say goodbye to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/miami-hurricanes\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Miami<\/a>. The Hurricanes dropped out of Klatt\u2019s Top 10 after a loss to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/teams\/smu-mustangs\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">SMU<\/a> over the weekend, due to a terrible interception thrown by quarterback <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/rivals\/carson-beck-18711\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Carson Beck<\/a> in overtime. That wasn\u2019t the only reason they lost, but did that sting ever so much for the fans of The U.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/sites\/red-raider-sports\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Texas Tech<\/a> returns to the Top 10 to replace Miami. Where will everyone else slot in? Check out Klatt\u2019s rankings below via <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@JoelKlattShow\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">The Joel Klatt Show<\/a>, and see if your favorite team is getting some love this week.<\/p>\n<p>Ohio State got a slight scare in the first half against Penn State, before settling down in the second half. In the end, the Buckeyes would pull away. It\u2019s no surprise they\u2019re still ranked so highly in the Klatt\u2019s Top 10.<\/p>\n<p>Moving forward, Ohio State has just four games left before, presumably, the Big Ten Championship Game and the College Football Playoff. Before that, though, they\u2019ll need to stay focused and avoid any upset bids.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Untitled-7-1-1024x538.png\" alt=\"Indiana QB Fernando Mendoza\" class=\"wp-image-3845751\"  \/>(Robert Goddin | Imagn Images)<\/p>\n<p>Indiana remained perfect for the season. With that, they\u2019ve also remained incredibly highly ranked in Klatt\u2019s Top 10. This instance comes following a win over Maryland that was never all that close for the Hoosiers.<\/p>\n<p>Next week, Indiana turns its attention to Penn State. The Nittany Lions still have plenty of talent but with their current situation, it\u2019s hard to say how focused they are. Indiana needs to be on the ball, though, as they battle in the Big Ten Championship race.<\/p>\n<p>Texas A&amp;M had\u00a0a bye week in Week 10. That let them reset following an emotional win the week before against LSU. Importantly, it also didn\u2019t cost them in Klatt\u2019s Top 10 rankings.<\/p>\n<p>With four games left in the season, the Aggies are just one of two teams left in SEC play without a loss. That means they control their own destiny to the SEC Championship Game. It\u2019s not an easy schedule ahead, though, starting with Missouri next week.<\/p>\n<p>After getting a scare in Week 9, Alabama had a bye week in Week 10. That was time used to prepare for an interesting next home game \u2014 An LSU team with an interim coach will be coming to Tuscaloosa in Week 11.<\/p>\n<p>Despite coming off a bye, Alabama is still ranked highly in the Klatt\u2019s Top 10. More importantly, they\u2019re still unbeaten in SEC play and, therefore, are in a good spot to make it back to the SEC Championship Game.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Untitled-2025-09-08T160935.404-1024x538.png\" alt=\"Oregon HC Dan Lanning\" class=\"wp-image-3703214\"  \/>Ben Lonergan | The Register-Guard | USA TODAY NETWORK via Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>Oregon had the week off, looking to reset after star quarterback Dante Moore got banged up in Week 9. Regardless, the Ducks are still thought of as one of the best teams in the sport and find themselves in Klatt\u2019s Top 10.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Ducks have four more Big Ten games to wrap up the season. That starts with a tough road trip to Iowa next week. Oregon will need to be close to perfect for that run, though, if they want to have a shot to get back to the Big Ten Championship Game.<\/p>\n<p>Georgia was in Jacksonville for a rendezvous with rival Florida. There, the Bulldogs got all they could handle and more, before ultimately winning a close game. That win was a credit to the defense, consistently getting off the field on third and fourth downs.<\/p>\n<p>Going forward, Georgia needs some help to win the SEC. After all, with a loss to Alabama and no game against Texas A&amp;M, the Bulldogs are on the outside looking in. At the same time, Klatt\u2019s Top 10 shows how well respected this team is.<\/p>\n<p>Ole Miss has more than bounced back from its loss to Georgia. Now with two wins in a row since then, including Saturday\u2019s big win over South Carolina, the Rebels are back climbing in Klatt\u2019s Top 10.<\/p>\n<p>The challenge for Ole Miss is going to be that the SEC Championship Game is a long shot. Not playing Alabama or Texas A&amp;M hurts their chance to win a tiebreaker. Having lost to Georgia makes for another challenge. So, they\u2019ll need some help and a strong resume.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Untitled-55-1024x538.png\" alt=\"Notre Dame HC Marcus Freeman\" class=\"wp-image-3879602\"  \/>Michael Caterina | Imagn Images<\/p>\n<p>Notre Dame got off to a little bit of a slow start against Boston College, before flexing its muscles. It would be an Irish win, but there was major concern leaving the game on special teams. That\u2019s something that needs to be addressed before the postseason.<\/p>\n<p>The Irish know their ranking and where their opponents are ranked is vital to their success. After all, without a conference championship, they\u2019ll need to make the CFP as an at-large. So, they\u2019ll be happy to keep their winning ways going.<\/p>\n<p>9. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/college\/byu-cougars\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">BYU <\/a>(-1)\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>BYU was off in Week 10. Despite that, they\u2019re still in the Top 10 for Klatt. This comes after knocking off Iowa State the week before.<\/p>\n<p>Looking ahead, BYU looks to be in a good spot for the Big 12 Championship Game, as the only unbeaten team in conference play. At the same time, nobody in the conference wraps up with a tougher schedule than the Cougars though.<\/p>\n<p>The Texas Tech Red Raiders took care of business against Kansas State. In particular, a dominant second half helped them to pull away in a major way. So, their ranking in Klatt\u2019s Top 10 is earned.<\/p>\n<p>At the moment, Texas Tech is currently second in the Big 12 standings. There, they\u2019re battling for a shot at the conference championship game, making next week\u2019s game against BYU absolutely vital.<\/p>\n<p>\u2014 On3\u2019s Dan Morrison <a href=\"https:\/\/www.on3.com\/news\/coaches-poll-top-25-college-football-rankings-updated-after-week-10\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">contributed<\/a> to this article.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Another week has come and gone, and Joel Klatt has unveiled a new Top 10 with significant changes&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":270067,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[67],"tags":[399,398,396,397,99],"class_list":{"0":"post-270066","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-ncaa-football","8":"tag-football","9":"tag-ncaa","10":"tag-ncaa-football","11":"tag-ncaafootball","12":"tag-sports"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270066","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=270066"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/270066\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/270067"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=270066"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=270066"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=270066"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
