Murphy’s AP Top 25 After Week 1 | Little Rock News

Tom Murphy’s first-week AP Top 25 sees Ohio State atop the heap, with Miami, Georgia, and Indiana rounding out his top four—Texas sneaking in at No. 5. LSU, after a crushing win over Clemson, finally earns Murphy’s respect at No. 7, despite his initial reluctance. He drops Oregon and Ole Miss for underwhelming performances, and even sidelines Michigan and Vanderbilt—both winners but lacking dominance. Clemson’s loss to LSU seals its exit from the rankings. Newcomers Florida and Arizona State climb in at Nos. 23 and 24, while Murphy briefly eyed South Carolina and Minnesota before settling. With just one week in, the landscape is already shifting—and this is just one voter’s take. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
