- College football rankings after Week 9: Updated US LBM Coaches Poll, AP Top 25
Texas A&M football flexed its muscles in Week 9 of the season.
The No. 3 Aggies moved to 8-0 on the season after their dominant 49-25 win over LSU, giving them a case to be the No. 2-ranked team in the US LBM Coaches Poll ahead of Week 10. No. 2 Indiana gave no reasons to be jumped, however, as it defeated UCLA 56-6.

Alabama and Texas avoided devastating upsets, as the Crimson Tide found themselves down 22-14 to South Carolina in the final five minutes before scoring a game-tying touchdown and two-point conversion, later winning 29-22 in the final moments. Texas, meanwhile, defeated Mississippi State 45-38 in overtime despite being down 17 points in the fourth quarter.
The College Football Playoff race for Group of Five teams is still shady, as perceived frontrunner USF fell to Memphis 34-31 on the road just a week after Memphis lost to UAB.
Here's a look at the latest US LBM Coaches Poll after Week 9.
