Notre Dame is No. 1 in The Associated Press college football rankings with nothing left to do but wait to find out who its opponent in the national championship game will be.

Toward the bottom of the rankings released Sunday, there was plenty of movement. Ten Top 25 teams lost this weekend, the most since October 11, 2003.

No. 2 Alabama and No. 3 Georgia, both easy winners in rivalry games Saturday, held their spots in the rankings and will play for the SEC title in Atlanta next weekend.

Ohio State remained No. 4 after completing its perfect season with a victory against Michigan. The Buckeyes (12-0) are banned from the postseason because of NCAA sanctions. Florida moved up a spot to No. 5 after beating Florida State.

Nebraska moved up three spots to number 14 in the AP poll and one position to 13th in the USA Today Coaches Poll.
