College football rankings for week 10 of the 2020 season have been released. Clemson (7-0) remains the top-ranked team, while Coastal Carolina (6-0) moved up in both polls.
Clemson defeated Boston College at home, 34-28, without the services of quarterback Trevor Lawrence due to him contracting COVID-19. The close win, coupled with a 41-0 Alabama victory over Mississippi State, resulted in the Tigers losing 19 first-place votes in the AP poll and nine first-place votes in the Coaches Poll.
Alabama (2), Ohio State (3), Notre Dame (4), and Georgia (5) round out the top five in both polls.
The Coastal Carolina Chanticleers, which crushed Georgia State 51-0 on Saturday, moved up five spots to No. 15 in the AP Poll and five spots to No. 16 in the Coaches Poll.
Kansas State and Penn State each dropped out of both polls, while North Carolina dropped out of the AP Poll following losses in Week 9.
