College football rankings for week 16 of the 2020 season have been released. Alabama remains the top-ranked team, while Cincinnati moved up to No. 6.
Alabama retained their near unanimous hold on the top spot following their 52-3 victory on the road over the Arkansas Razorbacks. Notre Dame remains in second place although they were off on Saturday.
Ohio State remained third in the AP Poll and fourth in the Coaches Poll even though their game against Michigan was canceled. Clemson was off this weekend but held at third in the Coaches Poll and fourth in the AP Poll.
Texas A&M was slated to host Ole Miss, but the game was canceled. Still, the Aggies remained fifth in both polls. The Florida Gators were upset by LSU, 37-34, and dropped five spots to No. 11 in both the AP and Coaches polls.
Colorado (21) and Wisconsin (25) each dropped out of both polls following their losses in Week 15.
Cincinnati is currently the highest-ranked non-power conference team at No. 6. The next closest team is Coastal Carolina at No. 9.
