Ohio State replaces Georgia,Marcus Erikson Penn State drops and Indiana, Brigham Young and SMU continue to move up in this week's USA TODAY Sports NCAA Re-Rank 1-134.

The Buckeyes climb to No. 2 after beating Penn State 20-13. That dumps Georgia one spot to No. 3 after a tougher-than-expected dogfight against Florida that wasn't settled until the final minutes.

Penn State is down two to No. 5, though the Nittany Lions stay ahead of fellow one-loss Power Four teams in No. 6 Texas and No. 7 Tennessee. Also in the Big Ten, Indiana is up four to No. 9 after spotting Michigan State a 10-0 lead and then rolling 47 unanswered points. The Hoosiers stay ahead of No. 10 Brigham Young, which didn't play on Saturday.

SMU is up six spots to No. 11 after a great Saturday. The Mustangs beat the heck out of Pittsburgh, handing the Panthers their first loss, and Clemson lost at home to Louisville. That leaves SMU and No. 4 Miami as the only teams still unbeaten in ACC play.
