Another week of college football, and more upsets swarm the Top 25. A series of upsets and exciting finishes from across college football shapes the Week 5 poll, released Sunday afternoon among AP voters.

The result for Alabama was no surprise with a 22-point victory over Texas A&M. Credit to the Aggies for being the most-competitive team by far against the clear No. 1 team right now in college football.

“Yeah, it was a great game against a great team," said Alabama cornerback Trevon Diggs. "They played hard. We just had to keep battling all four quarters. In the fourth quarter, we had to keep playing. We were letting them get big gains in the first half, but we just kept working, kept pushing, kept fighting during it. We ended up coming out with a win and I’m proud of the way we fought today.”

Teams like Georgia, Washington and Oklahoma got scares on the way to victory. The biggest surprises of the day came in losses by No. 13 Virginia Tech and No. 14 Mississippi State. The Hokies fell in one of the biggest upsets in recent years, 49-35 at Old Dominion. The Bulldogs lost in a 28-7 blowout to undefeated Kentucky.

One of the most compelling games of the weekend was Stanford's improbable rally at Oregon to win in overtime. Stanford's Sean Barton recovered a fumble by Oregon tailback CJ Verdell on the Cardinal 40 with 51 seconds left. It led to a Jet Toner 32-yard field goal as time expired to force overtime.

"This game was pretty awesome. It was one of the coolest games I've been a part of in terms of highs and lows, and really just staying steady throughout the entire night," Stanford quarterback K.J. Costello said.

How the AP Poll works: “The AP Top 25 is determined by a simple points system based on how each voter ranks college football's best teams. A team receives 25 points for each first place vote, 24 for second place and so on through to the 25th team, which receives one point. The rankings are set by listing the teams' point totals from highest to lowest. The mathematical formula is the same as the one used for the AP Pro 32 rankings and the AP Top 25 rankings for men's and women's basketball.”
