The AP Top 25 is poised to shake up again after another eventful week of college football.Five teams in the poll — including No. 2 BYU and No. 8 Texas Tech — got knocked off by unranked opponents on Saturday. The top 10 also saw No. 7 Mississippi lose to No. 19 Texas, keeping the Longhorns’ College Football Playoff hopes alive.Miami, meanwhile, had no problem passing its first test as No. 1. The Hurricanes routed Pittsburgh 52-23 in their first game atop the poll since 2002.No. 2 BYU wasn’t as fortunate. The Cougars’ double overtime loss at UCF should clear the way for No. 3 Ohio State, No. 4 Notre Dame and No. 5 Georgia — all idle — each to move up a spot.Then it could get tricky, depending on how far BYU drops after its first loss, which came on the road a week after it knocked off then-No. 2 Notre Dame.Stick around for more projections and live updates when the latest rankings drop at 2 p.m. EDT.Another chaotic week in the Top 25By MARK LONGWeek 8 of the college football season was
