2012 NCAA rootball rankings: Florida State and Clemson represent ACC

With Maryland nowhere near the top 25, Florida State and Clemson are the only two ACC schools in the most recent SB Nation BlogPoll.

With last week's No. 1, Alabama, falling to Texas A&M, the Oregon Ducks are the new top team in the SB Nation BlogPoll. Kansas State comes in at No. 2 and Notre Dame is No. 3. The Crimson Tide slipped down to No. 4.

Locally, Maryland, Virginia and Virginia Tech are all 4-6 and did not receive any votes in the BlogPoll. Only two ACC schools appear in the BlogPoll this week, with Florida State coming in at No. 7 and Clemson at No. 11. The Seminoles beat Virginia Tech on Nov. 8 and moved up one spot in the rankings. The Tigers trounced the Terrapins, but still slipped one spot from last week as they were passed by Texas A&M, who rose five spots thanks to their upset over Alabama.

Michigan was the big mover of the week, climbing 10 spots up to No. 24. Louisville slipped the most spots of any team, dropping eight spots down to No. 19.
