The AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season!

Oben, one of about three dozen seniors recognized prior to the game. “I feel bad for those guys.” The Panthers scored on Yarnell’s 14-yard throw to Bub Means with 5:17 left, then failed on a two-point pass play to leave the score at 27-19. “It’s frustrating whether it’s the beginning of the year or the end of the year.” Duke: The Blue Devils won for just the second time in six games to put a positive spin on a season that began with four consecutive victories.
