The Cowboys are back in the AP Top 25 this week after handing No. 10 West Virginia its first loss of the season Saturday with a solid win of 37-20 over the Mountaineers. 

OSU has made its way into the rankings at No. 22, and West Virginia slipped to No. 14. This is OSU's first time back in the Top 25 after the controversial loss in September that led to the Cowboys falling out of the Top 25. 

The Sooners moved up four spots to No. 12 after they defeated the unranked Jayhawks Saturday in Norman 56-3. 

Saturday's college football action made the undefeated club a little more exclusive. With Baylor, West Virginia, Nebraska and Boise State all tasting defeat for the first time, there are now just five teams with a perfect record heading into November.

Alabama, Michigan, Clemson and Washington have risen to the top of the polls thanks to undefeated starts, but after that, the rankings are much more fluid.

Teams like No. 7 Texas A&M and No. 10 Florida are joining No. 5 Louisville at the top of the one-loss group that welcomes those Bears, Mountaineers and Cornhuskers after the weekend shakeup.

Meanwhile, two-loss teams like Wisconsin, Oklahoma, Auburn and LSU continue to win and hope for some help in conference title races in order to help their playoff chances.

Here's the full AP Top 25, released on Sunday:
Alabama
Michigan
Clemson
Washington
Louisville
Ohio State
Texas A&M
Wisconsin
Nebraska
Florida
Auburn
Oklahoma
Baylor
West Virginia
LSU
Utah
Western Michigan
North Carolina
Florida State
Penn State
Colorado
Oklahoma State
Virginia Tech
Boise State
Washington State
