The top five remained the same. No. 2 Louisville had a huge week, winning a midweek game against Vanderbilt and sweeping a road series at then-No. 8 Clemson, which slipped five spots to No. 13. No. 3 North Carolina and No. 5 Florida won road series against teams toward the bottom of their conferences, and No. 4 Texas Tech was idle.

Kentucky rebounded from a series loss to Georgia with a 4-0 week, propelling the Wildcats back up three spots to No. 6. TCU and Mississippi State dropped one spot each to No. 7 and No. 8 after losing road series. Long Beach State moved up one to No. 9 after taking two of three at Minnesota. And LSU moved into the top 10 after sweeping Auburn, which tumbled from No. 14 all the way out of the rankings after its losing streak reached seven games.
