There’s been a lot of movement from Week 3 to Week 4 in the official AP Top 25 rankings after the Southeastern Conference’s top teams continue to struggle and/or stumble.

That being said, though, there are once again six SEC teams ranked in the Top 25 as the Florida Gators rose up for the first time this season.

The big storyline is that Tennessee is out of the Top 20 following a loss to Florida and Alabama is out of the Top 10 following a shaky win over South Florida.

The Vols now land at No. 23 in the country while Alabama is sitting back at No. 13.

Speaking of Florida, the Gators are now sitting at No. 25 with their first AP poll selection of the season.

From top to bottom, Georgia still stands as the No. 1 team in the country with no other SEC representative in the Top 10 field.

The next highest team from the SEC is No. 12 LSU followed by No. 13 Alabama. Ole Miss, undefeated on the year, is also up to No. 15 in the polls while Tennessee is at No. 23. Florida caps off the entire Top 25 with a spot at No. 25.
