Week 6 US LBM Coaches Poll released. Where did Ohio State land after Maryland game?

Each week of the college football season has been an interesting and wild one it seems, but that’s why we love this game. We again saw some unexpected results in Week 6, and it had the voters of the US LBM Coaches poll adjust their rankings once again.

Michigan, Georgia and Ohio State more or less did what was expected, but Texas and Notre Dame experienced a significant hit to their College Football Playoff hopes.
