Missouri up to No. 15 in AP Poll after beating Auburn
The Missouri Tigers were rewarded on Sunday after their 23-17 double overtime defeat of the Auburn Tigers. In the latest AP Top 25, Missouri was bumped up one spot from No. 16 to No. 15.

The Tulane Green Wave sees their polling improve in this week's Top-25 Polls. For the first time this season, the Tulane Green Wave has received votes from the media voting in the AP Top-25 poll. Though not enough to get in to the 25th slot, the Wave garnered 37 this week.
Ole Miss blew out Tulane and beat LSU, while Louisville's best result besides this week's win was a comeback victory over a flawed but improving Pittsburgh team. The Cardinals also have the weaker loss. Falling to Virginia at home is not the same as losing to Georgia on the road, even if the Virginia defeat was in overtime.
