Miami is back at No. 1, and this time it's unanimous.
The Hurricanes regained the top spot in The Associated Press media poll on Sunday, a week after a 25-point victory over Rutgers saw them drop to No. 2 behind Oklahoma.
With the Sooners losing to Texas A&M 30-26 and Miami overpowering Tennessee 26-3 on Saturday, the Hurricanes (9-0) received all 74 first-place votes and 1,850 points from the sports writers and broadcasters on the AP panel.
Miami was No. 1 for a record 21 straight polls before being unseated by Oklahoma. For the first time this season, though, the Hurricanes made a clean sweep of the votes.
Ohio State (11-0) moved up to No. 2 from No. 3 after its 10-6 win over Purdue.
Washington State (9-1) made a big jump to No. 3 from No. 5 after a 32-21 win over Oregon, while Oklahoma (8-1) and Texas (9-1) were tied at No. 4.
Miami remained No. 1 in the USA Today/ESPN coaches poll, followed by Ohio State, Texas, Washington State, Iowa and Oklahoma.
