The week 10 AGS Top 25 saw quite the shakeup, especially near the top, as several teams picked up impressive wins over ranked opponents. Despite the fact that each of the top 6 teams from last week won their placement amongst each other was shuffled considerably. Eastern Washington stayed at #1 but that was it for continuity from last week as North Dakota State and Jacksonville State switched spots to come in at #2 and #3, respectively, and James Madison and The Citadel came in tied at #4, representing a 2 spot rise for JMU and a 1 spot rise for The Citadel. Despite winning yet again to get to 9-0 Sam Houston State fell out of the top 5 dropping 2 spots to #6.
After the top 5 there were some teams taking advantage of losses from others within the top 15 to make some sizable jumps. Central Arkansas, South Dakota State, North Dakota, Villanova, and Samford (despite their OT loss to The Citadel) all moved up multiple spots within the top 15. Wofford clawed back into the top 25 coming in at #22, a 5 spot rise from last week. Liberty also rose 5 spots to make their 2016 debut in the AGS Top 25 coming in at #25.
Charleston Southern had the biggest fall of the week as they dropped 9 spots to #18 following their head scratching loss to Gardner-Webb. Western Illinois also fell 5 spots to #21 after dropping their game to red hot Illinois State. Maine and Stony Brook fell out of the top 25 after sustaining losses over the weekend.
The Big Sky, CAA, MVFC, and SOCON all put 4 teams into the top 25 to lead the way. The Big South and the Southland followed with 2 teams each.
