South Bend Elkhart, IN, October 25, 2026 —
The latest AP Top 25 college football poll places Indiana at No. 4, up from No. 6, while Notre Dame moves to No. 5 after holding the No. 4 spot. The changes put Indiana one position ahead of Notre Dame in the current rankings.
The information provided identifies the teams’ previous and current positions but does not include the poll’s release date, the number of votes received, or the gap between the teams. It also does not state why either team moved, or provide details about games or other developments associated with the ranking changes.
The poll update therefore establishes a two-place rise for Indiana and a one-place drop for Notre Dame, without specifying the broader movement among the other ranked teams. No additional rankings or results are included in the available information.
The latest positions are the only reported changes: Indiana is No. 4 and Notre Dame is No. 5. The information does not identify how long either team had held its prior position, whether the rankings changed elsewhere in the Top 25, or what the next poll may show.
