The Saints and Rangers make up the rest of the top five in the four and five spots, respectively.

Tiffin made the largest jump in this edition of the poll, moving into the #11 spot after previously holding the #23 ranking. Western State, coming in at #22 in this ranking, made the only jump into the Top 25, while Seton Hill fell from #T16 to the receiving points listing.
