For the third week in a row, Penn State picked up a big win, and for the third week in a row, that win has kept them at No. 4 in the AP poll.

The Nittany Lions (5-0) crushed Indiana, 45-14, Saturday at home to stay undefeated behind a huge game from Saquon Barkley. The Heisman candidate rushed for 56 yards, caught four passes for 51 yards, returned a kick 98 yards for a touchdown and even threw a 16-yard pass for a touchdown.

Alabama (5-0), Clemson (5-0), and Oklahoma (4-0) also won their games to stay at 1, 2, and 3 in the AP poll, respectively, to round out the top 4. USC (4-1) lost to then-No. 16 Washington State and dropped from No. 5 to No. 14.

Georgia hopped No. 6 Washington and replaced USC at No. 5 after a 41-0 win against Tennessee. Michigan, TCU, Wisconsin and Ohio State round out this week's Top 10 at No. 7, No. 8, No. 9 and No. 10, respectively. 

Penn State will look to stay unbeaten at Northwestern next Saturday afternoon.
