Following the fifth week of the college football season, the AP Top 25 poll had some shake-up.

The Rebels join other SEC teams in the Top 25 poll from the league: Alabama (1), Georgia (2), Arkansas (13), Kentucky (16), Auburn (18) and Florida (20).

Ole Miss returns home on Saturday to play host to the No. 13 Arkansas Razorbacks for homecoming. The kickoff is set for 11 a.m. on ESPN.
