Texas Longhorns jump to No. 1 in AP Top 25 after Ohio State comeback
Texas football has climbed to No. 1 in the newest AP Top 25 ranking. The Longhorns are now No. 1 in both polls.
For the first time in the nation's ranking, the Texas Longhorns have ascended to the top spot in the AP Top 25 after their historic comeback win over Ohio State. The Buckeyes, however, plummeted to No. 6 following their defeat, having relinquished a 20-point lead during the game. Texas has also secured the No. 1 ranking in the USLB Coaches Poll, jumping three places in the polls, overtaking No. 2 Georgia and No. 3 Notre Dame.
Indiana and Miami currently hold the fourth and fifth positions respectively. Following Ohio State's No. 6 ranking, the remainder of the top ten is dominated by teams from the Southeastern Conference, including LSU, Ole Miss, Texas A&M, and Alabama in seventh through tenth places. The Oregon Ducks, who began the season at No. 2, have suffered a significant drop, falling 15 spots to No. 21.
Oklahoma State's loss at Michigan has also impacted their ranking, causing them to fall 13 places to No. 24. An interesting observation is that there are currently nine teams from the Southeastern Conference ranked in the Top 25, while the Big Ten, Big 12, and ACC each have four teams in the same ranking.
