AP Top 25 poised for new No. 1 after Oklahoma upsets Texas
Georgia is poised to take over the top spot in the AP Top 25 following a 20-17 victory over No. 6 Alabama. This win marks Georgia's first time at No. 1 since 2024. However, the Bulldogs are not the only team on the move. A series of surprising upsets has shaken up the rankings.
In the Red River Rivalry, Oklahoma upset Texas, claiming the No. 1 spot in the poll. Meanwhile, UCLA pulled off a road upset against Oregon, South Carolina routed Florida, and Kentucky delivered another overtime thriller against LSU. These unexpected results have left many teams scrambling for higher rankings.
Georgia's rise to the top is particularly notable given the challenging nature of their win over Alabama. The Longhorns were defeated by Oklahoma in the Red River Rivalry, leaving the No. 1 spot up for grabs. The Ducks, previously undefeated, fell to UCLA due to turnovers and key injuries.
As the latest rankings are released, expect to see updates on voter projections, live updates, and a Q&A session focusing on the changes in the poll.
