Texas is No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 college football poll for the first time in 16 years, replacing Georgia.
Texas is No. 1 in The Associated Press Top 25 college football poll for the first time in 16 years, replacing Georgia on Sunday after the Bulldogs struggled to remain unbeaten. The Longhorns moved up a spot from No. 2 and received 35 first-place votes and 1,540 points. The Bulldogs, who have been No. 1 since the preseason poll, received 23 first-place votes and 1,518 points. Ohio State received five first-place votes and stayed at No. 3 during an off week. No. 4 Alabama and No.
The Bulldogs needed a second-half rally to squeak by 13-12 at Kentucky — the same Kentucky team that was buried at home a week earlier by South Carolina. That was the fewest points scored by a No. 1 team in a victory since Alabama beat LSU, 10-0, in 2016. 'I don’t know much about this team, but I found out more tonight than I’ve known to this point,' coach Kirby Smart told reporters after the game. Georgia has dominated the top spot in the AP poll since 2021, with 39 appearances.
