College Football Landscape Shifts Dramatically: Georgia and Miami Experience Major Fall in Coaches Poll

 

 

Major changes in college football rankings as Georgia and Miami fall in the US LBM Coaches Poll


Despite the confusion in college football this week, there was some clarity. Oregon remains the top team in the US LBM Coaches Poll, and this time they received all the votes.

 

The Ducks, having beaten Maryland at home, secured all 55 first-place votes this week. Following a win against Purdue, Ohio State has climbed back up to No. 2.

The next two positions are held by SEC teams: Texas at No. 3 and Tennessee at No. 4, both moving up two spots. After a strong victory against Washington, Penn State returns to the top five.

Indiana, now 10-0 for the first time in its history, jumps four spots to reach No. 6, marking a record high for the program. They will enjoy their ranking for at least another week as they have a bye before facing Ohio State in a crucial Big Ten matchup. Notre Dame rises to No. 7, and BYU moves up a spot to No. 8 after narrowly defeating Utah.

Alabama has re-entered the top 10, moving up to No. 9 after a decisive win over LSU. Meanwhile, Georgia has dropped eight positions after its loss to Mississippi, landing at No. 10, the lowest they’ve been since December 6, 2020. Interestingly, Georgia still ranks above No. 11 Mississippi by 10 points in the poll despite the loss. Miami (Fla.) also suffered a steep drop, falling eight spots to No. 12 after losing to Georgia Tech.

SMU and Boise State are currently tied at No. 13.

Army, the only undefeated team left in the rankings, rises to No. 17, its top position since YSL News Sports started tracking polls in 1991. South Carolina joins the poll at No. 23, while Louisville returns at No. 24.

 

Pittsburgh and Vanderbilt are the teams that fell out of the rankings this week.
