NEW YORK (AP) --- Georgia jumps to No. 1 in the AP Top 25, Texas drops to No. 7
and Oregon is unranked for the first time in 4 years.
THIS IS AN APNewsAlert. Check back for updates. AP's earlier story is below.
There will be a new No. 1 team when The Associated Press Top 25 college
football poll is released Sunday.
Texas' four-week run atop the rankings is set to end after its 27-24 loss to
unranked Oklahoma and No. 2 Georgia is first in line to replace the Longhorns
as the top 10 in particular faces a shuffling after three teams lost.
Georgia, which had the second-most first-place votes last week, knocked off No.
6 Alabama 20-17 on the road. The Bulldogs haven't been No. 1 since the first
three polls in the 2024 season.
Kentucky's 35-34 overtime win over No. 10 LSU likely will push the Tigers out
of the top 10 and return the Wildcats to Top 25 after they dropped out
following a win over South Carolina last week.
No. 21 UCLA, 5-0 for the first time since 2022, is poised to move up and No. 13
Oregon is set to move down after the Bruins' 17-15 road win over the Ducks, who
now have two losses.
No. 16 Florida, which was No. 8 two weeks ago, could get bounced from the Top
25 altogether. The Gators lost their second straight game, 38-19 at home to a
South Carolina team that had lost eight straight Southeastern Conference games.
No. 25 Pittsburgh's appearance in the poll likely will last just one week.
North Carolina went on the road and beat the Panthers 21-17 for second-year
coach Bill Belichick's first win over a ranked opponent.
In addition to Kentucky, idle Wisconsin and Northwestern, a 45-14 winner over
Ball State, are candidates to enter the Top 25.
