NEW YORK — There will be a new No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll after Texas’ four-week run at the top ended with a 27-24 loss to unranked Oklahoma, according to The Associated Press.
No. 2 Georgia is first in line after knocking off No. 6 Alabama 20-17 in Tuscaloosa. The Bulldogs have not been No. 1 since the first three polls of the 2024 season.
Kentucky’s 35-34 overtime win over No. 10 LSU will likely push the Tigers out of the top 10, and No. 21 UCLA, 5-0 for the first time since 2022, won 17-15 at No. 13 Oregon.
No. 16 Florida could fall out of the rankings after a 38-19 home loss to South Carolina. North Carolina beat No. 25 Pittsburgh 21-17 for coach Bill Belichick’s first win over a ranked opponent.
Kentucky, Wisconsin and Northwestern are candidates to enter the Top 25, the AP reported.
