Georgia grabbed the top spot in the first College Football Playoff rankings but it was Cincinnati and Oregon who stole the headlines.
It was the 31st appearance by the Bulldogs (8-0) and the third time they’ve been No. 1 in the rankings but the first since Nov. 7, 2017.
Much of the focus on the first rankings centered around where the committee would place undefeated Cincinnati (8-0). The Bearcats are looking to become the first Group of 5 program to make the playoff but they face a perceived uphill climb with the committee ranking them at No. 6.
