After a wild weekend in college football, there’s a new No. 1 in the Associated Press’s Top 25 poll: Georgia.
The Bulldogs were one of the few top programs in the country to escape Week 2 unscathed. For the second weekend in a row, quarterback Stetson Bennett played mistake-free and Georgia cruised to a shutout of Stamford.
However, the result for the new No. 1 in the AP poll was not the norm during a particularly wacky Saturday around the sport. In one of the more thrilling matchups of the weekend, former No. 1 Alabama narrowly held off an upset bid from Texas to win 20–19. Still, the slim margin of victory wasn’t enough for voters to justify keeping the Crimson Tide in the top spot.
