The USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll is out after Week 6, and it is more or less status quo at the top despite what we’ve all seen happen over the last few weeks. Ohio State continues to dazzle while Alabama continues to escape defeat. Georgia bounced back against one of the also-rans for the SEC that Penn State handled about the same.
Regardless the Buckeyes remain at No. 3 with Alabama (1), and Georgia (2) still ahead of the scarlet and gray. The rest of the top ten is the same as last week without an upset to speak of, but there was movement in the rest of the poll.
Here’s a look at the top ten of the Coaches Poll, but if you’d like to check out the entire thing, take head on over to USA TODAY to examine the whole thing.
The voters (coaches and or mainly their minions) have been historically stubborn and status quo with voting, and we have a hunch the AP voters may make a move at the top.
We’ll see. For now though, here’s the top ten of the Coaches Poll.
