Oklahoma moved up to No. 5 in The Associated Press college football poll Sunday, Miami’s late-game gaffe nearly pushed the Hurricanes out of the rankings, and six basketball blue bloods made some history.
No. 1 Georgia, coming off its best game of the season — a rout of previously unbeaten Kentucky to improve to 6-0 overall and 3-0 in the Southeastern Conference — regained some of the first-place votes it lost in the AP Top 25 last weekend, when it needed a late rally to stay unbeaten at Auburn.
The Bulldogs got 50 first-place votes Sunday after receiving a season-low 35 in the previous poll. No. 2 Michigan received 11 first-place votes this week as the Wolverines (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) roll along unbeaten and untested.
No. 3 Ohio State (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) and No. 4 Florida State (5-0, 3-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) each moved up a spot and received one first-place vote apiece.
Oklahoma (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) jumped seven spots after rallying to beat Texas on Saturday, with the Sooners returning to the top 10 for the first time since mid-September 2022, when they started tumbling toward a 6-7 season. The Longhorns (5-1, 2-1) slipped six spots to No. 9 with their loss in the latest Red River Rivalry matchup.
