Georgia rises to No. 2 in CBS Sports college football power rankings, Texas holds top spot
The latest CBS Sports power rankings place Texas at No. 1, while Georgia moves up to No. 2 after a dominant SEC road win, and several teams shift following recent results.
Texas remains the No. 1 team in the latest CBS Sports college football power rankings, but Georgia advanced to No. 2 after a four-touchdown road victory in the SEC and maintaining the nation’s highest scoring average of 59.3 points per game. Ole Miss, Louisville and Kentucky also moved in the rankings following wins over LSU, SMU and Texas A&M respectively. The model that generates the rankings is still adjusting to early-season data, and occasional manual adjustments were made, such as a higher placement for Ole Miss. Six ranked-versus-ranked matchups are slated for Saturday, including Texas at No. 11 Tennessee and Oklahoma at No. 2 Georgia, which could prompt further changes in the top 25.
Upcoming Saturday games: No. 1 Texas at No. 11 Tennessee No. 20 Oklahoma at No. 2 Georgia No. 5 Ole Miss at No. 16 Florida No. 17 Oregon at No. 10 USC No. 18 Iowa at No. 15 Michigan No. 14 Missouri at No. 23 Mississippi State
