Coaches show respect to Georgia football in final US LBM Coaches Poll

The final US LBM Coaches Poll of the 2023 college football season has been released and one thing is clear: the coaches have a lot of respect for the Georgia Bulldogs.

The Michigan Wolverines toppled the Washington Huskies in the national championship game to win their first title since 1997. However, the last edition of the four-team College Football Playoff was the most controversial. Florida State became the first undefeated Power Five team to be left out of the playoff. Additionally, Georgia, who was ranked No. 1 for most of the season, fell outside of the top four after a close loss to Alabama in the SEC championship. You can’t have college football without controversy.

Who are the top 10 teams in US LBM Coaches Poll? Where is Georgia ranked after finishing a 13-1 season with a dominant win over Florida State?
