The Georgia Bulldogs remain the No. 2 team in the US LBM Coaches Poll. Georgia had a bye in Week 9 a week after their impressive 30-15 road win over the Texas Longhorns. Georgia is only receiving one first place vote, which is down from last week.

The No. 1 Oregon Ducks are ranked ahead of Georgia. The undefeated Ducks received 52 of 53 total first place votes after picking up a dominant win over Illinois. Following Georgia is the No. 3 Penn State Nittany Lions and No. 4 Ohio State Buckeyes. No. 5 Miami rounds out the top five.

Texas remains No. 6 after their 27-24 win over Vanderbilt. Tennessee is ranked No. 7 and is Georgia’s highest ranked remaining opponent.

Georgia is the only team in the country with a pair wins over teams currently ranked in the top 10. The Bulldogs have wins over No. 6 Texas and No. 8 Clemson. UGA’s lone loss of the season came to No. 14 Alabama, who is coming off an impressive win over Missouri.

However, the No. 11 Texas A&M Aggies are the only remaining undefeated team in SEC conference play after their comeback win over LSU.
