Georgia jumps to No. 2 in AP poll following win vs. Clemson

The Associated Press top 25 was released on Tuesday, and while there's no surprise Alabama is the top pick, Georgia is the program grabbing headlines. The Bulldogs jumped up to the No. 2 spot.

The Bulldogs are coming off of a 10-3 win over the Clemson Tigers to begin their season in what some think was the biggest game of opening weekend. According to ESPN, Georgia received four first-place votes.

Clemson toppled down the list to No. 6, leaving the top four for the first time since 2017 prior to the Trevor Lawrence era.

Alabama solidified its spot at the top of the food chain after defeating Miami 44-13 last weekend and receiving 59 first-place votes, "up from the 47 it had in the preseason poll," per ESPN.

Ohio State moved up to No. 3 following a come-from-behind win over Minnesota last week, while Oklahoma fell to No. 4. Texas A&M rounds out the top five, giving the SEC three top-five teams to start off the season.
