The 2025 college football season is right around the corner, which means preseason rankings are going to start rolling in, and one of them has already been released as the preseason coaches' poll has been revealed.

The Georgia Bulldogs come in at No. 4 on the list, behind the likes of Texas, Ohio State and Penn State.

While Georgia is coming into this season with one of the nation's most talented rosters, many analysts have taken a step back on their expectations for Georgia. Whether it's the losses at offensive line, Gunner Stockton being the starting quarterback, or the losses on defense, there have been multiple reasons for why the Dawgs aren't seen as a favorite heading into this season.

Even with those questions, it doesn't seem like there is a lack of confidence for the Bulldogs this season, at least from the people involved in the sport.

With that said, Georgia is coming off a season in which they won the SEC and made the college football playoffs. In a season in which they led the nation in drops and didn't look like the typical Georgia at times.

The Bulldogs also get a bit of a break in their schedule this season. They don't open with Clemson like they did last season, and the games against Alabama, Texas and Ole Miss will all be played at home this season, while last year they were all played on the road.
