Georgia extended its streak of No. 1 rankings in The Associated Press college football poll to 19 straight weeks, the third best in the history of the rankings
, and Alabama moved back into the top 10 on Sunday. The Bulldogs received 38 of 63 first-place votes, their second-lowest total of the season, after an off week but still bested No. 2 Michigan, 1,536 points to 1,504. Georgia's No. 1 streak, which started on Oct. 9, 2022, is behind only Miami's streak of 21 weeks from 2001-02 and Southern California's 33 in a row from 2003-05.
While Washington,Oklahoma and Texas all survived scares against unranked foes, North Carolina was not so fortunate. The Tar Heels lost to Virginia, the Cavaliers' first win of the season against an FBS team, to become just the second top-10 team to lose to an unranked team this season. The other was then-No. 9 Clemson in Week 1 at Duke. North Carolina dropped seven spots to No. 17. The number of major upsets to Top 25 teams overall in college football this season remains minimal.
James Madison gives the Sun Belt a ranked team for the first time this season and also three non-Power Five conference teams in the poll, joining No. 19 Air Force of the Mountain West and No. 22 Tulane of the American Athletic Conference. Air Force has its highest rankings since being No. 18 on Oct. 13, 2002. SEC — 6 . Pac-12 — 6 . ACC — 4 . Big Ten — 3 . Big 12 — 2 . Mountain West — 1 . American — 1 . Sun Belt — 1 . Independent — 1 .
