Georgia back to No. 1 as Ohio State craters out of top 20

The Bulldogs retook the top spot in the AP Top 25 after blowing out Ole Miss while Miami lost at Notre Dame, and Ohio State fell to No. 21 following a home loss to Oregon.

Georgia is the new No. 1 team in the country. The Bulldogs moved up after previously top-ranked Miami lost on the road at Notre Dame on Saturday night, and Georgia made the decision easy by handling Ole Miss.

Miami dropped to No. 5, now sitting behind Georgia, Utah, Notre Dame and UCLA. Utah climbed to No. 2 after beating BYU, and UCLA won on the road at Minnesota. Those two are the only remaining unbeaten teams at the top level of the sport. Indiana, Alabama, Texas, Tennessee and Texas Tech round out the rest of the top ten. Alabama won at LSU, and Tennessee throttled a Kentucky team that had not lost since Week 2.

The bigger collapse belongs to Ohio State, which fell all the way to No. 21 after losing at home to Oregon. The Buckeyes gave up a big number of points in that loss, tumbling out of the top 20 entirely.

Georgia's return to the top spot marks the second time this season the Bulldogs have held the No. 1 ranking.
