Ohio State moves up as top five gets shuffled in latest US LBM Coaches Poll

​​​​​​​View Date:2024-12-23 23:03:45

A busy college football Saturday produced no major upsets. But there was significant shuffling near the top of the US LBM Coaches Poll nonetheless as the voters assessed the most recent results.

Georgia remains No. 1, claiming 61 of 64 first-place votes after handling a non-conference date with Alabama-Birmingham. Michigan holds at No. 2 after dispatching previously unbeaten Rutgers in its Big Ten opener.

The changes kick in at No. 3, as Ohio State slips ahead of Florida State. The Buckeyes received a pair of No. 1 votes on the heels of their last-second triumph at Notre Dame. The Seminoles, despite winning on the road at Clemson, drop back to No. 4. Texas, an easy winner against Baylor, moves into the top five for the first time this season. The Longhorns ahead of No. 6 Southern California after the Trojans let Arizona State hang around before closing out a late-night 42-28 victory.
