Texas might be sitting pretty at No. 1 right now, getting a well-deserved Saturday off before their massive Red River Rivalry showdown against Oklahoma on October 10, but don’t get too comfortable, folks. The AP Top 10 is about to get completely rocked.
Gators Get Gassed, Top 10 Gets Shaken
The reason for the coming chaos? Well, for starters, Florida just got absolutely clobbered by Missouri, a week after they looked like world-beaters romping all over Ole Miss. That’s a huge drop for a team that had just surged up the rankings! It really shows you the problem with the SEC once conference play kicks off. Those teams just keep playing each other week after week, and someone’s gotta take an L. It’s brutal.
The SEC Gauntlet: Bama vs. Georgia is Here
Next week is a prime example of that brutal SEC schedule. We’ve got two undefeated titans, Alabama and Georgia, squaring off. I mean, seriously, how epic would it have been to get a 2-3 matchup with the Tide at #3? But no, they’re only at #6 right now, even without a loss. That’s wild. It just goes to show how many killer teams are packed into the top. Here’s the projected AP Top 10 heading into Week 6:
* 1. Texas
* 2. Georgia
* 3. Miami
* 4. Ohio State
* 5. Notre Dame
* 6. Alabama
* 7. Indiana
* 8. Ole Miss
* 9. BYU
* 10. Texas Tech
So yeah, get ready. That Alabama-Georgia game next week is gonna be a straight-up problem for one of those undefeated squads. We’re talking huge consequences for the top of the rankings. You gotta tune in, this is what college football is all about.
