Texas football moves to No. 1 in AP Top 25, Georgia down to No. 2
The vast majority of AP High 25 voters now consider the perfect group within the nation for the time being resides in Austin.
Coming off a convincing 56-7 win Saturday night over UTSA, the Longhorns moved to No. 1 within the AP High 25, simply 22 factors forward of earlier No. 1 Georgia. The second-ranked Bulldogs needed to survive an upset bid by Kentucky Saturday night time, in the end escaping Lexington with a 13-12 win.
Texas acquired 63 first-place votes, Georgia had 25, and Ohio State, which was idle this weekend, bought the opposite 5.
That is the primary time the Longhorns have reached No. 1 within the AP Ballot since Oct. 26, 2008. That Mack Brown-coached group completed 12-1, together with a win over Ohio State within the Fiesta Bowl. It marks the forty fifth time the Longhorns have been the AP No. 1 relationship again to 1940.
Texas and Ohio State flipping spots retains a possible AP No. 1 vs. No. 2 sport intact for Oct. 19 at DKR-Memorial Stadium.
The Longhorns’ win over the Roadrunners was not with out its points.
Redshirt junior quarterback Quinn Ewers exited the sport early within the second quarter with what head coach Steve Sarkisian later stated was a strained stomach. Arch Manning got here on rather than Ewers, and proceeded to go 9-for-12 for 223 yards and 4 touchdowns, whereas tacking on a 67-yard dashing landing on his third snap.
There isn’t a timetable on Ewers, however postgame, Sarkisian didn’t sound optimistic about his availability for Saturday night time vs. Louisiana-Monroe again at DKR. If Ewers is out, Manning, a highly-touted redshirt freshman and one of many highest-rated recruits ever, would begin for the primary time in his profession.
The SEC continued to dominate the AP Ballot, placing 9 groups on this week. Apart from Texas and Georgia, No. 4 Alabama, No. 5 Ole Miss, No. 6 Tennessee, No. 7 Missouri, No. 15 Oklahoma, No. 16 LSU, and No. 25 Texas A&M all hit the board.
