Georgia Tops College Football Rankings After Week 6
The Bulldogs moved to No. 1 in The Post's weekly rankings, with Ohio State and Notre Dame rounding out the top three.
Following Week 6 of the college football season, The Post has ranked the Georgia Bulldogs as the No. 1 team in its weekly poll. Georgia secured the top spot after a victory over Alabama.
The team's remaining regular season challenges include matchups against Ole Miss and Missouri in November.
Ohio State, ranked No. 2, has shown strong performance since its loss to Texas, winning four consecutive games by an average of 44.25 points. The Buckeyes are set to face defending national champion Indiana, seeking to avenge a loss from the previous year's Big Ten championship game.
Notre Dame, at No. 3, is preparing for its first significant opponent of the season against BYU. While BYU may be without star running back LJ Martin, the undefeated Cougars are expected to provide a challenge.
Georgia's undefeated record stands at 6-0, with their most recent win being a hard-fought game against Alabama. The path to the College Football Playoff for Georgia appears challenging but achievable, with key games against ranked opponents still on the horizon. The team's ability to perform under pressure, as demonstrated in their win against Alabama, has positioned them as the team to beat.
Ohio State's resume includes a significant win over Maryland earlier in the season. The Buckeyes' offense has been potent, and their defense has held opponents to a low scoring average. The upcoming game against Indiana carries significant weight for the Big Ten conference title race and national playoff implications.
Notre Dame's schedule has included a series of less competitive opponents, leading up to their matchup with BYU. The game against the Cougars will be a critical test of the Irish's mettle and their potential as a playoff contender.
