AP poll: Georgia, Miami tumble with losses, allowing Texas to rise to No. 3

AUSTIN (KXAN) — Texas moved up two spots to No. 3 in the latest Associated Press Top 25 rankings following losses by Miami and Georgia and the Longhorns' resounding 49-17 win over Florida.

Georgia, ranked No. 3 going into Saturday's game, fell 28-10 to Mississippi and tumbled to No. 11. The Hurricanes fell eight spots to No. 12 after a 28-23 loss to unranked Georgia Tech. With the win, Ole Miss landed at No. 10, up six spots.

Oregon was the only top-10 team that didn't move. They remained No. 1 unanimously, collecting all 62 first-place votes. Ohio State moved up one spot to No. 2, Penn State moved to No. 4, and Indiana moved three spots to No. 5. It's the first time the Hoosiers have been in the top five since 1967 when they finished the season No. 4.

Tennessee, BYU, Notre Dame and Alabama round out the top 10. Texas A&M was idle and held its spot at No. 15. The Aggies take on New Mexico State on Nov. 16 before getting back to Southeastern Conference play Nov. 23 against Auburn.

Army remained undefeated with a 14-3 win over North Texas and moved two spots to No. 16. Oregon, Indiana, BYU and the Black Knights are the undefeated teams left at the FBS level. Army will have a big test when they face Notre Dame on Nov. 23.

The College Football Playoff selection committee releases its updated rankings Tuesday. Texas was No. 5 in the initial release Nov. 5 but will probably move up with Georgia and Miami losing.
