Georgia remains No. 1 in the week five coaches poll
The newest USA Today/US LBM coaches poll is out and Georgia, just like the previous four weeks, is in the top spot. The Bulldogs, who got 61 of 66 first-place votes, are followed by Michigan at No. 2, Ohio State at No. 3, Florida State at No. 4 and Texas at No. 5.
USC, Penn State, Washington, Oregon, and Utah, in that order, round out the top 10. Alabama and LSU come in at No. 11 and No. 12, respectively. Other SEC teams in the top 25 include Tennessee at No. 19, Ole Miss at No. 20, and Florida at No. 23.
Georgia moves to 4-0 with win over UAB
The Bulldogs are winners of 21 straight games going back to the 2022 College Football Playoff. They have also won 22 straight games at home after taking down UAB on Saturday by a score of 49-21.
“I’m going to give a lot of credit to the fans,” Kirby Smart said after the game. “I thought fourth home game in a row, great environment. I wondered what the turnout would be, but the weather helped. It was rather electric down there on the field, especially at the start of the second half. I thought the atmosphere was really, really good for that.

“Proud of the hunger the team showed. I thought we were really aggressive and played faster, especially on offense. Just looked to be in rhythm a lot better. Proud of those guys, six for six in the red area, did a lot of things better. Could have played better on defense. I give UAB a lot of credit. They did a good job. The offensive coordinator and offensive line coach are good friends of mine. They’re really good football coaches and had a good plan there. The score before the half probably hurt us the most.”
“I really was just proud of the way our guys played. Thought we got better this week. That’s the goal. Our hunger. Our theme for the week was ‘Be hungry, and hungry to get better.’ Not just hungry to go beat somebody, but hungry to get better. I did think the players tried to get better this week.”
