USC moved into the top five of the AP college football poll for the first time in five years.

Georgia received 62 of the 63 first-place votes in the AP Top 25 as the top four teams held their places after close games on Saturday.

The other first place vote went to Ohio State. Michigan and TCU were the second and third ranked.

The USC moved up two places after defeating UCLA. The last time USC was ranked in the top five was in September of last year, when it was ranked fourth but finished 12th.

Lincoln Riley's first season as USC coach has produced one of the best turnarounds in the country, with the USC going from four wins to 10 and a conference title game still to be played.

I would have called you a liar if you had told me at the end of last season that I would be with this group of guys. Kyle Ford said after the UCLA game that he was just being completely honest. I'm so grateful for everyone on this team.

LSU remained in the top half of the rankings. There was a two-spot increase in the number of teams in the top seven. Tennessee dropped from ninth to ninth after getting upset in a game.

The Gamecocks scored more points against a top five team than any other team in the history of the AP poll.

The top 10 was completed by Oregon after they beat Utah in the marquee game of the weekend.

There are poll points.

This is the 10th time this season that Georgia has been at the top of the rankings. The school had nine No. 1s last year.

Georgia and Michigan have both been at the top of the AP poll a total of 34 times.

USC is a top five team for the 283rd time. Nebraska is 13 behind that.

Alabama, Oklahoma, Ohio State, Notre Dame and Michigan made up the top five.

In.

It's Texas again.

The Longhorns have moved into the top 25 four times this season. They haven't been there for more than a week.

The Longhorns returned to the rankings after a win against Kansas, and will play their final game of the season against the Bears.

Out.

Oklahoma State dropped to 7-4 and out of the rankings after a loss to Oklahoma.

There is a conference call.
