Miami (Fla.)
The Hurricanes leap to No. 1 with a second win against a top 15 opponent and their largest win against an AP Top 25-ranked team since 2001. Carson Beck (340 yards) led the way in a 576-yard performance, the program’s best production against a ranked team since 1998, in a 49-12 victory against USF. Next up: Billy Napier’s gator bait.

Ohio State
Ohio State won the battle for the state with a 37-9 win against Ohio. Jeremiah Smith had 153 receiving yards and two total touchdowns. The Buckeyes have won 61 games by double digits since 2019. They’re revving up, but with Texas’ issues growing, the season-opening win looks slightly different.

Georgia
Georgia’s defense left a lot of tape for Kirby Smart to chew up and spit out in the film room, but a win is a win, even if Tennessee deserved the victory, as Smart said after the 44-41 overtime win. Quarterback Gunner Stockton likely silenced a lot of critics in his first 300-yard game, completing 8 of 10 passes to tie the game in the final 3 minutes of regulation. The SEC race still goes through Athens.
