The Georgia Bulldogs entered Saturday’s game ranked No. 2 in the nation. After a big win, Ole Miss the Bulldogs have finally jumped to the top spot in the nation. Georgia jumped the Ohio State Buckeyes for the first time in these College Football Rankings. The rest of the top eight remains the same.
The Bulldogs have now added two record wins to their resume. The wins against Missouri and Ole Miss look great. Missouri moved up to No. 9 in the current rankings after a big win against Tennessee. Ole Miss dropped to No. 13 after the Georgia loss. The Bulldogs’ next opponent, Tennessee, fell to No. 18.
Alabama is still No. 8 in the rankings and will be the last domino standing in Georgia’s way to the playoffs. The game against the Crimson Tide will be crucial in Atlanta on December 2nd in the SEC tournament.
Social media is reacting to Georgia’s return to the No. 1 spot:

Georgia’s win over Missouri looks better every day
Missouri’s most significant move from No. 14 to No. 9. If Tigers beat Florida and Arkansas, Mizzou is guaranteed a New Year’s 6 bowl – Fiesta, Peach or Cotton

The Bulldogs won 30-21 over the Tigers two weeks ago. That victory looks more impressive every week as the Tigers climb up the rankings. The Tigers are sitting at No. 3 in our SEC power rankings.
