The college football season is in full swing, and the latest AP Top 25 Poll has some interesting results. Georgia has been the top-ranked team in the poll for a few weeks now, but their lead over Michigan has been narrowing.
The Bulldogs have been on a roll this season, winning their first six games and looking like a legitimate national championship contender. But they stumbled last week against South Carolina, losing 20-17 in a game that was much closer than many expected. As a result, their lead over the Wolverines has been cut to just two points in the latest poll.
Despite the setback, Georgia is still in a good position to make a run at a national title. They have an experienced quarterback in Jake Fromm, a talented running back in D’Andre Swift, and one of the best defenses in the country. They also have a favorable schedule ahead of them, with games against Florida, Auburn, and Texas A&M still to come.
Michigan, meanwhile, has been on a roll of its own. The Wolverines have won five straight games and have looked dominant in doing so. Led by quarterback Shea Patterson and running back Karan Higdon, they have one of the most explosive offenses in the country. They also have an experienced defense that has been able to shut down opposing teams.
It’s clear that both teams are legitimate contenders for the national championship this season. Georgia will need to rebound from their loss to South Carolina if they want to stay ahead of Michigan in the rankings. But with their talent and experience, they should be able to do just that. It’s going to be an exciting race between these two teams for the rest of the season.
