Seattle Sports

The University of Georgia Bulldogs have held the No. 1 ranking in the AP Top 25 Poll for 19 consecutive weeks, a feat that has not been accomplished since the University of Alabama Crimson Tide in 1979. The Bulldogs have been the top-ranked team since the start of the season, and they have held on to that position despite some tough competition.

The Bulldogs have been led by their star quarterback, Jake Fromm, who has thrown for over 3,000 yards and 25 touchdowns this season. Fromm has also been a leader off the field, helping to keep the team focused and motivated. He has been a major reason why the Bulldogs have been able to stay atop the rankings for so long.

The Bulldogs have also been bolstered by their defense, which has been one of the best in the nation. The defense has allowed just 16.7 points per game, which is good for third in the nation. They have also been able to force turnovers, with 15 interceptions and 11 fumble recoveries this season.

The Bulldogs have also had some big wins this season, including a win over then-No. 3 Notre Dame in September and a win over then-No. 4 LSU in October. These wins have helped to solidify their position at the top of the rankings.

Meanwhile, Washington State has stayed at No. 5 in the rankings for the past two weeks. The Cougars have had a solid season, with an 8-3 record and a win over then-No. 8 Oregon in October. They have also had some big wins over ranked opponents, including a win over then-No. 24 Stanford in September and a win over then-No. 16 Utah in November.

The Cougars have also been led by their star quarterback, Gardner Minshew II, who has thrown for over 4,000 yards and 36 touchdowns this season. Minshew has been a major reason why the Cougars have been able to stay in the top five for so long.

Overall, it has been an impressive season for both Georgia and Washington State. The Bulldogs have held on to the No. 1 ranking for 19 consecutive weeks, while the Cougars have stayed at No. 5 for two weeks in a row. Both teams have had impressive seasons and look to continue their success into the postseason.
