2024-09-16 17:15:04

There’s a new No. 1 in the latest AP Poll rankings. Let’s look at some of the notable moves in Week 4’s AP Poll.

Texas is the new No. 1

Texas is the No. 1 team in the AP Poll for the first time since October 2008. T.I. and Brittney Spears were topping the charts the last time Texas was ranked the best in college football. In 2024, the Longhorns are living their life like the Atlanta rapper in 2008, off to an undefeated start at 3-0, with a top-10 road win coming two weeks ago. 

Texas moves past Georgia, who only beat an unranked Kentucky team by one point on the road. Meanwhile, the Texas offense is doing whatever it likes to opponents — just like T.I. ‘s No. 1 song in 2008 — no matter if Quinn Ewers or Arch Manning is getting snaps at quarterback.

WEEK 3 RECAP: No. 1 Georgia survives Kentucky, No. 16 LSU wins thriller, Memphis stuns FSU and more

Utah, Kansas State and Oklahoma State pace the Big 12

There’s a jumble of Big 12 teams just below the top 10 of the AP Poll. Kansas State moved up to No. 13 after defeating then-No. 20 Arizona. Oklahoma State fell behind the Wildcats at No. 14, while No. 12 Utah held steady

We’ll see Utah visit Oklahoma State this week to clarify the Big 12 picture, and Kansas State will host the Cowboys the following week. The race for the Big 12 title will get very exciting very soon.

Illinois and Texas A&M are the new entrants for the week

Only two top-25 teams lost in Week 3, with Arizona and Boston College losing to ranked opponents. Those two teams fell out of the rankings, and No. 24 Illinois and No. 25 Texas A&M replaced them.

Illinois is 3-0 with a ranked win under its belt. The Fighting Illini beat a ranked Kansas team two weeks ago and most recently took down Central Michigan to stay undefeated.

Texas A&M dominated Florida with its backup quarterback, leading the Aggies back to the rankings after opening the preseason at No. 20 and then being unranked for two weeks.
