NOTES:
The top seven teams in the poll remained the same with No. 1 Georgia leading the way with a 37-20 victory over surprisingly stubborn Vanderbilt in Nashville.

Michigan stayed No. 2, Florida State and Ohio State exchanged places from a week ago after following suit with victories. And now No. 5 Washington won a pulsating three-point affair at home against previously unbeaten Oregon. No. 7 Penn State stay in place with a rout of UMass.

The.other major development was Notre Dame's impressive home victory over USC, which vaulted the Fighting Irish back into the ratings at No. 14. The previously unbeaten Trojans dropped out of the poll from the No. 10 spot last week. Duke and Utah both re-entered the poll.

With Oklahoma, Texas and Ole Miss all idle on Saturday, the only other team in the poll to lose was Louisville, upset at Pittsburgh. The Cardinals fell out of the poll.

The Pac-12 had four teams in the poll, the Big Ten, ACC and SEC three each. The Big 12 had two, and Independents had one.

ABOUT THE FWAA-NFF SUPER 16 POLL: The FWAA-NFF Super 16 Poll was established at the conclusion of the 2013 season by long-time partners, the Football Writers Association of America (FWAA) and the National Football Foundation (NFF). Voters rank the top 16 teams in the NCAA Football Bowl Subdivision, and the results will be released every Sunday of the 2023 season; the individual votes of all members will also be made public. The first regular season poll will be released on Tuesday, Sept. 5 (to account for Labor Day games), and the final poll will be released Sunday, Dec. 3. The pollsters consist of FWAA writers and College Football Hall of Famers who were selected to create a balanced-geographical perspective. The poll utilizes a computer program designed by Sports Systems to compile the rankings and the Cody Kellner Points Index to publish the individual votes.
