OTHERS RECEIVING VOTES:

NOTES:

Top-ranked Georgia remained No. 1 for another week, but they struggled to stay there in a come-from-behind victory over South Carolina in Athens. Florida State had to hold-off Boston College on the road. Texas needed a big fourth quarter to beat Wyoming in Austin. And Alabama outlasted USF on the road.

As a result, Texas still moved into the No. 3 slot, replacing Florida State, which fell to No. 4. Alabama dropped two spots to No. 12. Colorado kept its record unbeaten, but needed two overtimes to overcome Colorado State in Boulder.

Thirteen of the 15 poll members which played on Saturday (USC was idle) won, but it wasn't always pretty. The losing poll members were Tennessee( previously No. 11), which lost at Florida, and No. 15 Kansas State, the defending Big 12 Conference champion, which dropped a 30-27 decision to Missouri on a 61-yard field goal on the last play of the game. Both Tennessee and Kansas State dropped out of the poll and were replaced by Oklahoma and Oregon State.

The Pac-12 led all leagues with six teams, followed by the Big Ten and the SEC with three each, the Big 12 with two and the ACC and Independents with one each.

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.

The FWAA works to govern media access and gameday operations while presenting awards and honors, including an annual All-America team.
