The Oklahoma Sooners dropped out of the AP Top 25 despite their win over the New Mexico Lobos on Saturday evening. The win didn't do anything to instill confidence in the Sooners moving forward.
The Sooners were replaced by a future opponent in SEC play, the Mississippi State Bulldogs. Jeff Lebby's squad beat South Carolina, giving the Bulldogs their second Power Four win of the season and helping them get to 1-0 on the year.
Texas is still the No. 1 team in the nation, picking up 58 first-place votes. Georgia follows at No. 2, and Notre Dame, Ole Miss, and Indiana round out the top five.
The SEC makes up half of the top 10 and 10 of the top 25 in this week's AP Poll. With nine games remaining, Oklahoma will play seven teams currently ranked in the AP Top,
with the No. 2 Georgia Bulldogs up next in Athens, Ga.
