It's another Sunday after the college football slate, and that means it's time to look at the latest US LBM Coaches Poll. While Ohio State is still trying to figure out how to move forward without starting quarterback Julian Sayin, the Buckeyes remain ranked No. 2, the same as after Week 7 of the poll.
The Miami Hurricanes remained No. 1 just ahead of Ohio State, with another major shakeup below those two because of some more losses inside the top ten. The Georgia Bulldogs moved up a spot to No. 3, followed by Indiana (4), Utah (5), Notre Dame (6), UCLA (7), Kentucky (8), BYU (9), and Alabama (10), rounding out the top ten.
Other Big Ten teams in the poll outside of the top ten include Northwestern (18), Iowa (24), and USC (25). Oregon dropped
out after the loss to Illinois.
