US LBM Coaches poll released after Week 3: Georgia remains No. 1

The Georgia Bulldogs remain No. 1 in the US LBM Coaches Poll after earning a narrow 24-14 win over the South Carolina Gamecocks.

Georgia faced some real adversity in its first SEC game of the season. Georgia trailed 14-3 at halftime against South Carolina before outscoring the Gamecocks 21-0 in the second half.

Week 3 featured close contests for many top college football teams. Florida State narrowly won on the road at Boston College. Texas and Alabama both struggled to gain separation for non-Power Five opponents.

Tennessee and Kansas State both lost to unranked opponents in Week 3. The Volunteers lost on the road against Florida and Kansas State lost at Missouri thanks to a last second field goal.

Let’s take a look at the full US LBM Coaches Poll after Week 3:
