College football rankings for week 10 of the 2022 season have been released, which includes little movement among the top eight teams in the AP Poll.
The Tennessee Volunteers, who crushed the No. 19 Kentucky Wildcats 44-6 on Saturday, remained third in the Coaches Poll but moved up one spot and are now tied for second with the Ohio State Buckeyes in the AP Poll. The Buckeyes are coming off of a 44-31 victory at No. 13 Penn State and are also ranked second in the Coaches Poll.
The Georgia Bulldogs remain first in both polls following their 42-20 victory over the Florida Gators in Jacksonville. Georgia received 30 first place votes in the AP Poll, while Ohio State received 15 and Tennessee 18.
Ranked fourth through eighth in both the AP Poll and Coaches Poll are Michigan (4), Clemson (5), Alabama (6), TCU (7), and Oregon (8).
Cincinnati and South Carolina each dropped out of both polls, while Kentucky dropped out of the AP Poll following losses on Saturday.

Regardless of the NCAA’s institutional, foundational, Defects, it’s the System supported, Not reformed, Not recast, Not restarted, with mutually written & agreed on Bylaws by 131 1A Teams.
It’s behavioral Policies & Practices, as currently constituted, allow the Trust Conferences 65 “Franchises” to unofficially bypass the NCAA System because the NCAA has no mutually written & agreed upon Checks & Balances.
I’ve made my Disclaimer for All of you Fans who want to excuse your Trust Five School for ” we operate in the same gray Area, jungle, borderlands, limbo as ThE oHIo STATE U., USC Trojans, TCU horned Frogs, SMU Mustangs, U.Tennessee Volunteers & when bylaw Violations occur it’s not our School’s Coaches, Athletic Dept. Staff, Players & their Families Fault”.
U. Tennessee Volunteers is the latest travesty Program operating unfettered from the Consequences of their former Coaches, Athletic Staff, Players & their Families.
USC & SMU were appropriately penalized for their Bylaw breaking. USC in 2011 through 2013: No Postseason Play for 2 Years, reduction of Scholarships by 30 for 3 Years.
ThE oHIo STATE’s past is Documented, no affecting Consequences delivered to put the Brakes on future college Behavior.
I’m sure I’ve left a School out.
I’m not including PennSTATEU Lions because sexual abuse is it’s own category of college Abuse.
