College football rankings for week 3 of the 2023 season have been released. Georgia remains the top-ranked team, while Texas moved into 4th in the AP Poll and 6th in the Coaches Poll.

The Georgia Bulldogs retained the top spot in both polls after a 45-3 home victory over the Ball State Cardinals.

The Texas Longhorns made a big jump in both polls following their 34-24 victory on the road over the previously third-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide. Texas moved up seven spots in the AP Poll to No. 4 and four spots in the Coaches Poll to No. 6.

After suffering their first loss of the season and first home non-conference loss since 2007, the Crimson Tide dropped seven spots in both the AP and Coaches Polls to No. 10.

The top three teams are the same in both Week 3 polls: Georgia, Michigan, and Florida State. Texas and USC are fourth and fifth, respectively, in the AP Poll, while Ohio State is fourth and USC is fifth in the Coaches Poll.

Wisconsin, Tulane, and Texas A&M dropped out of both polls following losses this weekend.
