The Longhorns received 29 of 55 first-place votes and finish just nine poll points ahead of the Crimson Tide. It is the first No. 1 appearance for Texas in the coaches poll since Oct. 26, 2008.

The latest poll has Ohio State remaining at No. 3, right behind new No. 1 Texas, and newly minted, No. 2 Alabama. The top ten behind those three are Tennessee (4), Georgia (5), Oregon (6), Penn State (7), Miami (8), Missouri (9), and Michigan (10).

Thanks to a (sloppy) win over Mississippi State and Alabama’s upset of Georgia, the Texas Longhorns are now No. 1 in the US LBM Coaches Poll. Texas had trailed Georgia for a few weeks. The Longhorns have spent two weeks as No. 1 in the AP Poll.

Kansas State football solidified its position in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll after a convincing victory over Oklahoma State.

With the expanded 12-team College Football Playoff debuting in 2024, the SEC could send as many as five programs to the dance. The additions of Texas and Oklahoma raise the floor, but Georgia still sits on the throne in the 2024 SEC Power Rankings.
