The College Football Playoff committee released its second set of rankings on Tuesday night. The Georgia Bulldogs stayed at No. 5 and Georgia Tech moved up one spot to No. 16 coming off a bye week.

Georgia didn’t officially lock up a spot in the College Football Playoff by knocking off Texas in their prime-time clash, but they came pretty close.

The Longhorns dropped two games to the Bulldogs a year ago, and now head to Athens as both teams battle for playoff positioning.

Georgia slotted in the top 12 of the CFP playoff rankings in the 2025 debut. Here’s the College Football Playoff picture and path to the championship.

With the 41-21 win over Mississippi State, Georgia picked up their 900th win as a program, making it one of nine FBS teams to reach that mark. The achievement comes amidst high expectations for the team this season, reinforcing their status not just as a current elite team but as a legacy program.

There were big wins and disappointing losses in Week 12 of the college football season. Texas A&M and Alabama lead the winners and losers.
