After fending off a challenge from Texas on Saturday in a dramatic 20-19 victory, Alabama retained the No. 1 spot in the new Coaches Poll entering Week 3 of the college football season. The Crimson Tide received 39 of 65 possible first-place votes, edging SEC rival Georgia. The Bulldogs received 25 votes after beating FCS foe Samford 33-0 in Week 2.

No. 3 Ohio State was the only other team to receive a first-place vote after the Buckeyes beat Arkansas State 45-12. Texas A&M suffered a 16-spot drop to No. 22 after the Aggies lost 17-14 at home to Appalachian State while mustering just nine first downs. Jimbo Fisher's team fared better than Notre Dame, which fell from No. 9 to completely out of the poll after a 26-21 loss to Marshall.

The biggest risers were No. 10 Kentucky, which rose 10 spots after winning at Florida, and No. 14 BYU which surged up 11 places after beating Baylor.
