It's only the first week of the college football season. The Pac-12 is playing its way out of College Football Playoff conversation. Florida knocked off Utah in Billy Napier's debut as head coach. Ohio State beat Notre Dame 21-10 in the opening weekend's main event. Bleacher Report's college Football experts' consensus Top 25 is Alabama.

It's currently Alabama, Georgia, Ohio, Clemson, Michigan, Texas A&M, Florida, Oklahoma, USC, Notre Notre, Miami, Baylor, Wisconsin, Iowa, and Texas.

Georgia beat No. 11 Oregon 49-3 on Saturday. The passing attack was almost flawless, with Stetson Bennett, Carson Beck and Bo Nix throwing for 439 yards and three touchdowns. Georgia's defense picked off Bo twice and limited Oregon to one field goal. Georgia has one more ranked opponent left, at AP No 20 Kentucky in two-and-a-half months. LSU had 14 players taken in the NFL draft, but it crashed and burned.

NC State lost its season opener at East Carolina 21-20. The team was ranked No. 10 in the preseason. It's not clear if the team can dethrone Clemson in ACC. The Wolfpack plummet from No 10 to No 25. ECU won seven games last season. They have one of the most experienced quarterbacks in college football. Owen Daffer missed a game-winning field goal. He missed the extra point.

Cincinnati lost its season opener to No. 19 Arkansas by a final score of 31-24. The team is not going to the College Football playoffs. It's first loss outside of bowl season since the 2019 AAC championship against Memphis. The Bearcats have road games against SMU and UCF in late October. They should still be in the New Year's Six for a third consecutive year. However, they should win each of their remaining 11 games if they're even 85 percent as good as they have been in recent years.
