Auburn football surges in USA TODAY re-rank after upsetting Georgia

Auburn football’s season took a dramatic turn after the Tigers delivered a stunning 27–24 upset victory over top-ranked Georgia, vaulting them into the national conversation. The win, Auburn’s most impressive of the year, triggered a chain reaction in college football rankings, with the Tigers earning votes in the latest AP Top 25 poll and climbing in the USA TODAY Sports 1-138 re-rankings.

Meanwhile, Georgia’s historic loss dropped the Bulldogs to fifth in the AP rankings, handing the top spot to Miami in a weekend marked by widespread upheaval. The SEC saw further volatility, as Florida re-entered the USA TODAY top 25 after defeating Texas, while LSU also rose following a dominant 31–0 shutout of Mississippi State.

Auburn’s victory reshaped expectations for the Tigers’ remaining schedule, proving that even powerhouse programs remain vulnerable in a week where half of the AP Poll’s top 10 suffered defeats.
