  Cincinnati held on to the No. 2 ranking by just four points over No. 3 Alabama in The Associated Press college football poll Sunday, and Oregon passed Ohio State to move up to No. 5. Georgia is a unanimous No. 1 for the fifth straight week in the Top 25 presented by Regions Bank. The teams closest to the Bulldogs are more tightly packed after another weekend of upsets and close calls. The Bearcats received 1,440 points from the media panel after beating Tulsa 28-20, and the Crimson Tide had 1,336 following a 20-14 victory against LSU. Cincinnati has been ranked No. 2, best in school history, for four straight weeks. Oklahoma, which had an open date this past weekend, stayed at No. 4. Oregon moved up two spots to No. 5 after beating Washington 26-16. The Ducks jumped Ohio State at No. 6, taking advantage of Michigan State’s first loss of the season. The Buckeyes won 26-17 at Nebraska. The Ducks were as high as No. 3 in the country early in the season after beating Ohio State in Week 2, but had slipped behind the Buckeyes while taking a loss. - AP College Football

  The University of Cincinnati football team will open the 2021 season with the highest preseason Associated Press ranking in program history. The Bearcats were ranked No. 8 when the first AP poll was released Monday. The No. 8 ranking comes a week after the team was selected No. 10 in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll. Cincinnati, which has won 31 games over the past three seasons, including a 9-1 mark last season, is the first team from outside of the Power Five conferences to be ranked in the preseason AP top 10 since Louisville started ninth in 2012. The Cardinals, who were also a member of the American Athletic Conference, joined the Atlantic Coast Conference the following year. - Cincinnati Enquirer
