CFP History Indicates Where Georgia Might Land in Initial Rankings

A quick look at the history of the initial rankings will tell you where you should expect the No. 1 ranked (AP Poll) Bulldogs to land. Spoiler, it's not No.1 in the CFP.

The undefeated and two-time defending national champion Georgia Bulldogs are currently ranked No. 1 in the AP Poll and the Coaches Poll entering the initial CFP Rankings that will debut Tuesday evening at 7 PM ET on ESPN. 

Georgia began the 2023 campaign where it ended the past two seasons - ranked No. 1. The Bulldogs have been ranked No. 1 by the Associated Press and USA Today Coaches Poll since Oct. 9, 2022.

However in the first CFP rankings last year (Nov. 1), Georgia came in at No. 3 when it played host to CFP No. 1 Tennessee. The Bulldogs beat the Vols 27-13 and moved to the top spot in the CFP rankings the rest of the season.

During the 2021 campaign, the Bulldogs were No. 1 in the first five CFP rankings before finishing at No. 3 in the final following the SEC Championship Game. The Bulldogs would go on to beat No. 2 Michigan and No. 1 Alabama for its first CFP title.
