In this story:

It wasn't the prettiest of wins from Georgia against South Carolina, but it was a win nonetheless. The Bulldogs went into the locker room down 14-3 at halftime, and they came out in the second half swinging, and once they gained the lead, they never looked back.

Head coach Kirby Smart and his program picked up their 20th straight win, and they managed to do it in a comeback fashion. Georgia's defense held strong throughout the game, and the offense found a rhythm in the second half to help capture the win. And much of that credit goes to quarterback Carson Beck, who finished the day with a 77 completion rate, 269 yards and zero turnovers.

It was a pretty tough week altogether for ranked teams in week three of college football, though. Texas was tied with Wyoming going into the 4th quarter, Alabama was tied with USF at halftime and Florida State barely squeaked one out against unranked Boston College. But now that the dust has settled, here is how the coaches' poll finished out after week three.

  3. FSU
  4. Ohio State 
  5. USC
  6. Texas
