With just a few days before the first College Football Playoff rankings of the season, Week 9 was a chance for the undefeated teams stay alive and impress the committee.
For other teams, wins and losses help positioning for conference championship runs or bowl positions. While top-10 teams like Georgia, Florida State, Oregon and Texas handled their business, Oklahoma fell from the ranks of the unbeatens and Penn State got a scare against Indiana.
Here's how the power rankings play out after Week 9 results: The only real blip for Georgia on a day the Bulldogs extended their winning streak to 25 straight games was Florida driving 66 yards for a touchdown on the opening possession.
It was all Red and Black after that, as the Bulldogs scored 36 unanswered points to race past the Gators for a 43-20 victory, the sixth time in the past seven meetings that Georgia has won in this long-standing rivalry.
