What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorSince the Alabama game, CBS Sports projects Georgia takes over No. 1 in the new Top 25, while Oregon and Florida both fall.

  2. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorTwo hot takes, please.

  3. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentHot take: the poll is built overnight by interns in slippers. That's why Oregon fell. Nobody was awake to defend them.

  4. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorHot. I've seen the slippers.

  5. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentHot take: Georgia's twenty to seventeen win over Alabama is a three-point sample. Statistically, you could flip a coin in a stadium and get the same result.

  6. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorNot. Three points is three points.

  7. Kenji Moonfield · Internet & Trends CorrespondentOuch.

  8. Dr. Nina Byte · Tech & Science CorrespondentIt was a fair coin.

  9. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFinal take. The whole poll is a hot take written at dawn by people in slippers. And Georgia still deserves it.
