ESPN FPI Rankings after Week 11: Georgia moves to No. 1, Alabama falls despite win
By Adam Spencer

The Georgia Bulldogs made a statement against the Missouri Tigers in Week 11, dominating at home to the tune of a 48-21 final score that shouldn’t have even been that close.
Now the Dawgs are at No. 1 in the new ESPN Football Power Index (FPI), jumping above Notre Dame. However, the Alabama Crimson Tide actually fell a spot despite a 21-6 road win over Vanderbilt.
You can see the full top 25 rankings below, and you’ll notice a distinct lack of SEC flavor this week. The Big Ten is actually the dominant conference this time around:
- Georgia
- Notre Dame
- Miami
- Alabama
- Ohio State
- Texas
- LSU
- Indiana
- Oregon
- Wake Forest
- Tennessee
- Utah
- Ole Miss
- Texas Tech
- BYU
- Louisville
- Iowa
- Nebraska
- USC
- Duke
- Arizona
- Penn State
- Oklahoma
- Northwestern
- UCLA
That’s only 7 SEC teams in the top 25 this week, the lowest total of the season. The Big Ten actually leads the way this week with 9 teams in the top 25.
The 9 SEC teams that didn’t make the top 25 were Florida (No. 26), Mizzou (No. 28), Texas A&M (No. 29), South Carolina (No. 33), Kentucky (No. 34), Auburn (No. 35), Mississippi State (No. 50), Arkansas (No. 51) and Vanderbilt (No. 65).
