Texas has returned to the Top 10 just in time to face No. 5 Georgia (8–1) on Saturday in a game filled with College Football Playoff implications.

The 10th-ranked Longhorns (7–2) have turned the corner after early losses to top-ranked Ohio State and unranked Florida. Longhorns quarterback Arch Manning has been making strides, but the Bulldogs field the toughest defense the Longhorns have seen since their opener against the Buckeyes.
