It was inevitable that Arch Manning and the Texas Longhorns would fall from the top spot of the AP Top 25 following their collapse against the Oklahoma Sooners on Saturday night. The only question was how deep they fell in the latest football poll.

Prior to the game, Texas boasted a perfect 5-0 record. They shine as one of the best teams in the country, even stunning then-No. 1 Ohio State 24-23 in Week 2. This paved the way for them to take over the top spot for the next couple of weeks.

However, their control over first place came to an end after losing to Oklahoma. The Sooners had multiple losses as they didn't have a place in the AP Top 25, making the loss detrimental to the Longhorns' championship prospects.

The Associated Press released the newest poll on Sunday. It showed that Texas fell by six spots, going from No. 1 to No. 7. The Georgia Bulldogs now possess the top spot after beating the Alabama Crimson Tide on Saturday night.

Manning will be mad at himself for costing his team the game, especially after being solid in the first half. He completed 19 out of 31 passes for 260 yards and three touchdowns and two interceptions.

Cam Coleman led all receivers with five catches for 110 yards and a touchdown. Meanwhile, Ryan Wingo and Jermaine Bishop Jr. caught the remaining touchdown passes.

The No. 7 Longhorns will look to bounce back in their next matchup, being at home. They host the No. 16 Florida Gators in Week 7 as kickoff commences on Oct. 17 at 12 p.m. ET.
