South CarolinaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 6Vicari Swain returned two punts for touchdowns to help put away Towson, but the Gamecocks face a more formidable challenge in the SEC opener against a Mississippi State team that has scored 100 combined points in two games.20. NebraskaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 3Anthony Colandrea had a personal-best four touchdown passes to help the Cornhuskers easily get past Bowling Green in a 56-7 rout to improve to 2-0 going into a home date against North Dakota before opening Big Ten play with some winnable games.19.

OregonUSA TODAY Network via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 5Some big questions for the Ducks on both sides of the ball, but especially on defense after allowing 561 total yards to Oklahoma State in a loss that will do considerable damage to what was a preseason national championship contender from the Big Ten.12. OklahomaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 1All those questions about the Sooners’ offense are being asked again after a touchdown loss at Michigan despite being favored, with John Mateer being held under 200 yards, throwing a costly pick that became a Wolverines touchdown, and OU’s playoff hopes take an early major hit with several ranked SEC opponents still to come.11. TennesseeIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 7Big Orange had a big advantage on the ground with 300 yards rushing and survived 14 penalties in a 45-24 victory against Georgia Tech on the road, with one more tune-up against Kennesaw State before opening SEC play against Texas in two weeks.10.

LSUUSA TODAY Network via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 2After a slow start that included a Sam Leavitt pick-six to put Louisiana Tech in the end zone, Lane Kiffin’s team recovered to complete a 45-14 victory. Now they go to Ole Miss.8. Texas A&MIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 2Holding just a four point lead in the fourth quarter, the Aggies tacked on 23 points in the final frame to put away Arizona State, adding two touchdowns off pick-sixes, but will have to improve on a ground offense that mustered just 2.6 yards per carry on the day.7. AlabamaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 2Stuck in a fistfight with Kentucky for a half, the Crimson Tide were able to take advantage of two critical UK turnovers – one a strip sack fumble and the other a turnover on downs – to score 2 touchdowns and finally get some breathing room to win its SEC opener and start 2-0.6. IndianaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: NoneJosh Hoover completed 6 passes and 4 of them went for touchdowns while the Hoosiers ran for almost 300 yards in a 55-0 rout against Howard and now goes against a WKU team that just allowed Georgia to score 70 points on it this weekend.5. MiamiIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 1Florida A&M agreed to play a 10 minute fourth quarter, such was the carnage in what ended up a 77-7 massacre put on by the Hurricanes, who put up 430 rushing yards and scored five times while Darian Mensah had 1 incompletion and 3 TD passes.4. GeorgiaIMAGN IMAGES via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 1Kirby Smart’s program won its 50th straight game against an unranked opponent, laying 70 points on overmatched Western Kentucky, the longest such streak in college football, but still halfway to Alabama’s mark of 100 straight wins.3.

TexasUSA TODAY Network via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Down 1Yes, somehow the ESPN algorithm dropped the Texas team it promoted to No. 1 last week after it just beat the top ranked team in the country. Another massively controversial move that everyone will hate, and rightly so, especially since they seemed to anticipate what would happen in Austin a week before it happened. Algorithms, huh?1. Ohio StateUSA TODAY Network via Reuters ConnectRankings change: Up 1Congrats to the Buckeyes, who at least looked like the No. 1 team in the country for the first three quarters in Austin on Saturday night. The other quarter? A defense that lost eight elite tacklers from a year ago looked like it, allowing Arch Manning to engineer three long touchdown drives and score 21 unanswered points in a loss that must be one of the most puzzling in Ohio State history.More: AP Top 25 College Football Teams Moving Up, Down in Week 3Add us as a preferred source on GoogleFollow
