Predicting College Football’s Top 25 After Week 3: The Great Alabama Debate

Week 2 of the college football season provided a number of close games and specifically, one or two results that pushed the line of nearly being upsets. But with the exception of No. 11 Tennessee and No. 15 Kansas State, the top 25 teams mostly got the job done this week — even if it wasn’t always pretty.

So let’s dive in and breakdown the projected top 25 rankings after the third week of college football action. There’s no better place to start than with the top four teams in the country: Georgia (24-14 win over South Carolina), Michigan (31-6 win vs. Bowling Green), Florida State (31-29 win over Boston College) and finally Texas (31-10 win over Wyoming).

It’s unlikely any of the top four spots change, even with No. 6 Ohio State completely rolling past Western Kentucky 63-10 and No. 7 Penn State defeating Illinois 30-13.
