The AP Top 25 college football poll is keeping fans on the edge of their seats, with Ohio State maintaining the No. 1 spot after obliterating Grambling State in a 70-0 victory, according to NBC4i.
The Buckeyes' dominance secured them 62 first-place votes from coaches and 57 from AP media members, while Big Ten adversary Penn State trails behind as the second pick, now the football landscape, still volatile from a slew of defeats to unranked teams in Week 2, keeps the jostling for rankings in constant flux, Week 3 also welcomed South Florida to the No. 18 spot after back-to-back wins, including an upset over Boise State as KATV reported.
Looking ahead at the matchups, Ohio State's stronghold on the first seed in the 12-team College Football playoff bracket appears unshakeable despite fluctuating projections of their potential opponents, meanwhile, preparations are underway for their game against the Ohio Bobcats, which marks the conclusion of their non-conference play, and fans will have to tune in via Peacock to catch the broadcast, as highlighted by the same NBC4i report.
As for upcoming games that are set to rivet the college football audience, the SEC match-ups stand out with No. 6 Georgia and No. 15 Tennessee squaring off – Georgia as the slight favorite – yet, Tennessee's transfer QB Joey Aguilar could bring an unexpected twist, and then, No. 8 Notre Dame, which had a bye week to regroup after a tight game against Miami, faces No. 16 Texas A&M, a game with both teams looking to solidify their standings; both of these face-offs shed some light on the unpredictable journey to the playoff spots, according to FOX Sports.
