Another weekend has passed & another chaotic day of College Football results in a new Gridiron Top 25. We are getting thick into the season as conference games are hitting full swing with several key matchups across the country. Once again, this week didn’t pass without some huge upsets & big implications on the race for the Playoffs.
This week, more than ever, we have a dramatic shakeup across the Top 25. The SEC had a number of big scorelines. The main one? Tennessee took down Florida in Knoxville. The hype is real around the Vols. Four weeks into the season & they look incredible across the field. Kentucky struggled against Northern Illinois, but their win against Florida continues to hold them up across national polls. Another big SEC clash resulted in Arkansas’ hearts being torn from its chest following a missed field goal in the final minute.
In the Big 12, we witnessed Kansas State stun the Sooners in Norman. Oklahoma can’t seem to shake the Wildcats from its nightmares. Every season, even with a new staff, K-State seems to have a name out for OU. After an impressive nonconference stretch, and K-State’s loss to Tulane, this came as a surprise for many across the country.
