After a couple of cupcake weeks and most teams at the top falling in line, Week 3 proved to be a bit of a test for some and insight of others.
BYU is 2 - 0 against Heisman hopefuls. Both these wins were away games, both upsets, yet they could not pull off a W at home against Cal last week (it was BYU 2017 playing last week...too little, too late). But week 1 and 3 BYU showed they can play better and more consistent this year. Against the Badgers BYU was not lucky, they just man-handled in the trenches and made the right play calls at the right time. BYU is not #1 by any means but they felt like it on Saturday. They'll play with some confidence the rest of the season.
Georgia is done playing around and it is all uphill from here on out. They cannot afford to look ahead or overlook any team or rest on their laurels.
Bama continues to dominate but I wonder if the ease of winning will catch up to them...
Ohio State is done with it's Urban ban but they are still targeted more than any other top team this year and that will catch up to them. We won't see them in the playoff and I don't think the selection committee wants to deal with the ire it would draw anyway.
