A Tough Road Ahead for All AP Top 25 Teams
As college football progresses into Week 3, numerous top teams are facing unexpected challenges. Here are the considerations for each ranked team:
- Missouri: Tough secondary depth – With only a few strong corners and vulnerability shown against timing routes.
- Auburn: Undetermined defensive strengths – Despite a great performance against a weaker opponent, tackling issues might surface against tougher teams.
- Michigan: Mixed responses from receivers – Limited depth could hinder championship aspirations despite solid quarterback play from a freshman.
- Tennessee: A shifting SEC landscape – The promising playoff path has been complicated by unexpected challenges, like strong performances from typically weaker teams.
- Texas: Incomplete passing connections – The relationship between Arch Manning and his WRs needs improvement to meet expectations.
These observations reveal both the struggles and the development needed for each contender to succeed as the season progresses.
