After yesterday’s stunning 17-14 defeat to Appalachian State, on Kyle Field, the Aggies dropped from their Week 2 No. 6 USA TODAY Sports AFCA coaches poll ranking down to No. 22 heading into Week 3. Of the remaining programs in the top-25, the Aggies find themselves with the largest drop (16 positions). Two other squads – Baylor and Pittsburgh – each dropped 11 positions. The top-5 rankings remain unchanged and, now, No. 14 BYU finds themselves as the biggest “risers” following their Week 2 victory, in OT, over Baylor.
Next Saturday, the Aggies will look to “right the ship” versus No. 13 Miami – a well-needed, top-15 victory to quiet the alarms in College Station. The Aggies will host their third straight game at Kyle Field. Kick-off is set for 8:00 PM CT.
The gap between Alabama and Georgia narrowed considerably, in terms of first place votes, but the Alabama holds onto the No. 1 spot but there were some major changes in the USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll this week.https://t.co/WhJ2bKSxDh pic.twitter.com/o7VW92a8mp
