After an upset-filled Week 2 of the season, Week 3 was more about near misses by the underdogs.
Texas A&M was able to edge out Miami, 17-9, in the biggest matchup of the day while Florida and Arkansas struggled with South Florida and Missouri State, respectively.
While those teams were able to avoid a disastrous loss, the same was not true for Auburn who was crushed by Penn State 41-12 in Jordan-Hare Stadium. After a 2-0 start, the loss has seemingly reignited Bryan Harsin’s hot set and he will need a strong start to SEC play to cool it off.
Here are the SEC power rankings after Week 3 of the college football season.
