College Football Top 25 (Week 3) 16-20

16. Houston Cougars

Last Week: Bye


Notes: Houston brings a big time offensive attack when they come to town.  Texas Tech is up next and the Red Raiders had better be ready for this game.  Houston will be ready and they are licking their chops at the chance for another win against a Big 12 south team. 


17. Oklahoma State Cowboys


Last Week: Beat Rice 41-24


Notes: The Pokes were ready this week, and Rice is not the team that Houston is.  It showed on the field.  That said, outside of restoring some confidence, it didn't do much for OSU.  They should cruise through the next 2 weeks too, then the fun begins.  If they can avoid letdowns from here on, they can still make some noise.



18. Virginia Tech Hokies



Last Week: Beat Nebraska 16-15



Notes: I know the old saying, " A win is a win", and they beat Nebraska.  That said, they were not the best team on the field, and they did not deserve to win.  Nebraska's young defense had a blown coverage at the wrong time and Tyrod Taylor actually hit a few passes to steal one from the Huskers.  They NEED to find an offense, or you will see losses start to sprout on their record.  But on the bright side, they don't have to play the Noles this year.  That should save one loss.  If they want to prove they are a contender in the ACC, they better win in Miami this week.  Good luck boys.


19. Brigham Young Cougars

Last Week: Lost to Florida State 28-54



Notes: BYU got exposed at home.  They cannot run like teams like the Noles can.  They are a good team, and they may not lose the rest of the way out, but they are not a top 10 team. 
 


20. Nebraska Cornhuskers



Last Week: Lost to Virginia Tech 15-16



Notes: Nebraska is rebuilding team, but they are getting there again.  They should have beat Va. Tech and with more experience, they will win those games.  Their front 4 is one of the top units in the country.  They are going to be in a dogfight for the Big 12 north title this year though.
