Week 3 of the college football season delivered on all fronts, with several top-ranked teams facing major tests and a few falling from grace. From last-second field goals to overtime thrillers, here’s a look at some of the most notable results from yesterday’s Top 25 action.
The Upset of the Week
Georgia Tech 24, No. 12 Clemson 21
In a shocking upset, unranked Georgia Tech took down No. 12 Clemson in a dramatic finish. After Clemson tied the game late in the fourth quarter, the Yellow Jackets engineered a heroic final drive. With time expiring, kicker Aidan Birr split the uprights on a 55-yard field goal, sending the home crowd into a frenzy and handing the Tigers a crushing loss.
No. 6 Georgia 44, No. 15 Tennessee 41 (OT)
In a classic SEC battle, No. 6 Georgia outlasted No. 15 Tennessee in a wild overtime thriller. The Volunteers controlled much of the game, showcasing a dynamic offense that kept the Bulldogs on their heels. However, Georgia’s defense made a crucial stop at the end of regulation, and the Bulldogs capitalized with a game-winning touchdown in overtime to seal the victory and remain undefeated.
No. 16 Texas A&M 41, No. 8 Notre Dame 40
The No. 16 Texas A&M Aggies delivered a stunning performance in South Bend, erasing a late deficit to defeat No. 8 Notre Dame. The Aggies’ offense marched down the field in the final seconds, with quarterback Marcel Reed hitting Nate Boerkircher for a go-ahead touchdown on a fourth-and-goal play with just 13 seconds left. The loss is the second of the season for the Fighting Irish, who will likely tumble in the new rankings.
Dominant Victories
No. 5 Miami 49, No. 18 USF 12
Miami’s offense was firing on all cylinders as the Hurricanes handed South Florida a decisive loss. The Hurricanes scored on their first two possessions and never looked back, putting an end to the Bulls’ impressive start to the season. Miami’s defense was also dominant, forcing two interceptions and a fumble while holding the Bulls to just one touchdown.
No. 2 Penn State 52, Villanova 6
Penn State’s defense was once again a dominant force, leading the Nittany Lions to a blowout win over FCS Villanova. The Nittany Lions’ offense struggled at times in the first half but came alive in the second, as the team cruised to a 3-0 record
No. 19 Alabama 38, Wisconsin 14
Alabama’s offense continued its resurgence, overpowering Wisconsin with a balanced attack. The Crimson Tide secured its second consecutive convincing victory after a tough Week 1 loss.
