College Football Rankings 2017: Projected Week 3 AP Top 25

After jumping up into the AP Top 25 last week, No. 23 TCU locked their position in the rankings in Week 2. In a trip to Fayetteville, the Horned Frogs put up a convincing 28-7 win over Arkansas on Saturday. They could benefit from inaction among teams right above them in the polls to climb a few more spots.

Gary Patterson’s defense looks especially stout this season. The Horned Frogs held Razorbacks quarterback Austin Allen to 138 yards and one touchdown on 9-of-23 passing. They also contained the Arkansas running game, which put up just 129 yards on 31 carries after gaining 236 with four touchdowns against FCS Florida A&M in a Week 1 blowout.

Kenny Hill didn’t look great at quarterback for TCU. The Texas A&M transfer went 21-of-31 but had just 166 yards with an interception. Running back Darius Anderson picked up the slack, running for 106 yards and a touchdown on 15 carries. Sewo Olonilua had two more rushing scores on his only two carries of the game.
