College football 2020: Winners, losers from Week 3 AP Top 25

Loser: Pitt (No. 25)

Pittsburgh, like Army, was a team that won its Week 1 contest in blowout fashion, but was not given the respect that I thought that it deserved. The Panthers were not thought of as highly as a team like Florida State before the season, but I think they could be a sneaky-good team to make the ACC title game if there offense can keep playing at this level.

Pitt had one of the best defenses in the country last season, but the big question mark was if fourth-year quarterback Kenny Pickett could make the necessary growth to make this a dangerous team.

I know it was just Austin Peay, but Pitt was explosive and efficient in their win on Saturday and even played shortened quarters because the game had gotten so bad.

If we are going to make a big deal when Oklahoma is putting up video game numbers against Central Missouri, then Pitt deserves some credit, too, and ranking them behind a team like App State, who struggled as a 17-point favorite is bit odd.

Loser: BYU (No. 21)

BYU was perhaps the most impressive team in this first weekend of college football and it is really disappointing that they are not going to have a chance to showcase themselves even further with their game against Army being postponed this weekend.

The Cougars deserve to be ranked higher because they were throughly dominant in their win over what was thought to be a pretty solid Navy squad. BYU looked physical on both sides of the ball and dominated on both lines of scrimmage and won 50 points.

I just think that a showing like that should be enough to get a team ranked a little higher, especially in a year where there are four conferences missing from the action.
