USA Today Coaches Poll Top 25 College Football Schedule for Week 3

USC and Ohio State headline the weekend college football schedule of Week 3 in what is arguably the most anticipated game of the season.

 

The Trojans, the #1 team in the USA Today Coaches’ Poll, will host the #5 Buckeyes at the L.A. Coliseum in a battle that has been called the “Collision at the Coliseum”. OSU Heisman Trophy candidate Chris “Beanie” Wells will play after missing last week’s game against Ohio.

 

USC had a bye week last week as they helped to prepare for the epic battle between two of college football’s most storied programs.

 

The USC-Ohio State game is not the only top 25 matchup on the schedule. #10 Wisconsin will travel to take on #21 Fresno State on Saturday, while #11 Kansas and #17 South Florida will battle on Friday.

 

The Texas/Arkansas game has been postponed due to Hurricane Ike, becoming the second game featuring a top 25 team to be cancelled in as many weeks due to a hurricane.

 

On Thursday, North Carolina will travel to take on Rutgers at 7pm on ESPN, beginning the week's college football coverage.
