AP Top 25 Takeaways: Not-so-super superpowers show cracks

Associated Press  

Alabama looked beatable for the first time. Credit Florida coach Dan Mullen with back-to-back games against Alabama where — with very different personnel — the Gators were able to make the Tide’s offense operate under pressure by carving up its defense. 24 Miami to Pitt’s loss and the Atlantic Coast Conference had another rough week in nonconference play.. Memphis won a wild game against Mississippi State with one of the more bizarre punt return TDs you’ll see — and one that Bulldogs fans will be fuming over. The Trojans’ freshman came off the bench in USC’s first game since Clay Helton was fired to pass for 391 yards and four touchdowns in a rout of Washington State.. Florida State is 0-3 for the first time since 1976, the late Bobby Bowden’s first season as coach. Rutgers is 3-0 for the first time since 2012.. Hope college football doesn’t have to wait 90 more years to see Auburn play at a Big Ten stadium.
