After picking up a marquee win on the road in Week 2, both the Oregon Ducks and Iowa Hawkeyes have surged in B/R's latest Top 25 for the 2021 college football season.
Oregon never trailed during a 35-28 victory at Ohio State, which entered Saturday with an undefeated record against the Ducks in the all-time series. Later on, Iowa's defense propelled the Hawkeyes to a 27-17 win over rival Iowa State.
But as Oregon and Iowa soared in the rankings, Texas had a miserable day at Arkansas and exited the Top 25 along with USC.
Bleacher Report's college football crew—David Kenyon, Adam Kramer, Kerry Miller, Morgan Moriarty and Brad Shepard—each cast a ballot after Week 2's results.
