6 College Football teams that changed our opinion after Week 2

Week 2 of college football showcased a variety of shifts in team rankings. Three teams rose in the polls, while three fell. Oklahoma State emerged victorious in their home opener against preseason No. 2 Oregon, overcoming Oregon's preseason ranking thanks to strong play from quarterback Drew Mestemaker and a dominant offensive performance. Oregon, on the other hand, saw a significant drop after losing to Oklahoma State, as key staff members opted to stay in Eugene and valuable players chose to return for another year.

Michigan made a surprising comeback against heavy favorites Oklahoma, with quarterback Bryce Underwood delivering an impressive performance, throwing for 111 yards and rushing for 87 more.

Meanwhile, UNLV suffered a major blow in their opening loss to North Texas, with head coach Dan Mullen attributing the defeat to coaching mistakes.

The team now faces an uphill battle as their October matches bring threats from California and North Dakota.
