All FanDuel customers can bet $5 and get a three week free trial of NFL Sunday ticket from YouTube and YouTube TV, visit FanDuel.com to get started bringing in my brother, Jeff Jones from KVU Sports Director. On today's episode, once again, talking about Texas jumping up to number three in the AP poll, SEC Power Rankings in the second segment and then my top five Heisman contenders right now after just, I guess, two weeks, week zero and week one in the third segment. All of that and more on today's episode of Locked On Longhorns, part of the Locked On podcast network, your team, every day. So like I said, Texas was dominant on Saturday, 52 to zero beaten up on Colorado State and DKR and they were rewarded for it moving up to number three in the AP poll. So now we have Georgia stand at number one, Ohio State stand at number two, Texas number three, Alabama number four, Notre Dame moving up to number five after beating the Aggies, Ole Miss stand at number six, Oregon who was at number three falls all the way to number seven after only beating Idaho by 10 points. Then you got Penn State at number eight, Missouri at number nine and it rounds out with Michigan at number 10 who Texas will be facing off against this Saturday. So Jeff, I want to ask you once again, Jeff Jones, Sports Director from KVU, what are your thoughts on Texas moving up one spot in the AP poll after their performance this past Saturday? - You know, like it's expected after seeing what Oregon did and I think it's an accurate representation of where they are as compared to other powerhouses across the nation. I think Texas, and I've said this for a while, I think Texas is in prime position to not just make the playoff but to advance pretty far in this first 12 team playoff and they just solidified that in week one with that stomp in a Colorado State. So yeah, number three, sounds about right for now, get a big win on Saturday and, you know, maybe somebody else stumbles in the next coming weeks and number three could turn to number two or even something else before we know. - Right, so, you know, rightfully so, it was, you know, made sense for Texas to jump up just one spot, right? You know, Georgia played Clemson. So, you know, they're not going to go anywhere. Then Ohio State was pretty dominant against Akron just in terms of your eye test right now. Does Texas look like the third best team in the country or do they look a little bit higher to you? - See it, I don't want to speak out of turn here. I did not watch enough of the Ohio State game to really compare those two teams side by side. Georgia in the first half of their game against Clemson really didn't impress me. Like they didn't look like some unbeatable force of nature, some team that's been the best team in the nation for the majority of the past three or four seasons. They didn't look like that in the first half of that game to me, but in the second half, they were like, I just kidding, it's still us. We're the Bulldogs, we still bite. So, does Georgia deserve to be number one? I think so, even if in week one on that particular Saturday, what Texas did may have impressed me more from beginning to end of that game. So, your question, the ITAS, does Texas look like the number three team exactly? I don't know if I have enough information to say that, but they look like a top three team to me. - But what I will say is, just based on kind of what you said, after watching both of these teams play this past weekend, you probably feel a little bit more confident. I know it's a little bit down the road, but you feel a little bit more confident about that game on October 19th, because that Georgia team you saw on Saturday, you said certainly they look beatable, right? And especially with a team like Texas looked on Saturday, Texas looks like a team that could beat them at home. - Yeah, definitely, and the thing about that, that's interesting, is I don't believe anyone here in Austin thought that Georgia was unbeatable before week one, and they definitely didn't look unbeatable in week one. So, I think now going into that game, of course the players and coaches are gonna be like, UT is gonna win, but I think now the fans, instead of being like, I don't know, I think the fans are gonna say, remember week one? Yeah, we can take it, we got it, we got it. So, if anything, I think it gave a little more juice to the fans who were on the face. - Yeah, I for sure definitely had the same reaction watching that first half, you know, I was like, okay, you know, Texas, Georgia, for sure, that's gonna be a dynamite match up, but you know, certainly you can make the argument. - You know, it's underlined and highlighted. Yeah, stores all around it. - Exactly, like, you know, looking at that game, I was like, oh yeah, Texas could definitely be Georgia, right? Like you said, people in Austin already weren't scared, and we have even less reason to be scared after what we watched this past Saturday. You know, simply put, I think, you know, the AP Associated Press, they got it right, right? When you looked at what Oregon, you know, was able to do or lack thereof, and what Texas was able to do, shutting out Colorado State 52-0, Texas was significantly more impressive than Oregon was this Saturday, and they were rightfully rewarded for it. When you look at it, I just got some, you know, stats written down on my phone. Texas beat an FBS Colorado State team by 52 points, while Oregon beat an FCS Idaho team by only 10 points, right? Oregon had the ball in their possession for 39 minutes on Saturday, while Texas only had it for 30 minutes. So let that sink in. Oregon had the ball for 39 minutes and scored 24 points. Texas had it for 30 minutes and scored 52, right? I mean, just completely different performances from those two team. Texas accounted for more yards on offense while allowing less yards than Oregon, while once again, being on the field less on offense, and being on the field more on defense, and then Texas went eight for 15 on the money downs, right? 3rd and 4th down, Texas converted 53% on 3rd and 4th down, while Oregon went eight for 19 on 3rd and 4th down, which is only a 42% conversion. So I was going to be upset, you know, borderline pissed off, right? You know, if we got the AP poll results, and Oregon was still ahead of Texas, because, you know, you're supposed to be rewarded for your performance, even after just week one, you're supposed to be rewarded for your performance, and Texas was obviously a better team this past Saturday than Oregon was. So I thought, you know, the AP poll, I thought they got it right, right? Like I said, you know, Georgia still deserves to be number one, Ohio State, you know, 52 to six. I believe against Akron, they deserve to be number two, but Texas looked like a top three team in the country, and confirmed everything we thought about them coming into the season. Then you got Alabama, they move up a spot after beating Western Kentucky, 63 to zero, Notre Dame, at the time, beat a ranked A&M team on the road in a very tough environment. I think that justifies their move from seven up to number five, Ole Miss, beat Furman, you know, 76 to zero, I don't even know where Furman is, right? They beat him down, right? I think the biggest margin of victory over the weekend. So, you know, they stay at number six, Oregon still very talented, right? Just struggled against Idaho team, but they shouldn't have struggled against. So they moved down to number seven, I think that's fair. And then like I said, you had Penn State at number eight, they had a good win against West Virginia, Missouri at number nine, they were dominant, and then Michigan, that team that will face off against down Saturday at number 10. So Jeff, just your final thoughts on Texas over the weekend, did the AP poll and, you know, what's your excited for this weekend, I guess? Man, I think if you're a Michigan fan, you know, maybe some Michigan fans are doing some recon, listening to this podcast or something like that, I think you've got to be kind of math and Oregon's ahead of you. Like in my opinion, Oregon and Tech lost in week one. Like, you're not supposed to struggle against the teams you struggle against. Just beat Idaho by 10, go to overtime against ACU and win first. 51 to 52, Texas Tech and Abilene Christian. Come on now. Hang on, like, I mean, to me, those are losses, and I don't know, I don't know. I don't know how far I wanted Oregon to drop, but I know if I am a top 10 team, if I'm the reigning national champs, if I lost a lot of NFL talent, but still have a lot of NFL talent on my roster, and I see Oregon and what they did, and they lost in my mind, they lost, and they're still ranked ahead of me, I'm a little frustrated at that. So Michigan fans, if you're listening to a recon, just know that I'm sympathetic with you right now. I won't be sympathetic after Saturday, because I think we all know where my prediction is going to go with that one, but I am sympathetic with you right now. - But real quick, the counter argument to that is, Michigan didn't necessarily look great either, right? You know, only being Fresno State 30 to 10, and, you know, with two minutes left in that game, it was a 13 point game, right? They made it, you know, they dressed it up a little bit with the pick six at the end, but Michigan certainly struggled with, you know, Fresno State. So, you know, Oregon didn't look great, Michigan didn't look great, and that's why that spread has gone from, you know, three and a half this weekend to now, Texas being in favor by seven and a half, and who knows what it'll be by Saturday? Maybe it would be favored by double digits. All I know is love having Jeff Jones, sports director from KVU on locked on Longhorns. Great stuff as always. He'll be on a few more times this season.

So these are the week two SEC Power Rankings. And if you're on YouTube, I'm gonna go ahead and put those up on the screen. If you're listening on audio, it's gonna take my word for it, right? So as you can see now, the SEC rankings for week two are on the screen. And for the most part, I agree with Gordy. I'm just gonna run through him. So you look at number one, Georgia. They were number one last week. They stay at the number one spot. And I think that's perfectly fine based on what they did against, you know, a really good Clemson defense, at least, you know, K club nicked in the offense, left a lot to be desired. And it looks like they're gonna leave a lot to be desired throughout the season. Because Dabo Sweeney just refuses to use the portal and actually bringing some good offensive players. But nonetheless, it's a really tough defense neutral site game, even though it's in Atlanta, Georgia took care of business, dominating the Clemson team, 34 to three. A lot of people thought could make some noise in the ACC this year, so Georgia stays at number one. Texas was at the number two spot last week. They stay at the number two spot, beating up on Colorado State 52 to zero. Texas also moved up one spot in the AP poll, one of the most dominant teams over the weekend. They did nothing to fall in the SEC power rankings. They stayed as the number two team in the SEC. And in my opinion, my biased opinion, the biggest threat and contender to Georgia this year in the conference, number three Alabama standing at number three spot, beating up on Western Kentucky 63 to zero. Jalen Milro was dominant with five touchdowns, 200 passing yards on only nine attempts. He went crazy over the weekend. Like I said, Alabama was the number three spot in week one. And they stayed at number three after their dominant performance. Number four, Ole Miss, right? They beat up on Furman. Not even sure where Furman is. No, I mean, or while they were playing Ole Miss, it didn't matter 76 to zero. Jackson Dart over 400 yards and six touchdowns by halftime. They absolutely smoked Furman. So Ole Miss number four team in the SEC power rankings last week. They stay at number four and this week's rankings. Number five, chalk so far, right? Number five, Missouri. Last week, they stay at number five this week. Beat Murray State 51 to zero. So Missouri was absolutely dominant. Another top 10 team for the SEC. They're sitting at nine right now and they have a chance to move up this week, potentially depending on what happens in front of them. This is where we got some movement from week one to week two in terms of the SEC power rankings, right? Going into week one, Chris Gordy of locked on SEC had LSU as the number six team in the conference. He's also an LSU fan, but don't tell him I told you that, right? So he had LSU as the number six team in the conference. But going into week three, I guess at this point or week two, yeah, going into week two at this point, Tennessee is now the number six team in the conference after beating Chattanooga 69 to three. Nico Yama-Lava looked like one of the best quarterbacks in the country, not even one of the best young quarterbacks, just best quarterbacks period, only played up into the half, you know, accounted for over 300 yards and four touchdowns, I believe he was absolutely dominant. Look forward to that game this weekend against NC State, obviously going to be a tougher matchup for Tennessee than Chattanooga, but I think Tennessee wins that game as well, certainly made a case to be the six best team in the SEC right now, according to Chris Gordy of locked on SEC. Last week, Tennessee was the number 17. That spot is now occupied by Oklahoma. They moved up a spot from number eight last week in Chris Gordy's rankings. They beat Temple 51 to three. Look, it's Temple. I don't think Oklahoma was just overly impressive, but they won, they took care of business and they still won by 48 points, right? So Oklahoma moves up a spot in the SEC rankings, even though I think they only completed like 8% of their third downs. They weren't as impressive as I thought they could have been, but nonetheless, they took care of business and not every team in the SEC did. So Oklahoma moved up a spot. Number 18 last week, like I said, was Oklahoma. That spot is now occupied by Auburn. They moved up from the number 10 spot to the number eight spot in Chris Gordy's rankings from locked on SEC beat Alabama A&M 73 to three. Like I went to Texas Southern, you know what I'm saying? So shout out to my HBCU's. I always hate to see my HBCU's get done like this, but, you know, Auburn certainly went out there and took care of business. Hugh Freeze is looking like he's turning things around at Auburn, for sure. So, you know, a nice win 73 to three, even though it was against, you know, like I said, the HBCU, Auburn moves up two spots in this week's SEC power rankings. Number 19 going into this week was Texas A&M. They have dropped all the way to number 11, I guess. And now LSU, who was six last week, they've moved down to number nine. Look, I know they lost to USC. I know that they were winning in the fourth quarter, but Lincoln Riley with a defensive coordinator, we always knew at Texas fans that would be a lethal combination. I think USC is going to, you know, make some really, make a lot of noise this year. I should say, I think, you know, USC is a really good team. And even though LSU has had really bad luck in, you know, the season openers. And even though I think, you know, Brian Kelly is now three and six against ranked teams, you know, in his time at LSU, I don't think that that's a loss that they should necessarily hang their head over, right? A team had to win that game. And I think USC is going to be really good this year. So, you know, I think LSU moving down to number nine, you know, after losing 27 to 20 to USC is pretty fair. I think LSU is still going to be one of the strongest teams in the conference. They still can beat almost anybody on their schedule. They just ran into a really good USC team that executed better than them down the stretch. Number 10 last week was Auburn. Now it is Kentucky. Kentucky moved up from number 11 to number 10. Nothing crazy, nothing super impressive. But they beat who was in front of them. Beat Southern missed 31 to 0. So Kentucky moves up a spot in the SEC power rankings. Number 11, that was Kentucky last week. It is now Texas A&M. They moved down two spots after losing to Notre Dame, 23 to 13. I thought the defense played really, really well in that game, a super defensive matchup between Notre Dame and Texas A&M. But Connor Weigman in that offense just could not do absolutely anything against Notre Dame. Partly, you know what I mean? Because Notre Dame is now the number five team in the country, and they have an elite defense, but also A&M just sucks on offense, right? And they're going to suck on offense for the remainder of the season. So they're at 11 right now. I would not be surprised if Texas A&M continues to move down in the lockdown SEC rankings, according to Chris Gordy. Number 12, Florida was last week. Excuse me, Florida was last week. Now it is Arkansas. Beat Arkansas, Pine Bluff, 70 to 0. They looked good, you know, albeit against the HBCU and Bobby Petrino's return as offensive coordinator calling the offense. So Arkansas went out there, beat them 70 to 0. They started running the clock in the second half, took care of who was in front of them. Arkansas now number 12 in the rankings after being number 13 team last week. Last week, Arkansas was 13. And now that spot is occupied by Vanderbilt, who moved all the way from number 16 to number 13, right? Vanderbilt was an underdog at home by two touchdowns to Virginia Tech and ended up beating them in overtime. So a great win for Vanderbilt, a great win for the SEC. And Vanderbilt moves up three spots in the lockdown SEC power rankings. This week, South Carolina was the number 14 team last week. That spot is now occupied by Mississippi State. We saw a lot of offense from Blake Shaping, a lot of offense from Jeff Levy, new head coach in Starksville, that beat Eastern Kentucky 56 to seven. And Mississippi State moved up one spot in the SEC power rankings. Mississippi State was the number 15 team last week. And now that spot is occupied by Florida, right? Florida drops all the way from number 12 to number 15 after losing to Miami 41 to 17, absolutely getting the doors blown off of them at home in the swamp where they had lost 33 straight games. That team looks hopeless and Billy Napier is a dead man walking. And last week Vanderbilt was the number 16 team, the lowest team in the SEC power rankings. And that spot is now occupied by South Carolina, who was only able to beat Old Dominion at home, 23 to 19, right? 23 to 19, right? So, you know, South Carolina, Lenora Sellers, they have a lot to figure out Shane Beamer with that team. They are the lowest team right now in the SEC power rankings. So like I said, Chris Gordy is gonna do these every week has locked on SEC power rankings. Right now, Texas is number two, Georgia, number one, rightfully so, South Carolina. Number 16, the lowest team in the conference. Good to see Vanderbilt not having that moniker for once in probably the last three, four years, right? And so, we'll see after a big weekend in SEC football what the power rankings look like next week. A quick word from our sponsors, and then we get into my top five Heisman rankings, which I'll be doing every week, updating the top five Heisman contenders in the country right now, in my opinion.

All right, getting out of here, like I said, weekly segment, my top five Heisman rankings going into week two of college football. I wonder if I should do it like five to one or one to five, right, like what's the best way to do it? I guess I'll go five to one, right? So my number five is Jalen Milra, right? I thought he was special. They beat up on Western Kentucky, 63 to zero. And of course, he was a huge part of it. 200 yards passing on only nine passing attempts, right? Over 22 yards per attempt, which is absolutely insane. 200 yards on only nine passing attempts. We knew last year he was a lead at throwing the deep ball. He continues to be elite at throwing the deep ball and picking up big yardage on just such a few attempts. And then 79 rushing yards as well, right? He's probably the best dual threat quarterback in college football right now. 79 rushing yards, five touchdowns accounted for and was dominant in a shutout of Western Kentucky. So I have Jalen Milra, as my number five Heisman candidate right now, going into week two. Number four, Jackson Dart, 445 total yards and six touchdowns by halftime, right? Five passing touchdowns and one rushing touchdown. The only reason I have him down at number four after that dominant performance in just two quarters is it was against Furman, right? And like I said, I don't even know where Furman is. I don't even know why Ole Miss is scheduling a team like Furman, but nonetheless, Jackson Dart went out there and played who was in front of him and he dominated. And, you know, we talked so much about, you know, Shadira Sanders and Quinn Ewers and Carson Beck and now Cam Ward's going to be in that conversation. When are we going to put Jackson Dart in that conversation? He was great last year. And, you know, why receivers like Trey Harris, with the coach like Lane Kiffin, Jackson Dart is going to continue to put up Gody numbers this season. He certainly is going to be one of the best quarterbacks in the draft. But at the time, he starts getting mentioned in that breath. He's my number four Heisman candidate right now going into week two, number three, right? I don't know how to say his first name. I watched a couple YouTube videos. I tried, right? So I'm just going to call him T-Mac McMillan. And I always want to put a non-quarter back in these rankings because it's such a quarterback award, right? We got to show love to our running backs, our wide receivers and some of our other players, right? 'Cause they're out here balling too. But T-Mac McMillan, right? The wide receiver from Arizona, 10 catches for 304 yards and three touchdowns including a 78-yarder, absolutely dominant. And they needed it, right? I can't even remember who exactly they played, but they gave up 39 points. Good thing they scored 61 on offense. And a lot of that is because T-Mac McMillan, 10 catches for 304 yards and three touchdowns this past weekend. Maybe trying to put up a Devon taste mid 2020 season, huh? Could we see another wide receiver win the Heisman? He's certainly off to a great start. Number two, Carson Beck. Didn't have Gody numbers, 297 total yards and two touchdowns. But led his team to a 34-3 victory over a very good Clemson defense. Clemson was ranked, right? And so you give Carson Beck that credit on beating up a better team than, you know, Jackson Dart against Furman and Jalen Milro against Western Kentucky. So Carson Beck, number one team in the country, they proved why and he was really good in the second half. Got him as my number two Heisman candidate. Number one, he's on everybody's radar after what he did in the swamp. Just a special game from Cam Ward for Miami, putting the U back on the map and doing it in spectacular fashion. He may have killed any hope Florida had of having a decent season. They were gonna have a great season, but he killed any hope they had of having a decent season from the moment he stepped into the swamp, just cool, calm and collected 418 total yards and three touchdowns, showing it off on the ground, showing it off with some crazy throws. And like I said, he just went in there and basically ended Billy Napier's tenure at the University of Florida.
