AP Top 25 college football poll reaction - What's next for each ... (ESPN)

With the release of the latest AP college football poll, here's what is up next for each team in the new rankings.

[Landon Jackson](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4432715/landon-jackson) (LSU) and [Drew Sanders](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4685721/drew-sanders) (Alabama) both had sacks and [Jadon Haselwood](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4426370/jadon-haselwood) (Oklahoma) caught a touchdown. [Hendon Hooker](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4240858/hendon-hooker) is the established starter at quarterback and unquestioned leader of the Vols' team. That leaves [Mitch Griffis](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4433829/mitch-griffis) as the heir apparent, and he looked sharp in his debut in Week 1 against VMI, completing 21 of 29 passes for 288 yards and three touchdowns. [Sam Hartman](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4361994/sam-hartman) might be ready to return to action after he was sidelined by what the school called a [non-football injury](/college-football/story/_/id/34378493/wake-forest-demon-deacons-qb-sam-hartman-indefinitely-non-football-illness) last month. [Jaylan Knighton](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4429043/jaylan-knighton) was encouraging, and quarterback [Tyler Van Dyke](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4685186/tyler-van-dyke) looked sharp and efficient, completing 13 of 16 passes for two TDs. [Jarek Broussard](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4360654/jarek-broussard), Mel Tucker's team is looking to replace the production lost with [Kenneth Walker III](https://www.espn.com/nfl/player/_/id/4567048/ken-walker-iii)'s departure to the Seattle Seahawks. We'll learn a lot more when [Emory Jones](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4360230/emory-jones), [Xazavian Valladay](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4240350/xazavian-valladay) and a transfer-heavy Arizona State squad visit Stillwater. [Ainias Smith](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4428532/ainias-smith) has been huge, however, for the offense. McCarthy](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4433970/jj-mccarthy) is going to get the start in the next game against Hawai'i as he battles [Cade McNamara](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4427455/cade-mcnamara) for the starting job. [Bo Nix](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4426338/bo-nix), but it did apply pressure. [Spencer Sanders](https://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4361825/spencer-sanders) threw for 406 yards and four touchdowns, rushed for two more scores and completed as many passes of 40-plus yards (four) as he did all of last season. The secondary, with freshman safety [Malaki Starks](http://www.espn.com/college-football/player/_/id/4685530/malaki-starks) on the field, looks as dynamic as it has ever been.

Breaking down our ballot after the first full weekend of college football which saw defending champion Georgia open with a 49-3 win over Oregon.

Wake Forest won by 34, but we dropped them the most of any team because multiple teams impressed more in Week 1 ... We wish we could say it was because we had a hot take on the Bears, but the truth is it was an oversight on our end while putting the ballot together. The Utes fell slightly, but stayed in our top 10; a 3-point loss in a true road game against the SEC will not be enough to push them out. 24) Pittsburgh (1-0) (+1) 20) Kentucky (1-0) (+1) 15) Miami (Fl.) (1-0) (+1) 14) USC (1-0) (+1) 6) Michigan (1-0) (+1) 2) Georgia (1-0) (+1) Whether the rest of the country agrees with that assessment will be determined by 2 p.m. It scored a touchdown on its first seven drives, converted nine of the 10 third downs it faced and gained 571 offensive yards. and it fell one spot in our
