## Resource

Week 3 is here, and Gameday Xpress is back with a quick breakdown before another loaded Saturday of college football. We recap some of the biggest performances from Friday night, take a look at how the Heisman race is starting to shape up, and talk about a few players who are beginning to separate themselves from the pack. Then we get into my Matchups of the Week, including some major conference games, an important Group of Six battle, and one matchup that could have a huge impact on the SEC picture. There are a lot of teams with something to prove today. Who makes a statement? Who strengthens their playoff case? And who walks out of Saturday with more questions than answers?
