Oklahoma St. 52, Kansas St. 45 – Wildly entertaining shootout that reopens questions about the Oklahoma St. defense. The offense is humming right along still as Brandon Weeden matched Landry Jones' 502 yards passing against K-St. Last week with 502 of his own.
Arkansas 44, South Carolina 28 – Gamecocks manufactured some points off of defense and turnovers, but they just don't have enough firepower without Lattimore to win games like this, especially on the road.
Cincinnati 26, Pittsburgh 23 – It appears Cincinnati has figured out what was wrong last season and has returned to its place as the Big East overlord. 11-1 looks like a possibility and a record like that would actually be deserving of the BCS (Tennessee loss notwithstanding).
Baylor 42, Missouri 39 – Missouri left it for the 4th quarter again, just like last week. This week it was further to come and they didn't quite make it.
UCLA 29, Arizona St. 28 – Proof Arizona St. is still Clemson west and also proof that UCLA is improving rapidly. For the Bruins, win out and play for the Pac-12 Championship.
Utah 34, Arizona 21 – For those quickly piling on about Utah not being able to take the week after week pounding in the Pac-12, they exactly like a totally rebuilding roster with little experience that had a front loaded conference schedule. They'll be fine in the Pac-12 and will be a threat to win the South along with USC next year.
San Diego St. 35, New Mexico 7 – At least the Lobos managed to score this week. Next week is the last, best and only chance for a win: home vs UNLV.
Notre Dame 24, Wake Forest 17 – The Turnover Machine was working, but not in overdrive (only 2 Irish Tos) meaning the Irish got a decent road win.
Oregon 34, Washington 17 – Given one more year and Huskies will be able to win these games at home. The defense was surprisingly competent and the offense will be fine despite an off night tonight. Oregon was Oregon, ho humming along to next week's showdown at Stanford.
Boise St. 48, UNLV 21 – This game really hurts the Boise St. national title hopes as anyone searching for a late night game after the LSU-Alabama and Oklahoma St.-Kansas St. games finished saw this game was on and tied 14-14 in the 2nd quarter.
Houston 56, UAB 13 – Keenum breaks NCAA TD pass record. Ho hum.
