DOWN GOES THE FORMER BIG 12. COLORADO STATE TAKES DOWN #5 TEXAS, AND UTEP SHOCKS #13 NEBRASKA. RB Kevin McDougal scores a 72 yard TD with 30 seconds left to beat Texas 53-46, rushing for 277 yards and 5 TDs in the performance of the week. UTEP controlled Nebraska pretty much from start to finish, taking a 30-13 lead before Nebraska attempted a late comeback. It certainly doesn’t mean the end of their season with a 12 team Playoff, but it’ll be hard to bounce back from, and shows what can happen when you’ve got the best squad from all 134 teams. #1 Clemson survives GameDay with #4 Georgia, the biggest test of the season for any team as their defensive line lived up to the hype with 6 sacks.

#3 Miami (FL) is the highest ranked team to fall, as Florida makes an early statement as the true king of the state. RB Chris Rainey had 180 yards and 3 TD including a 64 yard dagger in the 4th quarter. Most exciting game of the week goes to #6 LSU edging out #9 USC 57-49 in Triple OT. Joe Burrow goes NUCLEAR, throwing for 592 yards and 5 TD in the win.
