College football Week 10 turned out to be quite entertaining. Georgia Tech, previously undefeated, suffered its first defeat, Florida and South Carolina both gave Georgia and Ole Miss a scare, and Texas held off Vandy’s brave comeback. Football Playoff reveal. Julian Sayin is getting better. The Buckeyes will be heading to Ann Arbor with a 11-0 record. I’m sure there won’t be too many questions that week about the losing streak to Michigan. Is Indiana headed for a winner-takes-all showdown with Ohio State in Indy? Conference title and No. The Heisman Trophy winner and No. Aggies need to do a lot more. Mike Elko’s team has already passed the test, but their road games against Missouri and Texas determine whether they can compete for the SEC championship and a top-four CFP spot. The Tide is coming off an idle week that was welcomed after beating South Carolina. Will LSU get a bounce this week as the Brian Kelly era has ended?Feels like we’ve seen that game quite a few times this season. This team is full of confidence and makes big plays when they are needed. Except for the one play UGA-7 fans were hoping to see late. This year, every game played away from Athens was a challenge. I would be surprised if a trip to Starkville didn’t follow suit. Iowa’s underdog status this week makes a trip to Kinnick a very close game. Dan Lanning and his Ducks may also take that as a warning, given they’ve had two full weeks to prepare. I’d be surprised if they came in here flat. The Red Raiders have a lot of talent. Last week, they won a game that many people thought was an upset against Kansas State. If Jacob Rodriguez isn’t a First Team All-American and a finalist for every defensive player of the year award, then what are we actually doing here? This week’s best game is in Lubbock as the No. 8 BYU.It was tricky for a while against South Carolina, but the Gamecocks offense just didn’t have enough to really inflict damage. It doesn’t look easy anymore to win the final two games at Miss State and against Florida. Irish had a bad win over Boston College, but it was better than losing on the road. Miami and Georgia Tech can tell you more about it. Jeremiyah Love has one on right now. Navy scaring the Irish is a stretch, but stranger things have happened. OK, here’s where I’m gonna take some incoming. The Longhorns won two games against current top-15 teams, and Vandy’s score did not reflect how one-sided the game was. If you’re looking at power ratings, quality wins, and strength of schedule— it’s hard to argue Texas doesn’t have a case to be ranked this high. How is Oklahoma ranked above the Longhorns, for example? If Texas can get healthy in the secondary and at running back, is it that farfetched to think the Horns win in Athens and beat A&M? And a 9-3 Texas could have quite an interesting case for the CFP committee, as it would mean wins over Oklahoma, Vandy and either at UGA or an A&M squad— with losses at OSU, at UGA or against A&M and then that one-score game at Florida.
