Last week, two previously undefeated teams went down. Wisconsin was at the wrong end of a 44-yard Hail Mary completion in a loss to Michigan State. Replay helped get the call right and gave an upset to the Spartans.
Oklahoma came out flat against Texas Tech after a nearly two-hour rain delay. The Red Raiders did everything they could to give the game away, but so did the Sooners.
Now, the epic matchup we all have waited for: Undefeated LSU and Alabama rumble for a chance to be in the driver's seat of the BCS.
