Alabama’s QB passed for 455 yards and they still lost, 52-49. I would not like to be on that ‘Bama defensive squad this week.

It was a week for upsets, as two other formerly undefeated top-ten teams fell alongside the Tide: #7 USC lost to Utah; and #8 Oklahoma State lost to TCU in an overtime battle of unbeatens. It appears that TCU is for real. This is the third consecutive week that they have bumped off a top-25 team.

SMU football’s game saw an unusual, lengthy delay. The Mustangs had to stop play because its mascot pooped on the field.

“The only problem was that it was not a small amount of feces. It was not an easy clean-up and the staff appeared to be unprepared for such an accident. They were out on the field picking up the poop by hand!”
