Well, that was a weekend.
College football delivered again last Saturday with a slew of upsets among the top 10 that caused major changes to the projected playoff field and also left many wondering who the contenders and pretenders are across the nation.
Alabama losing to Vanderbilt was the biggest stunner, but Tennessee and Missouri also fell in the SEC as the conference race got a major shakeup. Southern California suffered a road loss at Minnesota, raising concerns about Lincoln Riley and how the transition to the Big Ten is going for the Trojans.
Looking ahead to Week 7, there's a major showdown between Ohio State and Oregon that will sort out which team is the favorite in the Big Ten. The annual clash between Oklahoma and Texas in Dallas should be as exciting on the field as the atmosphere at the State Fair of Texas leads SEC action that includes an Ole Miss visit to LSU and Alabama hosting South Carolina.
Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports discuss these topics and more in this week's version of the College Football Fix.
