Another week, another College Football Top 25. Saturday was pure chaos, and everyone across the country had the blessing of watching it. Several nail-biting Top 25 finishes and some upsets sprinkled in between. Races for the conference championship are picking up pace as key matchups continue to conclude.
The most important game of the week did not disappoint. Tennessee took down #3 Alabama on a last-second field goal. Knoxville erupted, and the College Football landscape completely changed. TCU completed a stunning 17-point comeback over #8 Oklahoma State in double overtime. Michigan showed up in a big way, clobbering #11 Penn State 41-17. Alongside several other key matchups like USC versus Utah. A “shakeup” is an understatement, as a brand new, never in the playoff era, #1 has arrived in the Gridiron Top 25.
