Buckeyes Get By the Hawkeyes, Stanford Wins The Big Game, Nebraska Stumbles Again and More

Not a very exciting week in College Football. #1-3 had the week off leaving Boise State as the highest rank team to play this weekend. They would easily beat Fresno State, 51-0. Kellen Moore threw for 333 yards, 4 TDs and 1 INT. Boise State will play #18 Nevada who just beat New Mexico State, 52-6. The Broncos' last real test of the year comes from within there own conference. Who would've thought that.

As for the rest of the top teams, Ohio State managed to beat Iowa, 20-17, thanks to a late TD by Dan Herron. The Buckeyes manage to stay alive for the Big 10 Title. So does Wisconsin as they beat Michigan, 48-28. The Badgers manage to hold off a rally by the Wolverines and stay in the race. Lastly, the Michigan State Spartans stay with Wisconsin and Ohio State at the top beating Purdue, 35-31. The Spartans late win keeps their BCS Hopes alive.

The Bay Area saw the "Big Game" come by again with it being held in Berkeley. It was no contest for Stanford as they reclaim the Axe, 48-14. Andrew Luck keeps going with 235 passing yards and 2 TD passes along with 72 yards on the ground. A big chunk of that came on a 58 yard run in which Luck took down a defensive player in the process. The upset of the day came when Texas A&M beat Nebraska, 9-6. The Aggies were able to take advantage of this defensive stand and beat the Cornhuskers. Arkansas manages to beat out Mississippi State in double OT, 38-31. Crazy first OT with a fumble and missed field goal somehow leads to Arkansas winning.

Maybe not the best weekend for College Football but the top 2 teams come back next week with big games: #1 Oregon will play against #22 Arizona and #2 Auburn will face #11 Alabama. Last call for an upset?
