The biggest game of the weekend had to have been The Red River Rivalry. With Texas as the favorites in this game, they let it slip and Sooner’s quarterback Dillion Gabriel made the game winning touchdown pass to Nic Anderson with 15 seconds remaining. Oklahoma came out on top 34-30 and elevated themseleves up to No. 2 and the Longhorns hold steady at No. 5.
In the Pac-12, UCLA found themselves down to No. 15 Washington State at halftime, but totally rallied for the win in the second half. With the Bruins defense picking off the Cougars quarterback Cameron Ward 2 times, winning 25-17 and knocking Washington State out of the top 25 and establishing thmesleves as No. 25 this week.
