Week Seven brought another major upset in the Big Ten and the SEC. Iowa lost to Indiana; Vanderbilt beat Georgia snapping a 53 game losing streak to ranked teams. While this season has been kind of odd in that here have not been very many major upsets, the past two weeks have provided their fair share. The Auburn – Florida game lived up to the hype and went down to the last minute with Auburn winning the game. It was not without controversy either, which is another long running story this year. This week features two games that should get top billing. Texas travels to face Nebraska while Clemson hosts Georgia Tech in a battle for ACC supremacy.

(12) Clemson (-7.5) at (13) Georgia Tech
Georgia Tech has the best defense in the ACC. They shut down Notre Dame and have been dominant in each of their other games. Clemson has a chance to really take control of the ACC with a win. Clemson will win this game, but it will be closer than a Touchdown.

I'll skip the sob story and just say that if I pick a game one way, you have a better than even chance of being right if you pick it the other way.

ND scores with 27 seconds to go...wow. Looked like UCLA was gonna get the upset.
Hey, you're talking to a Bengals fan here, I feel your pain. Still hanging in after ummm, 30 plus years (am I that old?)
Thank goodness for my Buckeyes!
Nice how the Notre Dame clock operator started the clock well before the snap, even though the UCLA player went out of bounds on the kickoff.
America's most overrated team squeaks out a win at home against another half-ass team.
First Michigan State and now UCLA. One wonders how many times ND can luck games out against inferior competition...
The clock starts at the ref's signal now, not the snap.
It's one of the new stupid ass rules the NCAA put in.
Choke of the year: Is it Michigan State or UCLA vs. ND? Way to use the prevent defense UCLA!
me too
Michigan St.
Michigan State had a HUGE lead that they choked away. UCLA was within striking range for ND.
I'll see your Bengals and raise you a Texans....
One more UPset Alert
WASHINGTON 17
CAL 16
ND hasn't beaten a real team all year.
Not when the runner goes out of bounds, the rule didn't change for that.
I think it was Michigan St, although this was absolutely pathetic as well. ND is by far the most overrated team in the nation.
TD Boise State, 21-14 BSU 4:11 in the 2nd quarter.
sorry, it's the same for everyone.
The clock starts at the ready to play whistle.
