Texas jumps to No. 1 in AP Top 25 (AP)
Texas rode its resounding Red River Rivalry upset right to No. 1. The Longhorns leapfrogged No. 2 Alabama on Sunday and sit atop The Associated Press Top 25 in the regular season for the first time in 24 years after beating Oklahoma 45-35. Texas' jump to No. 1 is the largest since Miami went from No. 6 to No.


No. 11 Florida rips No. 4 LSU 51-21 (AP)
Tim Tebow jumped around and waved his arms high above his head as he jogged off the field late in the fourth quarter. Florida fans responded with chants of "Tebow, Tebow, Tebow." Tebow vowed to play harder following his last home game, a humbling home loss to Mississippi two weeks ago. The Heisman Trophy winner backed up that promise with his best game of the season Saturday night.


Oklahoma St. upends No. 3 Missouri 28-23 (AP)
Chase Daniel's Heisman Trophy stock just plummeted. Missouri's national championship hopes took a tumble, too. And how about them Oklahoma State Cowboys? No. 17 Oklahoma State stopped an offense that had been scoring at will, intercepting Daniel's passes three times in the second half and upsetting the third-ranked Tigers 28-23 victory on Saturday night.


Mississippi St. stuns No. 13 Vandy 17-14 (AP)
A late rally fueled by turnovers and defense -- sounds like yet another win for No. 13 Vanderbilt. Not so fast. Mississippi State handed the Commodores their first loss of the season, derailing the feel-good story of the year with a pair of second-half interceptions and smothering defense in a 17-14 victory on Saturday.


No. 7 Texas Tech gets by Nebraska in OT (AP)
Texas Tech cornerback Jamar Wall saw Nebraska's quarterback scramble and started to charge. Joe Ganz wanted to throw the ball out of bounds. He missed his target. "He basically threw it right to me," Wall said. Wall's pick preserved a 37-31 overtime victory for No. 7 Texas Tech against Nebraska on Saturday.


No. 6 Penn State crushes Wisconsin 48-7 (AP)
Forget the press box. Joe Paterno could have coached this one from his living room. A sore hip relegated Paterno to a perch high above the field for the second week in a row -- and once again, not having their iconic leader on the sidelines didn't matter to No. 6 Penn State. Daryll Clark threw for a touchdown and ran for two more scores, Derrick Williams ran a punt back for a touchdown and cornerback...


No. 8 USC routs Arizona St. again, 28-0 (AP)
Mark Sanchez passed for one touchdown and ran for another, and the Southern California defense dominated Arizona State in a 28-0 win Saturday. Joe McKnight ran for a career-high 143 yards on 11 carries and Kevin Thomas returned an interception 46 yards for a touchdown for the Trojans (4-1, 2-1 Pac-10), who extended their winning streak over the Sun Devils to nine games, winning by an average of...


Arkansas upsets No. 20 Auburn 25-22 (AP)
Arkansas found an offense it could stop, and a little running back No. 20 Auburn couldn't. The 5-foot-7 Michael Smith rushed for 176 yards on 35 carries and scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 63-yard run in the fourth quarter. The beleaguered Razorbacks defense then mounted two late defensive stops to preserve a 25-22 win over the Tigers on Saturday.


Hall leads No. 9 BYU to 16th straight (AP)
BYU had two firsts against New Mexico. Losing wasn't one of them. The ninth-ranked Cougars survived their lowest-scoring game of the season, beating New Mexico 21-3 on Saturday to extend the nation's longest winning streak to 16 straight. BYU (6-0, 2-0 Mountain West) remained unbeaten at the halfway point of the season, but needed Max Hall's 8-yard touchdown pass to Austin Collie with 3:05 left in...


Buckeyes overcome Pryor's erratic day (AP)
Asked to describe his team's offense in one word, Ohio State coach Jim Tressel thought a minute and said, "hit and miss." On a sloppy day for the No. 12 Buckeyes, even the coach had trouble narrowing down what was wrong. Special teams and defense held up their ends of the bargain, though, with Malcolm Jenkins blocking a punt and Etienne Sabino returning it 20 yards for a touchdown to lead the way...
