Despite a seemingly lackluster slate of games, college football met its craziness quota with upsets and near-upsets involving many of the teams in the middle of the race for the national championship.
Another is Cincinnati, which is making things more and more difficult for even its most ardent defenders by struggling to put away Tulsa.
And a fourth is Wake Forest, which was the lone unbeaten team in the ACC and the league's only hope for the College Football Playoff. The Demon Deacons can still reach a New Year's Six bowl but have very small odds of finishing in the top four after losing in a shootout to North Carolina.
