-------------------------------


* Good week if you like overtime games. Six contests needed more than 60 minutes to decide the victor.

* Both the #1 and #2 teams went down, as did Missouri, Cincinnati and Connecticut. Now only six unbeaten teams remain: Ohio St, South Florida, Boston College, Arizona St, Kansas and Hawaii.

* On the flip side of the coin, North Texas won its first game. Now only four winless teams remain: Colorado St, Marshall, Utah St and FIU.

* The Big Ten has seven teams with a 5-2 record, more than all of the other conferences combined (6).

* Speaking of the Big Ten, Indiana and Illinois came crashing back down to Earth this weekend, although in Illinois' defense, Iowa is a difficult place to win. On the other hand, Indiana just got smoked by Michigan St.

* USC continues to play teams close, much like they did last year. I expect them to lose at least one more game this season.

* Wisconsin and Texas A&M both were beat bad by teams that were generally regarded as being at the same level as them.

* Louisville is going to be one of those teams that aggravates me all season. They are capable of beating anybody, but they are also capable of losing to anybody.
