Week 10 and Again a New #1

Man i feel like a broken record as once again the old #1 was dethroned to be replaced by a new #1. This time it is was Auburn falling from the #1 to the #2 spot despite dominating Ole Miss 53-31. Oregon will take over as the #1 after crushing USC 53-32 in a game that was supposed to be a fairly close game. Oregon seems unstoppable on offense and it looks like they will have a good chance to win the remainder of their games. Their only two sort of challenges will be at California and home against Arizona.

Also over the weekend two more unbeatens were defeated as Missouri and Michigan State. Michigan State although they had really only played one competitive team against Wisconsin (Michigan State won 34-24) they had risen to the #5 and they seemed to be on fire. But it probably comes as a surprise to almost no one, except maybe Michigan State fans, that they were crushed by Iowa 37-6. Iowa held Michigan State to 31 yards on the ground and outgained Michigan State 352-258 in total yards. Michigan State also had three turnovers to Iowa's 0. Michgan State fell to #14.

Missouri was beaten 31-17 by the Nebraska Cornhuskers. Missouri just got ran over as Nebraska RB Roy Helu Jr. piled up a school single game record with 307 yards on the ground (also the most rushing yards by any player this year). Nebraska's star QB Taylor Martinez did not even play in the second half as he suffered from a bruised right leg. That did not change the fact that the Missouri defense got trampled and Missouri fell to #12 in the BCS rankings.
