Finally, thanks to No. 3 Louisville and No. 5 Clemson, we were treated to a highly anticipated showdown that lived up to its billing. With two teams featuring superstar quarterbacks and national championship aspirations, playing in a raucous atmosphere in Death Valley, the 2016 college football season kicked into another gear.?Weve seen plenty of quality matchups between ranked teams in the first month of the season, but we hadnt yet watched two really, really good teams battle all the way to a nerve-wracking, dramatic ending, with high stakes in their conference-title race as well as for their places in the College Football Playoff.?We saw all of that and more in Clemsons 42-36 victory, which ended with Tigers cornerback?Marcus Edmond knocking Cardinals receiver James Quick out of bounds at the Clemson 3-yard line on fourth down -- 1 yard short of a first down with 33 seconds to play.We want to be 12-0 and you cant win 12 until you win five, Clemson coach Dabo Swinney said. At the end of the day, you either have the heart or you dont. You either have the will to win or you dont.Louisvilles loss was crushing but probably doesnt entirely end its playoff hopes, depending on what happens in the other Power 5 leagues.If you were looking for starker examples of those crushing moments of fan disbelief, Saturday provided them. In college football, we have a name for those moments of utter incredulity -- Surrender Cobra -- and none was more indelible than what happened in the final seconds of No. 11 Tennessees 34-31 victory over No. 25 Georgia at Sanford Stadium.After blowing a 17-point lead, the Bulldogs trailed 28-24 before freshman quarterback Jacob Eason fired a 47-yard touchdown to freshman Riley Ridley down the left sideline to regain the lead, 31-28 with 10 seconds left.Almost immediately, several Tennessee fans locked their hands above their heads, which has become the universal sign of disbelief when a team makes a disastrous play or an opponent does something amazing.What happened next resulted in a rare double Surrender Cobra. During Georgias celebration, a player ran onto the field without his helmet, resulting in a 15-yard penalty. The Bulldogs were also penalized for being offside on the ensuing kickoff, and the Volunteers returned the short pooch kick to Georgias 43-yard line.With only four seconds left, Tennessee quarterback Joshua Dobbs fired a Hail Mary into the end zone. Receiver Jauan Jennings was surrounded by five Georgia defenders, but somehow came down with the ball for a 43-yard touchdown, giving the Volunteers an improbable victory that wont soon (if ever) be forgotten.Sick way to end the game, obviously, Bulldogs coach Kirby Smart said.Tennessee erased a big deficit to win for the second week in a row and took control of the SEC East. While its probably premature to include the Volunteers in the upper echelon of playoff contenders with the likes of No. 1 Alabama and No. 2 Ohio State, it has becoming increasingly clear that this very well might be their year after largely suffering disappointment for more than a decade.I thought we had a chance, Tennessee coach Butch Jones said. Its one of those moments in time that youll remember forever. Ive also been on the other end of them, too, and you remember them forever. I think its a great illustration that you play until the clock hits zeros.Ask Florida State fans about that. North Carolinas Nick Weiler kicked a 54-yard field goal as time expired to give the Tar Heels a 37-35 victory, which ended the Seminoles 22-game home winning streak. Making matters worse, FSU fans had to suffer through the worst kind of Surrender Cobra. After winning the game, North Carolinas long-haired kicker ran through Doak Campbell Stadium taunting fans. Talk about a gut punch.Iowa State fans also suffered mightily from the cruelest kind of Surrender Cobra -- the one brought on by succumbing to false hope. The Cyclones had a 14-point lead over No. 13 Baylor going into the fourth quarter, but the Bears scored the games final 17 points to escape with a 45-42 victory. Chris Callahan kicked a 19-yard field goal on the final play to keep Baylor undefeated.I dont know what changed, Iowa State coach Matt Campbell said. I just think a couple of guys had chances to make plays and just didnt make them.Speaking of false hope, Utah fans had to be feeling pretty confident in the final seconds at California. With the Bears leading 28-23, the Utes had first-and-goal at the Cal 2 with 14 seconds left. But the Bears defense somehow held Utah out of the end zone on three straight plays, stuffing?Zack Moss?for no gain as time expired.A tough game to lose but proud of our guys for how they hung in there and fought back, just like weve done many times previously in the season, Utes coach Kyle Whittingham said. Were just one play away there.Imagine how Texas fans feel. They had to watch in total surrender as the No. 22 Longhorns failed to make even the most basic of plays, like extra points. Oklahoma State blocked three point-after kicks, returning one of them for two points, in a 49-31 victory.The loss drops Texas to 2-2 and puts coach Charlie Strong back on the hot seat. The Cowboys 49 points were their most ever scored against Texas, which has given up at least 45 points in three of its first four games for the first time in school history.Texas performance was so bad coming off a bye week that interim athletic director Mike Perrin told reporters he would evaluate everything about the program.We still have a lot of work to do, Strong said. We still have a long way to go. We told our guys this isnt enough. We had three field goals and extra points blocked, and it was just right up the pipe. ... Weve got some work to do, and we just have to get it done.Playoff teams after Week 51. Alabama: The Tide got off to a slow start against Kentucky, but eventually broke through in a 34-3 win over the Wildcats. Freshman quarterback Jalen Hurts completed 20 of 33 passes for 262 yards with two touchdowns to Calvin Ridley, who caught 11 passes for 174 yards.2. Ohio State: The Buckeyes demolished Rutgers 58-0, outgaining the Scarlet Knights by 553 yards of total offense. It was Urban Meyers fifth shutout of at least 50 points, the most by an Ohio State coach since the end of World War II.3. Clemson: After the Tigers beat Louisville, Dabo Swinney now has 14 wins over AP-ranked opponents, second only to Danny Ford (18) in school history. The Tigers travel to Boston College on Friday.?4. Michigan: The Wolverines were far from perfect in their 14-7 win over Wisconsin, which was their first victory over an AP top-10 team since beating the No. 9 Badgers in 2008. Michigans defense was salty, though, holding Wisconsin to 88 passing yards and 71 rushing.Next four in contention1. Washington: The Huskies clobbered Stanford 44-6 on Friday night to take control of the Pac-12 North. It was Washingtons biggest win over an AP top-10 opponent since shutting out No. 5 USC 31-0 in 1990. The Huskies will try to end a 12-game losing streak against Oregon in Eugene next week.2. Houston: The Cougars atoned for their only loss last season, beating Connecticut 42-14 on Thursday night. Houstons defense had four sacks, and the Cougars probably wont be tested until their Nov. 17 showdown against Louisville.3. Tennessee: The Vols trailed by as many as 17 points at Georgia, and theyre now 4-0 in games in which they trailed by at least two touchdowns during the past two seasons. They erased a 21-point lead against Florida last week, a 14-point deficit against Virginia Tech earlier this season and a 21-point hole against Georgia last season.4. Texas A&M: The Aggies improved to 5-0 for the third straight season with a 24-13 win at South Carolina. Its the first time theyve started 3-0 in the SEC since joining the conference in 2012 and their first such start in any league since going 4-0 in the Big 12 in 2004. They host Tennessee next week.Heisman candidates1. Lamar Jackson, QB, Louisville: Jackson led Louisville to scores on its first five drives of the second half and had 135 of his 162 rushing yards after halftime. The Cardinals came up empty on their final two drives, however, as Clemson came back to win 42-36. Jackson finished with 457 total yards and three touchdowns.2. Deshaun Watson, QB, Clemson: In the first quarter, Watson completed 1 of 6 passes for 1 yard. In the final three quarters, he was responsible for 369 yards and five touchdowns, becoming the third player in the past five seasons to pass for over 300 yards and five touchdowns, and rush for 91 yards against a ranked opponent in the Tigers win over Louisville.?3. Greg Ward Jr., QB, Houston: Ward was nearly perfect against UConn on Thursday night, completing 32 of 38 passes for 389 yards with three touchdowns and also rushing for 65 yards with two scores. He has accounted for 13 touchdowns in four games.4. J.T. Barrett, QB, Ohio State: Barrett set an Ohio State record for career touchdowns by throwing four more against Rutgers. Barrett has now thrown 59 touchdowns in 27 career games. It was also his seventh game with at least four touchdown passes, another OSU record.Tweets of the nightBest momentsBest playsWorst playsQuotes of the night1. Thats something we practice every week -- last-play defense. You put your best jumpers in the end zone and everybody gets up and gets the ball down. We do drills to rep it. Their kid just went up and got it. -- Georgia coach Kirby Smart2. A wise man once said, You even have to bring your ugly babies home from the hospital, and that was ugly. In fact, that might have been what someone told my dad when I was born. But I feel really good that our guys found a way to win. -- Florida coach Jim McElwain, after the No. 23 Gators won 13-6 at Vanderbilt.3. You want the kids to see results. I thought over the last four weeks -- that September is one I dont want to remember -- but they put so much work in to see results. To come home after a tough loss to Utah, I commend our staff in helping the kids to keep believing and keep getting better, and it paid off today. -- USC coach Clay Helton, after the Trojans 41-20 win over previously unbeaten Arizona State4. We said, Hey, we think were going to get them stopped. [Defensive coordinator Art Kaufman] told me, Were going to get this. Were going to get them stopped, and he was right. -- California coach Sonny Dykes, on his defenses goal-line stand to beat Utah, in which the Bears kept the Utes out of the end zone on seven plays inside the Cal 10-yard line.Stats that matter1. 1-130: FBS teams that trailed by 14 points or more in the fourth quarter had a 1-130 record this season, according to ESPN Stats & Info. No. 13 Baylor trailed 42-28 with less than 12 minutes to play at Iowa State, but scored the final 17 points to escape with a 45-42 victory.2.?634: LSU had 634 yards of offense in a 42-7 win over Missouri in Ed Orgerons first game as interim coach.

LOUIS -- Theres no telling how these wacky World Series games will end. The Cleveland Browns are the lone remaining winless team in the NFL.The Cincinnati Bengals are part of a different list -- considered one of the leagues biggest underachievers.The Bengals (2-4) have dropped four of their past five games and attempt to break out of their doldrums when they host the lowly Browns (0-6) on Sunday (1 p.m. ET, CBS).Cincinnati expects to be part of the postseason for the sixth consecutive season but the slow start threatens to halt that streak.The Bengals edged the New York Jets in their opener before things disintegrated. Three of Cincinnatis losses have been by 12 or more points, including last Sundays 35-17 setback against the New England Patriots.Were kind of behind right now, with the way this season has gone, and weve got to get it back on track, quarterback Andy Dalton said. You cant try to do too much, youve just got to play your game and do that to the best of your ability. You cant try to do more than you need to. Thats the biggest thing: you cant press.Bengals coach Marvin Lewis has been preaching that theres no reason to panic. He outlined to his squad to just stay the course and, well, play better.We have to play good fundamental football, Lewis said. We have to out-play the other team, out-execute them, out-score them and not have negative plays. Our margin for error has not been very good thus far this season so we have to create our breaks.First-year Cleveland coach Hue Jackson, a close friend of Lewis who spent the past four seasons on Cincinnatis coaching staff, can relate to a lack of breaks.The Browns are on their third quarterback in rookie Cody Kessler after losing Robert Griffin III (shoulder) and Josh McCown (collarbone) to injuries. Cleveland suffered a big defensive loss when free safety Jordan Poyer suffered a lacerated kidney in last Sundays 28-26 loss to Tennessee.He was playing well, Jackson said of Poyer. Its is a blow for us because he is one of our better players.Kessler enjoyed a strong performance in the loss to the Titans by passing for 336 yards and two touchdowns.The former USC standout was a third-round draft pick due to questions about his arm strength. He said he isnt concerned with what the critics say but is fixated on how to help end Clevelands longstanding losing ways -- which includes nine consecutive losses and 16 of 17 dating back to October of last season.dddddddddddd.I take it very personal, as do a lot of guys in this locker room, Kessler said of the losses. It just makes you compete that much harder and keep working harder because we have been really close in some of these games.We just have to put together a full game and I have to put together a full game and a complete game and just continue to keep working. Obviously, it will get to you, but you cant let it knock you down. You cant let it knock you back. You have to stay positive and keep moving forward.The Browns are averaging 110.7 yards per game on the ground but have struggled the past two games -- averaging just 33.5 yards in losses to the Titans and New England Patriots.Cincinnati ranks ninth in defending the run (89.8) and dodged a bullet when controversial linebacker Vontaze Burfict was fined $75,000 on Wednesday but didnt draw a suspension for an incident against New England last Sunday.Burfict was disciplined for delivering an apparent stomp to Patriots running back LeGarrette Blount during a pileup of players. Burfict reportedly is appealing the fine and Lewis is supporting him.We were not in the wrong here, in my opinion, Lewis said. And its unfortunate. Thats what I have told and stood on and will continue to.Burfict missed the first three games of this season due to a suspension for his repeated violations of safety rules, including his actions during last seasons playoff loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers.Defensive end Carlos Dunlap (four sacks) has played well for the Bengals, who will look to silence a Cleveland offense averaging 18.8 points, tied for 26th in the NFL.Cincinnatis offense is faring worse at 18.2 points per game (29th) despite Dalton ranking third in the NFL with 1,757 passing yards and receiver A.J. Green corralling an NFL-best 42 catches.The Bengals could have standout tight end Tyler Eifert at their disposal for the first time this season. Eifert, who caught 13 touchdown passes last season, returned to practice on Wednesday after missing the first six games due to ankle and back injuries.
