  3. Dillon Gabriel Shines: Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel threw three touchdowns, moving to second in FBS history with 143 career passing scores, 12 behind Houston's Case Keenum.
  4. Penn State Rallies: Backup QB Beau Pribula led No. 3 Penn State to a 28-13 comeback win over Wisconsin after Drew Allar left the game. Allar's status remains up in the air ahead of the upcoming clash vs. Ohio State

  6. A&M Comeback: Texas A&M came back from a 17-7 halftime deficit to beat No. 8 LSU 38-23. Switching QBs from Conner Weigman to Marcel Reed did the trick.

  8. Indiana's Historic Run: Indiana remains undefeated under Coach Curt Cignetti with their 31-17 win over Washington. The Hoosiers did not need starting QB Kurtis Rourke to get off to their best start since 1967.
