DOG EAT DOGAuburn scored on a blocked punt, a last-play fumble and a safety to beat No. 2 Florida 27-17 on Saturday night and leave the powerhouse Southeastern Conference without an unbeaten team. It was just another chapter in the topsy-turvy saga of SEC front-runners this season, with Auburn beating LSU, Arkansas beating then-No. 2 Auburn last week and Florida (6-1, 4-1) toppling Tennessee. The internal battering has threatened to leave the league without a strong national championship contender.
INJUREDHeisman Trophy hopeful Adrian Peterson broke his collarbone on a dive into the end zone Saturday and the Oklahoma star running back likely will miss the rest of the season. Peterson was injured on his last carry of the game — a 53-yard scoring run with 6:35 remaining that completed the 23rd-ranked Sooners' 34-9 win over Iowa State. Peterson ran for 183 yards and two touchdowns.
STUNNEDJames Hardy caught three touchdown passes, and quarterback Kellen Lewis produced his second straight fourth-quarter rally as Indiana upset No. 15 Iowa 31-28 on Saturday. It was the highest-ranked opponent the Hoosiers (4-3, 2-1 Big Ten) have beaten in nearly 20 years, dating to a 31-10 victory over No. 9 Ohio State on Oct. 10, 1987. ... Bryant Hahnfeldt kicked a 33-yard field goal with 2 seconds remaining and Vanderbilt pulled off a stunning upset, beating No. 16 Georgia 24-22. Vanderbilt, which lost its first three SEC games by a combined 12 points, defeated Georgia for the first time since 1994 and only the fourth time in their last 43 meetings.
SILENCEDFourth-ranked Michigan smothered Penn State's offense, and Adrian Arrington and Mike Hart each scored touchdowns to provide enough offense for Michigan to stay unbeaten with a 17-10 win on Saturday night. Michigan's front seven was too tough and fast for Penn State, getting into the backfield often to pressure or sack Nittany Lions starting quarterback Anthony Morelli, who was knocked out early in the third quarter after what appeared to be helmet-to-helmet hit from Alan Branch.
TOP GUNColt McCoy set a Texas record with six touchdown passes and the No. 6 Longhorns recovered from an early 10-point deficit to roll over Baylor 63-31 Saturday night, seizing sole possession of first place in the Big 12 South.
BUCKEDThe Ohio State defense battered and bruised Michigan State in a 38-7 victory Saturday. The Buckeyes (7-0, 3-0 Big Ten) narrowly missed a shutout, giving up a meaningless TD to the reeling Spartans (3-4, 0-3) late.
