Scott Gleeson, USA TODAY
► No. 1 Alabama (1-0) steamrolled No. 17 Southern California (0-1), 52-6.
► No. 2 Clemson (1-0) held off Auburn (0-1), 19-13.
► No. 13 Houston (1-0) knocked off No. 3 Oklahoma (0-1), 33-23, in a statement victory that puts the Cougars in the College Football Playoff picture. BIT PREMATURE. AND SOONERS AREN'T OUT OF PLAYOFFS IF THEY RUN THE TABLE, INCLUDING OHIO STATE.
► No. 5 Ohio State (1-0) easily routed Bowling Green (0-1), 77-10.
► Wisconsin (1-0) upset No. 6 LSU (0-1), 16-14. SO MUCH FOR INFALLIBLE TOP OF THE SEC TEAMS.
► No. 7 Stanford (1-0) escaped Kansas State (0-1), 26-13. (Friday) AS LONG AS BILL SNYDER LIVES, K-STATE IS A TEAM NOT BE TAKEN LIGHTLY.
► No. 8 Michigan (1-0) ran over Hawaii (0-2), 63-3.
► No. 10 Tennessee (1-0) survived an upset bid by Appalachian State (0-1), 20-13. (Thursday) ROCKYTOP MUST BE LOADED WITH 4-LEAF CLOVERS. THE OTHER MOUNTAINEERS ARE INCREDIBLE, AND MAY RISE IN THE LITTLE FIVE RANKS.
► No. 11 Michigan State (1-0) defeated Furman (0-1), 28-13. (Friday)
► No. 14 TCU (1-0) defeated South Dakota State (0-1), 59-41.

► No. 22 Oregon (1-0) defeated UC-Davis (0-1), 53-28.
► No. 23 Louisville (1-0) obliterated Charlotte (0-1), 70-14. (Thursday)
► Texas A&M (1-0) outlasted No. 24 UCLA (0-1), 31-24, in overtime.
► No. 25 Florida (1-0) defeated UMass (0-1), 24-7.
OKLAHOMA LET DOWN THE BIG 12, BUT WVU, OKLAHOMA STATE, BAYLOR, KANSAS, TEXAS TECH AND TCU WON AND KANSAS STATE SHOWED SOME MOXIE AND MIGHT BE IN THE MIX IN THE MIDDLE OF THE PACK. IOWA STATE WAS BEING IOWA STATE. NOW IF TEXAS CAN TAKE DOWN NOTRE DAME TODAY, THE BIG 12 WILL HAVE A 7-3 START. NOT SEC LEVEL (WELL, MAYBE WITH LSU GOING DOWN, IT WAS), BUT CERTAINLY RIGHT UP THERE WITH THE OTHER POWER 5 CONFERENCES.
