Week 5 turned out some gems and it was another great week of college football. While USC and Wisconsin remained the top 2 teams in the Nation, there were several teams that put on a show for the voters.

In the Game of the Week, the #11th ranked (and undefeated) Washington Huskies traveled to Eugene take on the #31st ranked (3-1) Oregon Ducks. This one was a nail-bitter, as the game had five lead changes; including two in the final minutes of the 4th quarter. In the end, the Ducks pulled out the 25-24 victory through the outstanding play of RB Phillip Begay (142 yards rushing, 60 receiving yards, and 3 TD's). It should not be overlooked that RB Richard Cherry (Washington Huskies) rushed for 156 yards and 2 TD's in the loss.

Other notable games/performances include:

Memphis Tigers (5-0) remained undefeated with a 41-34 win over SMU.
QB Paul Almeida (Rutgers) and QB Angel Stubbs (Nebraska) combined for 920 passing yards in a game won by the Scarlet Knights.
Mississippi State (5-0) topped Alabama (2-2) 24-20 leaving the Crimson Tide faithful to wonder just how this season might end up.
Stanford RB Samuel Cooper rushed for 216 yards and now leads the Nation with 1,031 yards.
Auburn (3-1) beat LSU (4-1) 27-15, meaning the SEC title is up for grabs this year.
