It is now week ten and and number one Oregon and number two Auburn remain undefeated. Oregon ran the score up on Washington beating them 53-16 and Auburn clawed Chattanooga 62-24. Some of the more eye catching games of the week were 6 Alabama vs. 10 LSU, 7 Nebraska vs. Iowa St. and North Carolina vs. 24 Florida St.
Saturday afternoon Alabama took a visit to Baton Rouge with the hope of defeating the high ranked rival. In the first quarter things were very quiet. LSU were the first to drive down the field and convert with a field goal. In the second quarter, things were quiet once again with Alabama being the only ones to drive down and scoring a touchdown this was a one yard pass to Richardson. At half the game was close and could be anyones to win. The second half did wake up both teams. In the third quarter both teams put a touchdown on the board; the score is now 14-10 Alabama. In the fourth LSU went on a scoring spree they scored two field goals and a touchdown to lead Alabama 24-14. In the last minutes a touch down was scored by Alabama to make the score 24-21 LSU. The tigers ended up winning this sec battle and clinch the SEC.
The second game that was very interesting was number 7 Nebraska vs. the unranked Iowa St. This game really demonstrated the talent and strength of Iowa St. Nebraska drew first blood scoring a td in the first two minutes of the game. Iowa St. quickly responded and scored a td and a field goal in the first quarter making the score 10-7 Iowa St. In the second quarter it was all Nebraska. They scored two touchdowns to make the score 24-10 Nebraska. At half I am more than sure that Iowa St. made an adjustment because they were controlling and protecting the line and secondary. In the fourth quarter it was all Iowa St. they scored two touchdowns to tie the game at 24 and send it to over time. In overtime Nebraska scored a td first and made the extra point to make the score 31-24. When Iowa St. got the ball they scored but decided to go for two. Unfortunately it was failed and Nebraska won. This was a great game to the end and a wake up call for Nebraska.
The last game that seemed to be a very good one was North Carolina vs. 24 Florida St. When these two teams come out to play they always put on a show. They are both competing to lead in their devision and really battled it out. In the first quarter North Carolina showed that they came to play, they drew first blood and ended up leading the first quarter 14-7. FSU did reply and ended up leading in the end of the second quarter. FSU ended up scoring three touchdowns, two passing and one rushing; the tar-heels did score one passing touchdown in the second. The score entering the half was 28-21 FSU. In the second half the tar-heels dominated, they scored three field goals and a touchdown to defeat FSU 37-35.
