The Oklahoma Sooners defeated the Tennessee Volunteers 33-27 on Saturday night in what is believed to be a playoff elimination game in the sense that the losing team would be removed from the playoff picture. In odd fashion, Tennessee led in most statistical categories, but timely turnover plagued the Vols down the stretch.

Three teams near of the top of the AP Top 25 college football poll came up short this weekend, setting the stage for a shuffle in the top 10.

That resulted helped the Horns fly all the way up to No. 13 in this week's poll.
