Texas A&M's Comeback, Alabama's Loss Shake Up Playoff
•
Week twelve in college football delivered unexpected twists, despite a relatively calm overall outcome. Seven top twenty-five teams lost, with four of those games featuring ranked opponents. The most astonishing upset was Texas A&Ms comeback, overcoming a thirty-point halftime deficit to win thirty-one to thirty. This victory saved their undefeated season, while South Carolina missed a chance for their second conference win.
Two top ten teams, Texas and Alabama, also suffered losses, shaking up the playoff picture. Alabamas second loss, to Oklahoma, could spark controversy in their playoff seeding. Oklahoma, with two losses, might benefit from their head-to-head win over the Crimson Tide.
Oregon Ducks, currently ranked number eight, secured a dominant forty-two to thirteen victory, which should boost their playoff standing and national title odds. As the season progresses, every game will be crucial for teams aiming for the championship.
