EmailPrintOpen Extended ReactionsThe biggest game of the season so far lived up to expectations, with Texas avenging last year's loss to Ohio State by mounting a second-half comeback to win the second leg of the home-and-home. That also, obviously, had an implication for this week's rankings, with the Buckeyes vacating the top spot in the poll and the Longhorns replacing them. There was noise elsewhere in the top ten, with Oregon losing unexpectedly to Oklahoma State. Next week, there'll be more action with top ten foes LSU and Ole Miss facing off in Oxford.Stats courtesy of ESPN Research.All times ET.1.
