Two old Pac-12 rivals turned Big Ten foes face each other in Week 13's highest-profile game. The Oregon Ducks host the USC Trojans in what will serve as a College Football Playoff elimination game for both teams.

If the Crimson Tide win the conference championship with two losses, where the selection committee ranks them will be notable against their league foes.

Greg Sankey walked into a back room in the Georgia press box Saturday night, where a television was playing the end of Oklahoma’s upset of Alabama. A result that only bolstered the SEC’s chances to get five teams — maybe more — in the College Football Playoff.

Coming off their best win of the season, the Red Raiders should advance two spots in Tuesday night's new rankings. No. 3 in game control with the most favorable slate left among title contenders, Texas Tech should cruise the rest of the way to conference championship weekend. Last week's ranking: No. 8

The new SEC Power Rankings are here after a chaotic week. Oklahoma's huge win over Bama has completely shaken up the top 10, while Kentucky continues to climb.
