Nov. 8 at Arizona State 55, Notre Dame 31 
And You Care Because … Five takeaways helped Arizona State get up early and survive a late rally. The Sun Devils roared to a 34-3 lead with Taylor Kelly throwing two touchdown passes including a 13-yarder to Jaelen Strong and a 43-yard play to Cameron Smith, and the defense got into the act with Damarious Randall returning an interception 59 yards for a score. It was all Notre Dame for most of the second half with Everett Golson throwing two touchdown passes and Cam McDaniel running for two one-yard scores as part of a 28-point run, but after a 25-yard Amir Carlisle catch to pull the Irish within three, ASU answered with a five-play scoring drive finishing off with Demario Richard’s second touchdown of the day. Notre Dame’s last gasp was thwarted by a Lloyd Carrington pick six, and Kelly finished it off with a two-yard scoring run.

Nov. 8 Oregon 51, at Utah 27 
And You Care Because … Utah was up 7-0 on an eight-yard Bubba Poole run, and appeared to be going up 14-0 as Kaelin Clay took a pass 78 yards, but he celebrated too early, dropping the ball before crossing the goal line. Oregon’s Joe Walker ended up picking up the ball in the end zone and took it 100 yards for a score. That sparked a run of 24 straight Duck points with Marcus Mariota throwing two short touchdown passes and Aldan Schneider hitting a 39-yard field goal. Utah didn’t go away, with Andy Phillips hitting three field goals and Devonte Booker taking a pass 27 yards for a score to pull within seven, and a Westlee Tonga 13-yard scoring catch pulled the Utes within three in the fourth.
