Another fun day of college football is upon us.
With four ranked vs. ranked matchups, there were plenty of opportunities for drama and a marquee early game to be delivered in every way possible. In the end, the Red River showdown was decided in the final seconds as Dillon Gabriel led No. 12 Oklahoma on a 75-yard drive to beat No. 3 Texas 34-30.
Out West, UCLA flexed some defensive muscle and stifled Cameron Ward and No. 13 Washington State, topping the previously undefeated Cougars 25-17.
In SEC, no. 23 LSU in a wild shootout against No. 21 on the road with a key win at Missouri and Alabama kept its positive momentum going in a crucial SEC West road game at Texas A&M, holding off a late Aggies rally to win in 26. -20.
Here’s what we need to watch out for during the late window. (Scroll down for live updates.)

Georgia, the two-time defending national champion, has won 22 straight games overall and 32 straight regular season games. However, the Bulldogs haven’t been very dominant at the start of the 2023 season. Kentucky is 5-0 and ranked 20th in the nation. Through four weeks, the Wildcats have looked shaky at times while playing in lower-level competition. Last week, Kentucky played its best game of the year in blowing out Florida behind a monster performance from Ray Davis. Will that strong effort continue enough to give top-ranked Georgia a scare?

Notre Dame is off to a 4-0 start, but its last two games have come down to the wire. Two weeks ago, the Irish lost a heartbreaker at Ohio State, and last week the Irish rallied 95 yards for a touchdown to keep their national title hopes alive. Louisville is off to a 5-0 start in its first season under Jeff Brohm, but Notre Dame represents a major step forward. The Cardinals have had some close wins against some mediocre teams and will need to play a very clean game to upset Notre Dame.
