Week 6 of the college football season didn't have as many marquee matchups on paper as Week 5 did.
But these are the weekends that will sneak up on you. Look no further than Penn State, who traveled to 0-4 interim-coach led UCLA and somehow managed to surrender over 400 yards and 42 points to the 134th-ranked scoring offense in the nation in front of a sparse home crowd at the Rose Bowl.
After an inconceivable loss for Penn State's James Franklin, expect it to be a pretty uncomfortable rest of the season in Happy Valley.
No. 3 Miami made a statement against No. 18 Florida State in Tallahassee, and No. 10 Alabama passed a tough home test against No. 16 Vanderbilt.
Meanwhile, Cincinnati rode a hot start on offense behind emerging quarterback Brendan Sorsby to an upset victory against No. 14 Iowa State.
Plenty of interesting results abound have caused a great deal of shakeup in this week's AP Top 25 projection.
