In the first weekend of action after the College Football playoff rankings were announced on Tuesday, Nov. 5 fans were treated to a pair of match ups between undefeated top-25 teams. Both games, No. 2 LSU versus No. 3 Alabama and No. 4 Penn State versus No. 17 Minnesota, had massive postseason implications and both games lived up to the hype with neither being decided until the final drive. In a game that featured the two leading contenders for the Heisman Trophy in quarterbacks Tua Tagovailoa and Joe Burrows, running back Najee Harris, six first or second round pick wide-receivers and a slew of defensive players sure to find a home on Sundays the level of NFL caliber talent taking the field in Tuscaloosa on Saturday was almost unfathomable.
