Week 10 of the college football season is in a giving mood. We've already had a robust #MACtion slate on Wednesday.
Now the Pac-12 is back, albeit with a couple of cancellations.
With no on-site tailgating allowed for Florida-Georgia, expect some cocktails but not much in the way of a party.
And this is easily the biggest ACC game in Notre Dame history against No. 1 Clemson. See? What a week.

Top 25 takeaways and schedule
The Thundering Herd came into their game against UMass not asking whether or not they'd win the game, but by how much. They finished with a 41-point victory, where QB Grant Wells completed 21 of his 30 passes for 228 yards and three touchdowns. Brenden Knox led Marshall on the ground with 118 yards and two touchdowns. Basically, Marshall did all the things you want to see in a week like this. -- Harry Lyles Jr.
No. 13 Indiana 38, No. 23 Michigan 21
The Hoosiers have now beaten multiple ranked teams in one season for the first time since 2004. Their victory over Penn State came down to the wire, but against Michigan, the Hoosiers seemed to be in full control the entire game. Quarterback Michael Penix Jr. made some impressive throws and carved up Michigan's secondary with 342 yards and three touchdowns. Indiana is now sitting at 3-0 and tied for first place in the division.
For Michigan, the Wolverines' defense surrendered 460 yards to Indiana. Their secondary continues to be an issue and was on display in this game. If the defense can't figure out how to improve, it's not going to get any easier the rest of the schedule. That said, Michigan's offense only had 13 rush yards on 18 attempts and couldn't get anything going on offense until the fourth quarter. -- Tom VanHaaren
No. 20 USC, Arizona State 27
The Trojans looked dead in the water for much of the second half but finally woke up -- in a game that started at 9 a.m. local time -- late in the fourth quarter to avoid an opening-week disaster. Receiver Drake London has the makings of a breakout star -- it was his touchdown catch on fourth down with 1:20 left to give the Trojans the lead, capping an eight-catch, 125-yard performance. -- Kyle Bonagura
No. 22 Texas 17, West Virginia 13
The Longhorns' defense stepped up in a big way to secure this one. West Virginia, trailing by four, twice had fourth quarter, fourth-and-short situations in the red zone and Texas turned them away both times. Offensively, in the absence of starting RB Keaontay Ingram, true freshman Bijan Robinson shined, rushing for 113 yards, averaging 9.4 yards per rush. Robinson is the first Texas running back to surpass the 100-yard mark this season. -- Sam Khan Jr.
This game was much closer than it looked -- the Mustangs trailed at the half and led by only four going into the fourth. But a 27-point fourth quarter put it away for the Ponies. Shane Buechele (355 yards, four TDs) continued to excel and the SMU defense stepped up, holding Temple to under 400 yards, just 3.7 yards per rush and only 6-of-17 on third down. -- Sam Khan Jr.
No. 25 Liberty 38, Virginia Tech 35
Despite being two-touchdown underdogs, the Flames moved to 7-0 on the season with a 38-35 win over Virginia Tech in Blacksburg in the final seconds with a game-winning field goal. The Hokies were without the ACC's leading rusher in Khalil Herbert, who suffered a hamstring injury after the opening kickoff. It's the biggest win of the year for Liberty, who had beaten teams with a combined 4-28 record coming into Saturday. QB Malik Willis led the charge for the Flames with 209 yards passing and three touchdowns. The Hokies will be kicking themselves for this one. -- Harry Lyles Jr.
No. 9 BYU 51, No. 21 Boise State 17
A dominant win against a ranked opponent is exactly what BYU needed to validate its top-10 ranking. The Cougars have looked the part all year, however their soft schedule has served as a consistent disclaimer when comparing them against the nation's other top teams. That schedule still figures to be a significant hurdle for potential College Football Playoff consideration as BYU will be heavy favorites in their final two games against North Alabama and San Diego State.
For Boise State, considering BYU was playing its eighth game of the year and the Broncos just their third, this game always figured to be a difficult one. And that was before the Broncos were forced to rely on their third-string quarterback. Even though it was a lopsided defeat, Boise State still gets to return to conference play next week undefeated and deserves to be considered the favorite until further notice. -- Kyle Bonagura
No. 11 Miami 44, NC State 41
The Hurricanes found themselves trailing 41-31 early in the fourth quarter because of a combination of penalties, mistakes, a spry NC State attack and a special teams score. But they scored on three straight possessions, and their defense finally showed up, forcing two punts and clinching the game with a pick. The Canes didn't look amazing, but D'Eriq King certainly did: he threw for 430 yards (153 to Mike Harley) and five TDs while rushing for 105 more. He's been every bit as advertised. -- Bill Connelly

Reverse psychology in play from Clemson fans
Clemson fans really don't want Trevor Lawrence to leave after this season.
idk why they would threaten him like this but go off i guess lol https://t.co/ja4aZpleB7

Pac-12 is back and it feels so good
USC looked primed to lose its first game of the season, but the college football world was gifted with a little bit of Pac-12 After Dark in broad daylight with this onside kick recovery.
We recover the onside kick.
Offense back on the field.

So, for now, the Trojans' hopes of making the CFP remain alive.
USC deserves a lot of credit for not quitting in this game. They have to clean up the turnovers, though, if they are going to keep winning and be a CFP contender. You have to expect this kind of sloppiness in first game, though, given ... well, everything.

When icing the kicker doesn't go as planned
Virginia Tech was this close to winning after blocking Liberty's field goal attempt and returning it back for a touchdown ... but it didn't count because Justin Fuente called a timeout. And Liberty made the following kick to win.

Tyler Johnson did what he needed to do on the field with a sack, but from time to time, we all gotta excuse ourselves briefly.

Dabo Swinney took some time ahead of the Clemson Tigers' game in South Bend to tour the Notre Dame campus and get a photo in front of one of college football's greatest coaches.

The tour must have inspired something in Dabo because the Tigers' team movie Friday was another classic.
And yes, Clemson team movie tonight was Rudy.
