This past weekend delivered more chaos and drama than any weekend so far, with a string of overtime thrillers and high-stakes showdowns reshaping the playoff picture. It all began on Friday night in Charlottesville, where Virginia pulled off a double-overtime stunner over No. 8 Florida State, giving Tony Elliott the signature win of his tenure and shaking up the ACC race. Saturday kept the fireworks coming, as Lane Kiffin’s Ole Miss squad defended Oxford with a Magnolia Bowl triumph over LSU, while Alabama once again got the better of Kirby Smart and Georgia in a hard-fought SEC battle. The weekend’s crown jewel came under the lights of Penn State’s White Out, where Oregon silenced Beaver Stadium with a walk-off interception in double overtime, staking a claim as one of the nation’s top contenders in what might go down as the Game of the Year. With heavyweight clashes still looming in October, Week 5 not only reshuffled the rankings but also set the tone for what could be a season defined by razor-thin margins and dramatic finishes.
