Top 25: Week 12

Week 11 had some upsets, mostly in the ACC with Virginia and Louisville losing at home. It would have been a crazy week if Indiana and Oregon lost on the road in their conference matchups, but they both

pulled out last-minute wins. In the SEC, Alabama, Texas A&M, and Vanderbilt all picked up big conference wins. Texas Tech look like the best team in the Big XII with their home win over previously undefeated BYU.
