Week 7 of the 2024 college football season was exciting, to say the least. Several ranked matchups did not disappoint, led by Ohio State’s one-point loss to Oregon after Buckeyes quarterback Will Howard was unaware of the clock when running for the first down.
In the SEC, Texas A&M enjoyed the first of two bye weeks. Alabama and Tennessee were just a couple of plays away from losing their second consecutive game. Another loss would have likely eliminated both programs from a spot in the 12-team college football playoffs.
Even more interesting was the continued impressive play from the Vanderbilt Commodores, who are now 4-2 and 2-1 in SEC play after traveling to Lexington to defeat Kentucky 20-13 behind another impressive outing from duel-threat quarterback Diego Pavia.
Around the rest of the SEC, Texas obliterated Oklahoma 34-3 in the Red River Rivalry, while Ole Miss is now 5-2 and a dismal 1-2 in SEC play after falling to LSU in OT late into the night.
