Can you believe we're already halfway through the season?
Well, Week 7 is here, and we're locking in to whatever happens on Saturday. Purdue upset No. 2 Iowa, Texas lost yet another lead, this time to Oklahoma State, as the Cowboys took down the Longhorns in Austin, LSU beat Florida for the second straight year, Oklahoma's quarterback change paid off and things got ugly in Lane Kiffin's return to Tennessee.
Check out all the results, reaction and revelry from throughout the land.

Touchdowns of the day
David Bell balled out against Iowa as the Boilermakers upset the Hawkeyes on the road.
And yes, the Boilermakers sure did do this.
We just beat the No. 2 out of Iowa.

Plays gone wrong
In a flurry of a lot of things that went awry, UConn managed to get a win.
Good heavens. UConn had a 21-point lead over Yale. Nearly blew it. On what should have been game-ending play, they had 12 men on field on defense. Flag. Extra untimed down. Hail Mary. They iced the game on a weird end zone INT. Finally end 721-day losing streak. #Bottom10 pic.twitter.com/ATiTqOHxO1

Warm reception for Lane Kiffin
Kiffin returned to Tennessee, where he had coached for one season before infamously leaving for USC, and the Volunteer faithful gave him a Bronx cheer.
It got ugly at the end, with fans throwing debris on the field, including a golf ball that caught Kiffin's elbow.
"Beep Beep" times two
UTSA stayed perfect in its 45-0 win over Rice, and a big part of that was the fact that the Roadrunners had not one, but two pick-sixes. Trevor Harmanson had a 40-yard interception return for a touchdown in the second quarter, aand early in the third, Corey Mayfield Jr. added one of his own.
