Alabama remonta para ganar a Arkansas con un grandísimo partido de Mark Ingram (158 yardas y 2 TDs), Texas ha caido ante UCLA en su propio feudo de Austin por culpa de sus turnovers, Stanford tumba a Notre Dame, Michigan pierde a sus dos quarterbacks principales en su victoria ante Bowling Green (aunque parece que Denard Robinson no tiene nada serio) y Terrell Pryor, con 6 touchdowns, firma una nueva victoria de Ohio State. Además Boise State salva los muebles y sobrevive a sus errores para acabar superando a Oregon State. Estos han sido los resultados de la tercera semana en la NCAA:
