No. 2 in the 30-second version

Colorado upsets No. 14 Houston 42-32, its first win over a top-15 team since 2007.

The Buffaloes trailed 20-7 in the second quarter, then scored four straight touchdowns on big plays by four different players and fans stormed the field at Folsom Field. Deion Sanders' job security was widely questioned before the win, and the Buffaloes improved to 4-6 overall and 2-5 in the Big 12. Colorado needs two more wins to become bowl eligible, and the win was its first over a top-15 opponent since 2007.

Ole Miss-Oklahoma game moves to Sunday after Ole Miss travel problems tied to Friday's FAA ground stop.

The SEC announced the game will kick off at 1 p.m. ET Sunday, Nov. 15, and the television network has not been determined. Oklahoma athletic director Roger Denny objected strongly, saying Commissioner Greg Sankey told the school that failing to play on Sunday would result in a forfeit.

Tennessee running back Daune Morris broke a leg in a car accident, reportedly ending his season.

ESPN reported Morris's injuries were non-life-threatening and the school announced the news. CBS Sports said Morris was second on the team in rushing, and Rocky Top Talk reported he had 66 carries for 434 yards and serves as the kick returner, a role that could go to Qua Moss.
