Eastern Washington meets Utah Tech today, with both teams near the bottom of the Big Sky standings.
This article covers Eastern Washington's game, not the Huskies or Utes listed for this cluster. Eastern Washington is 2-8 overall and 1-6 in the Big Sky, and Utah Tech is 1-9 overall and 1-6 in conference. Utah Tech has run the ball more in its last two games, which the article ties to its two closest losses this season.
From Thursday
BYU hosts Baylor today at 1:30 PM MT, with the Cougars 7.5-point favorites.
According to Vanquish The Foe, BYU is ranked No. 10 in the College Football Playoff rankings after a 28-20 loss to Utah in the Holy War. Baylor fired head coach Dave Aranda midseason and has the same Big 12 record as BYU, and the article says a loss would end its path to Arlington while BYU's would likely send it to a bowl such as the Pop-Tarts or Alamo Bowl.

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.
