10. Utah: The win over Stanford was satisfying, but the bottom line is the Utes, after starting 0-4 in Pac-12 play the previous two years, are now 1-4 in conference play. The obvious key to turning things around? Getting QB Travis Wilson (http://espn.go.com/college-football/player/_/id/531051/travis-wilson) healthy and back to form, so it's a good time for a bye week. The visit from Arizona State on Nov. 9 has the potential to be a telling game for both teams.

Some other interesting games this week:

Wisconsin @ Iowa. After OSU, this is the closest thing to a tough conference game that Wisconsin has. Gary Anderson is still on track for a 10 win season. Anything less would be a disappointment against his schedule.

Michigan @ MSU. Winner is frontrunner for division.

West Va @ TCU. The CU vs Utah of the Big12.

Boise St @ CSU. Broncos haters can relish Boise's first down year in forever.

Miami @ FSU. Two unbeatens.

Hail Mary! What a play. The football gods rewarded me for sitting through an ugly 4th quarter.
