Welcome to the Week 11 edition of our weekly illustrations focusing on the games that shape the national title race.
USC continued its hot streak by controlling No. 4 Washington 24-13 and putting the Huskies' playoff hopes in doubt.
The Wolverines fell short in only their second trip outside the state of Michigan. Before the game, Jim Harbaugh's crew covered up the pink walls in the visitor's locker room, but the Hawkeyes had the last laugh, winning 14-13.
The Tigers have had a few close calls this year but always found a way. This time, Deshaun Watson's three interceptions were too much for Dabo Swinney's squad to overcome, as it fell 43-42 to Pitt.
The Iron Bowl was shaping up to be an epic, with Alabama and Auburn playing for the SEC West crown and a clear shot at a playoff berth. But the Bulldogs had something to say about that, earning a 13-7 win over the Tigers.
