Marque matchups. Top-25 flameouts. Game-losing field goal attempts. A game-opening onside kick returned for a touchdown. The reigning Heisman Trophy winner looking a bit green. And then there was Michigan State attempting to field a kickoff.
Twitter users responded Saturday to some of the unique sights, sounds and emotions of Week 7 of the college football season.
“Look at this, man” … “There is nothing like the sport of college football” …
Kirk Herbstreit: “I do Thursday Night NFL football and I love it, but you DO NOT get this unless it’s Saturday college football”

The Soft 12? …
It has been ROUGH for the New Big 12 members to say the least…
Today, Cincy lost to ISU 30-10 at home, and BYU suffered a 44-11 loss to TCU. 2 teams who likely won’t finish in the top half of the conference.
They are now a combined 2-10 in conference play, and 12-12 overall. pic.twitter.com/39BdWu1yTz

Crazy, crazy ending …
Must see:
The ending of WVU-Houston saw the Mountaineers take the lead on a 50yd TD with 12 seconds left to take the lead…only to lose when Houston threw a 49yd Hail Mary as time expired!
College football is the best 😍
