On paper, the Week 2 slate featured just one game between ranked opponents after an absolutely loaded Week 1. But you can never count out an unexpected upset or three in a weekend like this.<\/p>\n

The intrigue started early on Saturday as Iowa State beat Iowa in the CyHawk rivalry game<\/a> with a late field goal and Arch Manning showed out in a get-right game against San Jose State<\/a> with a five-touchdown performance. Elsewhere, No. 11 Illinois scored an impressive road win at Duke<\/a> and Baylor upset No. 17 SMU in double overtime<\/a>.<\/p>\n
