Week 5 of the college football season<\/a> featured several ranked SEC matchups, and they all lived up to the hype.<\/p>\n

No. 11 Ole Miss<\/a> had potentially the biggest win of the day, defeating No. 4 LSU 24-19 in Oxford, Mississippi, behind a 300-yard passing performance from Trinidad Chambliss. The Rebels’ defense limited Garrett Nussmeier to 197 passing yards.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, No. 16 Alabama<\/a> held off No. 3 Georgia with a 24-21 win<\/a> in Athens, Georgia. The Crimson Tide jumped out to a 14-0 lead and led wire-to-wire to beat the Bulldogs for the second straight season, despite having zero second-half points.<\/p>\n

Elsewhere, No. 9 Texas A&M staved off a late upset push from Auburn to earn a 16-10 win<\/a> at College Station, Texas, while No. 15 Tennessee needed an overtime stop to hold off an upset bid by Mississippi State.<\/p>\n

No. 19 Missouri cruised to a 42-6 win over UMass, while Diego Pavia had a six-touchdown performance against Utah State in a 55-35 Commodores<\/a>‘ victory. Arkansas lost 56-13 to No. 21 Notre Dame. No. 7 Texas and No. 10 Oklahoma had their bye week this week, earning a much-needed rest for both programs.<\/p>\n
