We’ve passed the midseason mark, so the games are gaining importance by the week. We could look back at Week 7 as a turning point in the season for several teams.

Saturday's slate featured four ranked vs. ranked matchups and the biggest showdown of the day did not disappoint.

Michael Penix Jr. got the better of Bo Nix in the Heisman duel, throwing four touchdowns to Nix's two in the win.

No. 14 Louisville fell from the unbeaten ranks after its own big win a week ago. And Jimbo Fisher's seat may be getting a lot hotter after another road loss in a winnable game against No. 19 Tennessee.
