Week 7 was a wild one in college football. The season seemed to have a feel of a bunch of teams just moseying along to a crazy last few weeks when the big dogs start matching up against each other. Well, that got thrown out the window when there were several upsets of top ten teams by schools who were huge underdogs.
What are we left with? Alabama and a bunch of schools who've already suffered a loss (or could in the near future) attempting to join them in the College Football Playoff. Teams like Clemson, Washington and Washington State will need to get up off the mat, dust themselves off and focus on winning out if they want a shot at a national championship. Others, like Oklahoma, Ohio State, USC and Oklahoma State have renewed hope that they have a better chance at also being one of those teams standing at the end.
So this week's Players to Watch will focus on those players who will be key this week and beyond for those schools who still dream of grabbing a playoff spot as well as the guys who came up big in the biggest of moments.
