- Instant College Football Classic: The 78th edition of the Iron Bowl was easily the best to date, as the Tigers came away with an improbable win over the Crimson Tide by returning a missed field goal all the way back for the game-winning touchdown on the game's final play. We break down how Auburn managed to pull the upset, and debate where the ending ranks among the greatest finishes in the history of college football.

- Newest BCS Rankings: With their miraculous win this weekend, not only did the Tigers vault themselves into the national title picture, they busted the BCS wide open, with as many as six teams still potentially in play for Pasadena entering conference championship week. Do the undefeated Buckeyes deserve to be ranked ahead of Auburn with one loss? Can Mizzou leapfrog Alabama with a victory in the SEC Championship? We'll tell you.

- Week 13 in the NFL: The thirteenth week of the NFL season saw several intriguing matchups on the schedule, including Peyton and the Broncos traveling to Arrowhead for their rematch with the Chiefs, the Eagles hosting the Cardinals in a battle of two surprise teams, and the Saints invading Seattle on Monday Night Football in an affair pitting the two top squads in the NFC against one another. We analyze these games and more in our NFL recap segment.

Plus:

Officials botching calls, coaches on the field, allegations of spying (again), and a new man at the helm for USC!
