Upsets and Onside Kicks: Texas Gets Reality Check and Georgia Leaves No Doubt

Brien and AV wrap a wild Week 12 where Navy blew up USF's G5 playoff path, Notre Dame kept rolling, Oklahoma walked into Tuscaloosa and took Bama's lunch, and Georgia reminded Texas what real trench football looks like. Plus: Locksley stays at Maryland, Beamer gets grilled, and CouchCoachNation.com officially goes live.

What's inside:

• USF 38, Navy 41: Triple-option clinic, 1,000+ yards of offense, and a brutal missed opportunity that hands the G5 driver's seat to North Texas, Tulane, and James Madison.

• Notre Dame 37, Pitt 15: Irish dominance, Pitt's baffling field goal decision, and why Jeremiyah Love might be the best player in the country even if he won't win the Heisman.

• OU 23, Alabama 21: Turnovers, strip sacks, and how Venables' defense stole one despite getting outgained nearly 2-to-1.

• Georgia 35, Texas 10: Gunner Stockton's coming-out party, Texas getting bullied up front again, Kirby's perfectly-timed onside kick, and Brien's rant on SEC playoff bias.

• Coaching Carousel: Maryland backing Mike Locksley, Virginia Tech–James Franklin smoke, and Brien's "it's time" case against Shane Beamer at South Carolina.

• Purdue Problem: AV's tough-love questions for Barry Odom and whether the Boilermakers can claw out of a nine-game skid.
