Notes:
-We focus on the losses that occured in the Top 25 for the week since if a Top 25 team wins, they were supposed to and that is not as noteworthy
-Occasionally top 25 teams play each other in which case we will note the winner of that game even if it was the lower ranked team since a top 25 team still lost.
-Since we start our recap on Sunday of the previous week and rankings are updated on Monday, it is possible the same team may be listed twice but with a different ranking in each listing if the team had a game on Sunday. This would be due to them moving up or down in the rankings on Monday.
-Rankings are based on ESPN/USA Today Coaches Poll rankings at the time the game was played.
