College football Week 10 winners and losers: Arizona, Miami, Tennessee on top; Wake Forest tumbles - USA TODAY

Despite a seemingly lackluster slate of games, college football met its craziness quota with upsets and near-upsets involving many of the teams in the middle of the race for the national championship.

One is previously unbeaten Michigan State, which suffered a second defensive meltdown in as many weeks and lost to Purdue.

Also in the Big Ten, Ohio State was pushed to the limit by Nebraska, which slowed the nation's most productive offense but was undone once again by failures on special teams and inside the red zone.

Another is Cincinnati, which is making things more and more difficult for even its most ardent defenders by struggling to put away Tulsa.

And a fourth is Wake Forest, which was the lone unbeaten team in the ACC and the league's only hope for the College Football Playoff. The Demon Deacons can still reach a New Year's Six bowl but have very small odds of finishing in the top four after losing in a shootout to North Carolina.

About the only team that continues to take care of business on a weekly basis is Georgia, which swarmed Missouri to keep charging at an unbeaten regular season. Those teams and others lead this week's list of winners and losers:
