UPSET ALERT: Florida Falls Right After USC

Whoever will take USC's place as the #1 team in the nation is still undetermined. However, one thing is for sure: it won't be the Gators.

With 3:28 remaining in the fourth quarter, Florida's Jonathan Phillips attempted to kick an extra point to tie the game 31-31. However, the kick was blocked, so Ole Miss was left ahead 31-30. Florida had a 4th-and-1 at the Ole Miss 32. Tim Tebow rushed to try to gain the first down, but Ole Miss stopped him right at the line of scrimmage. Ole Miss QB Jevan Snead took a knee to run out the clock and seal the upset over Florida.

Now, with the fall of Florida, the Dawgs will be looking to beat Alabama tonight and take over the #1 ranking once again. The game can be seen live on ESPN and at ESPN360.com at 7:45 PM Eastern Time.
