Wild Week 11 shakes up playoff outlook

Chaos ruled Week 11 of college football, as eight ranked teams lost and nine more won by 10 points or fewer. It was an especially rough week for teams with Tigers as mascots: Both Memphis and No. 17 LSU lost to lower-ranked teams, while No. 1 Clemson survived a scare from 3-7 Syracuse, which it fended off by just 10 points.

Badgers fall to Drake

Coming into the 2015-’16 season, Drake University (2-0) was projected to finish second in the Missouri Valley Conference. Not only did they return four starters, but they have the preseason conference player of the year, sophomore forward Lizzy Wendell, who averaged 21.8 points per game last season. Unfortunately for the Badgers (1-1), Drake’s experience and star power proved too much for UW to handle, as they lost for the first time this season, 89-70, Wednesday night.
