California wanted revenge for 2004 when Texas coach Mack Brown politicked the Longhorns past the Bears and into the Rose Bowl. But all it got was a sloppy performance in a decisive 21-10 loss. How the game was won: Both defenses mostly dominated, but Cal lost the turnover battle 5-0. It’s impossible to win when you are minus-five in turnovers. Turning point: Cal took a 10-7 lead on the opening possession of the third quarter, but Texas immediately answered when David Ash connected with Marquise Goodwin for a 47-yard touchdown pass.

WACO, Texas — Oklahoma’s pursuing Baylor’s running game aggressively, and it’s paid off. The Bears carried the ball six times on their opening drive. Four went for losses. One was for no gain. The other went 6 yards. Oklahoma looked bent on flying to the ball and making Baylor’s offense one-dimensional. Baylor, though, tried to answer. Robert Griffin III is looking deep, but his only connection, an 80-yard touchdown to Kendall Wright, was erased by a hold.

Best call: On their opening possession, the Red Raiders scored a 44-yard touchdown on a slip screen to Torres. In the second quarter, Tech offensive coordinator Neal Brown came back to the play again. The result? A 33-yard Torres touchdown
