The Weekend Leftovers is back with a run down from college football's Week 7.
For those new to this series - the weekend's slate of games is the meal, but as with any great, filling meal, there's always leftovers, so this is our weekly column we're calling The Weekend Leftovers that will include a bunch of stuff you may have missed from the weekend's action.
Let's dig in!
Have you ever seen a coach tackle a player heading to the wrong end zone?
A first time today filming my sons game. The opposing coach tackled his own player to stop him from scoring in the wrong end zone. This may be a SportsCenter Non Top 10. pic.twitter.com/rgT67ZF5Fh

Both ranked for the first time since 1960!!!
Just your normal AP poll. Army (23) and Navy (25) both ranked for the first time since 1960. Also first time they've both been unbeaten at this point in the season since 1945, only weeks after World War II ended. And oh yeah, Vanderbilt is the top team receiving votes (aka 26).

The reunion we didn't know we needed
In 2010 Chip Kelly yelled at me in the middle of a post game interview on ESPN. He’s returning to Autzen this weekend as Ohio State’s OC. Look for me on @CollegeGameDay #GoDucks pic.twitter.com/Y2Url9zg6J

Such a smart move, especially for Taco Bell
Taco Bell app has a feature now where you can tell them how much you want to spend and it gives you a random combo of items. If you don’t like the combo, you can refresh and it’ll give you a different combo pic.twitter.com/Ge9DjTeCmf

High school game in West Michigan ended in regulation with a basketball score. Word is two onside kicks were taken back for touchdowns.
This would have been an epic flex...IF the Sooners had won
Spending your NIL money on a Horns Down chain is insane. 😂 pic.twitter.com/WjCIEiZlPb
