As usual, when conference play gets rolling, teams start falling. On Saturday alone four top 15 teams went on the road and came home with a loss. Florida State losing at Virginia is certainly an understandable loss, but Kansas, Nevada and Kentucky all fell to unranked opponents. There will be plenty more to come this week. Watch out for Wednesday night when Virginia Tech, Auburn, Ohio State, Marquette, Houston, Virginia and Iowa all hit the road. Most of those games are against teams that can certainly pull off a win.
