Week 6 takeaways - Michigan, Georgia, Oklahoma flex muscles - ESPN

Oklahoma grabbed the biggest headlines of Week 6 with a stirring Red River Rivalry win over Texas, but there were plenty of other performances worthy of our attention.

Michigan showed it might be ready to take the next step — to the national championship. Georgia looked like the two-time defending national champ by drilling Kentucky. And Ohio State pulled away in handing Maryland its first loss.

Then there was the madness in Miami, where Georgia Tech made the Hurricanes pay for a head-scratching decision for the ages.

Here are the biggest takeaways from Week 6 by our college football reporters.

The Michigan Wolverines have played a weak schedule, there is no questioning that. But Michigan has dominated this season on offense and defense, and the team is setting records as it goes. Michigan's offense has scored 30 or more points in each of its past nine games, which is the longest streak in program history. The defense, which has yet to have an opponent take a snap inside the Wolverines' 10-yard line, has allowed just four touchdowns all season while scoring three touchdowns itself. Michigan is just the second team in the AP poll era to score 30 or more points and allow 10 or fewer points in each of its first six games; Nebraska did it in 1971.

The offense isn't one-dimensional anymore, either. Last season it was run heavy, but this season, quarterback J.J. McCarthy has thrown for 1,290 yards, 11 touchdowns and 3 interceptions. The passing game has complemented the run game, where Blake Corum has an FBS-leading 10 rushing touchdowns. It has been impressive, but the team's balance will be tested in November, when it finishes the regular season with games against Penn State, Maryland and Ohio State. — Tom VanHaaren
