Week 6 of the college football season was total chaos, in a good way.

In between those two games, a lot was revealed as the final four College Football Playoff creeps ever closer. 

Let’s take a look at what was learned in Week 6.

In the final version of the Red River Rivalry in the Big 12, Oklahoma and Texas gave college football fans a show to remember for years. 

Oklahoma quarterback Dillon Gabriel put himself firmly in the Heisman conversation after leading the Sooners on a last-minute game-winning drive to move OU to 6-0 on the season. 

Gabriel finished the day 23 of 38 for 285 yards and a touchdown, adding 113 yards and a score on the ground. 

His performance, along with Oklahoma’s defense, puts the Sooners in prime position for a CFP spot in Brent Venables' second season as head coach.
