Texas Tech coach Tommy Tuberville said he did not slap graduate assistant coach Kevin Oliver, but apologized to Oliver and acknowledged he lost his cool and overreacted on the sideline during last Saturday's game.

"You don't do things like that," Tuberville said at his weekly press conference, according to KCBD.com.

On Saturday, Texas Tech had a 12th player on the field during a fourth-and-2 and was called for a penalty. Tuberville was upset at Oliver on the sideline. The extra player was a special teams player, and Oliver works with the special teams. Tuberville made a quick motion with his hand at Oliver, and Oliver's headset and hat were knocked off his head. Tuberville was adamant he did not slap Oliver. He did appear to snatch the headset off his head.

Derek Dooley's not fired yet — at least according to his comments during his Monday press conference.

Dooley, who is coming off a 51-48 four-overtime loss to Missouri, fielded multiple questions about his job status Monday and said there's nothing to the rumors that he's out as the Vols' head coach.

"Everybody said I was fired, and I didn't even know it and I'm sitting there working on Vandy, and I have already talked to [athletic director] Dave [Hart]," Dooley said.

Tennessee coach Derek Dooley is a fired man walking today and it's all thanks to Missouri receiver Dorial Green-Beckham drawing up a game-tying play on his hand.

Yep, just like you used to do with the neighbor kids during two-hand touch in the street, Green-Beckham ran to the huddle and started diagramming what would ultimately be a 25-yard touchdown pass with 47 seconds remaining in regulation. Missouri would go on to win the game 51-48 in four overtimes.

After beating No. 1 Alabama, Texas A&M returned home to a hero's welcome.

Thousands of A&M fans lined the streets to greet the team bus upon its return and slap hands with the players who were only the second team to beat the Crimson Tide in the past two seasons.

The win was by far the biggest victory in coach Kevin Sumlin's tenure and perhaps one of the greatest Aggie victories of all time. Not to mention it put quarterback Johnny Manziel in the hunt for the Heisman Trophy.

The Pac-12 has been called to independently investigate claims of abuse by the Washington State coaching staff, according to commissioner Larry Scott.

Scott said Ron Barker, the conference's head of enforcement, would likely lead the investigation.

Saturday evening, former wide receiver Marquess Wilson sent out an open letter to the media announcing he was quitting the team and claiming that the coaching staff's abuse had played a role in his decision.

Wilson had been suspended indefinitely after walking out on a practice Nov. 4.

(US Presswire)Soon, using the phrase "Johnny Football" might cost you.

The nickname used for Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel is about to be trademarked. ESPN's Darren Rovell reports that the Manziel family and Texas A&M are working together to trademark "Johnny Football" now that the redshirt freshman has become so popular.

The Manziel's and Texas A&M are not trademarking the name to profit off it, but rather prevent anyone else from using it. Profiting from Manziel's nickname would damage his amateur status with the NCAA. An organization called Kenneth R. Reynolds Family Investments, based in College Station, Texas, filed for the "Johnny Football" trademark. Rovell notes that it could take years for the Manziel's to own the trademark and there has to be due diligence to make sure no one else used the name before A&M fans started using it for Manziel.

Manziel's popularity reached a fever pitch this last weekend when Manziel led the Aggies to a 29-24 upset of No. 1 Alabama. So far this season

For the first time since Oct. 17, 2010, an SEC team in not in the top two of the BCS standings.

After Alabama's stunning loss to Texas A&M, the Crimson Tide, which had held the No. 1 spot since the BCS standings were released five weeks ago, dropped to No. 4 clearing the way for Kansas State to slip into the No. 1 spot, followed by Oregon and Notre Dame.

Yep, with three weeks remaining in the season, it looks like an SEC team will not play in the BCS National Championship for the first time since 2005.

(US Presswire)The four undefeated contenders for the BCS Championship Game lost a member on Saturday.

Alabama's loss to Texas A&M makes what Notre Dame, Kansas State and Oregon did on Saturday that much more impressive.

Those teams are getting opponents' best shot every week. Alabama gave in to that pressure, but the other three won with ease.
