The Seminoles (6-0, 4-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) did not get into Georgia Tech territory until the final two minutes of the first half, but then scored on three straight drives to finish off the Yellow Jackets (4-2, 3-1).

No. 4 North Carolina 20, N. Carolina St. 7

At Raleigh, N.C., Brian Schmitz drilled a 51-yard field goal in a driving rainstorm midway through the third quarter broke a 7-7 tie to spark the Tar Heels.

North Carolina (7-0), which moved within one win of heading undefeated into a Nov. 8 showdown with No. 3 Florida State, held its 14th straight opponent under 300 yards.

No. 5 Michigan 28, No. 15 lowa 24

At Ann Arbor, Mich., Brian Griese, whose three first-half interceptions put Michigan (6-0) in a 21-7 hole, threw for three touchdowns and ran for another to lead the comeback.

Michigan's defense, which went into the game ranked first nationally having allowed just 5.2 points per game, held lowa (4-2) to 187 total yards and just three points after halftime.

But that almost wasn't enough to overcome four turnovers, a blocked punt, a punt return for a touchdown and a 72-yard kickoff return.

No. 7 Florida 24, No. 6 Auburn 10

At Auburn, Ala., former walk-on Noah Brindise passed for one touchdown and wide receiver Jacquez Green scored three times, as the Gators (6-1, 4-1) stayed on track for a record-tying fifth straight Southeastern Conference title.

Freshman Jesse Palmer was benched after throwing his second interception early in the third quarter with the score tied at 10. Brindise and Fred Taylor, who rushed for 140 yards, led Florida 97 yards for the go-ahead score, handing Auburn (6-1, 3-1) its first loss.
