A&M shakes up national title race by beating Bama

[Jazzy]

TUSCALOOSA, ALA. Before Oregon, Kansas State and Notre Dame took the field, they got some good news.

No. 15 Texas A&M upset No. 1 Alabama 29-24 on Saturday taking one less unbeaten team out of the race for the BCS championship game.



Johnny Manziel and the Aggies shook up the national title race in Tuscaloosa, Ala., jumping out to a quick three-touchdown lead and then holding on at the end to Alabama's 13-game winning streak.



The Southeastern Conference has won the last six BCS championships, but with Alabama losing and three other teams unbeaten, it will be tough for the SEC to even get in the game without help.



Kansas State made its case for No. 1 — in both the polls and the BCS rankings — with a thorough 23-10 victory at TCU. No. 4 Notre Dame methodically beat Boston College 21-6.



No. 2 Oregon, third in the BCS standings, routed California 59-17 late Saturday night.



Alabama would likely need to win out and have two of those three teams lose to reach the national title game.
