College football 2020: Ranking the 3 worst losses from Week 13

Week 13 of the college football season saw some embarrassing losses on rivalry weekend, especially outside of the Power Five.

Under normal circumstances, Week 13 of the 2020 season would have been rivalry week. This is not a normal season as there were plenty of key rivalries missing from the schedule. The games that were played showed serious beatdowns and key victories.

This past weekend gave fans the thrill that rivalry week could despite some heavy restrictions from COVID-19. Many key games helped determine some key races for the College Football Playoff. The No. 15 Oregon Ducks might have been the only team from the Pac-12 to be able to make the playoff. The Ducks were not able to hold off rival Oregon State as they lost 41-38.

Some more matchups resulted in more lopsided games.

The No. 3 Clemson Tigers were able to get quarterback Trevor Lawrence back for his first game in over a month as they hosted the Pittsburgh Panthers. The Panthers couldn’t find an answer to stopping Lawrence and the Tigers as they lost 52-17.

The Kansas Jayhawks have been mentioned for some of the worst losses of the season already put forth another lopsided display on Saturday. The Jayhawks suffered another tough loss to the TCU Horned Frogs, 59-23.

Despite these bad losses from Oregon (with their playoff chances) and the terrible losses from Pittsburgh and Kansas, they do not compare to the worst of the week.

Here are the three worst losses from Week 13.
