Analyzing Alabama-Georgia and what it means, plus Week 6 predictions lead College Football Fix

The centerpiece of Week 5 of the college football season saw Alabama knock off No. 1 Georgia, giving a big win to Crimson Tide coach Kalen Deboer and raising questions about the Bulldogs and their offense that was listless for most of the first three quarters. Was it the best college football game of recent memory or just the best of this season?
The other consequential matchup saw Mississippi get stunned at home by Kentucky with Mark Stoops taking an uncharacteristic gamble. The Rebels looked to be in good shape for a playoff berth, but now there are questions, especially with a road matchup against South Carolina coming Saturday.
That's one of the notable games in Week 6. Another in the SEC sees No. 9 Missouri travels to No. 21 Texas A&M. Both teams are looking for resume boosters to their playoff hopes. Elsewhere, Washington and No. 10 Michigan meet in a rematch of the College Football Playoff championship game. How will these matchups and other matchups sort out?
Dan Wolken and Paul Myerberg of USA TODAY Sports discuss these topics and more in this week's version of the College Football Fix.
