CB360 Top-50 Midweek Scoreboard (April 7-10, 2014)
Over the course of 50 midweek games from April 7-10 involving top-50 teams in the CB360 Composite National Rankings, nearly 40 percent of those games (19) were won by the unranked/lower-ranked teams. The top two teams in the CNR both were upset on Tuesday, April 8, as (1) Florida State suffered an 8-0 shutout loss vs. visiting (20) Florida while New Orleans won 8-7 at (2) Louisiana (Lafayette).
