  • Auburn 48, UTEP 24

Gavin Hardison passed the ball well enough to never let Auburn totally exhale, but the Miners had no response for the Auburn run game. On the first play of the game, Bo Nix took the option keeper 75 yards for a touchdown. A holding call brought it back, but it largely just delayed the inevitable. Jarquez Hunter and Tank Bigsby both went over 150 yards, and Auburn went for 388 rushing yards as a team.


  • SMU 23, Army 20 (2OT)

SMU grinded out a 17-3 lead going into the 4th quarter, with Army down to their third string quarterback. Jemel Jones was 3-8 for 38 yards and a pick. But one of those 3 completions was a 13 yarder on 4th and 12 to extend the Black Knights’ first touchdown drive. After forcing a 3 and out, Army had a second touchdown drive to miraculously tie the game. Their final two drives covered 150 yards, and took over 11 minutes of game time. The decision not to go for the win would come back to bite them. After trading missed field goals in the first overtime, Army did kick a field goal in the second. Tanner Mordecai hit Reggie Roberson Jr. for a game winning touchdown on the second play of the Mustangs’ possession.


  • MICHIGAN 34, East Carolina 14

An absolutely disastrous first half turned in a major way for the Wolverines in the second half. The Pirates took a shocking 14-3 lead into the break, thanks to a pair of missed field goals and a Cade McNamera red zone fumble, to go with 56 total passing yards. It didn’t take long for any upset talk to disappear. Michigan marched right down the field for an opening possession touchdown. Then scored a pick six. Forced a four and out, and scored another touchdown. They were up 24-14 less than halfway into the third quarter, and then a sort of sleep walk finish. McNamera throwing for just 126 yards with an interception and a fumble is troubling though.

  • Oklahoma State 24, UTSA 19

Oklahoma State fans are used to having to lean heavily on their defense this year, but perhaps never more than today, when the Cowboys failed to score a point in the second half, and a 24-9 halftime lead was perilous. When he needed to, Spencer Sanders made a great throw on 3rd and 6, allowing Oklahoma State to take knees and run out the clock.

  • Florida 37, Appalachian State 14
What looked, on paper, to perhaps be the best game of the day, was over in a hurry.  The Gators led 14-0 after two possessions, and 28-7 at the half.  They didn’t find the end zone in the second half, but they did have three red zone possessions, they just happened to result in 3 field goals.

    • Wake Forest 26, Air Force 21


    The Falcons’ run game worked early, 188 rushing yards in the first half, but once Wake Forest figured out Air Force had no passing game, even by their standards, it was over.  And Air Force had no passing game.  They led 14-13 at halftime, but even that final score was a little misleading.  Wake Forest scored two touchdowns in the second half, and Air Force’s lone score was also their lone trip across midfield, when one of their lineman scooped up their own fumble, and ran 62 yards with it, into the Deacon red zone

Friday results

  • Tulsa d. UTSA (UTSA eliminated)
  • Fresno State 27, Texas A&M 25
The Bulldogs took a -2 turnover differential, and a 24-9 lead into halftime in front of a stunned Kyle Field.  They executed their bend but don’t break defense to perfection.  Six of the Aggies’ first seven possessions reached the red zone.  The result?  Four field goals, one missed field goal, and one turnover on downs.  12 points on six red zone trips.  Zach Calzata got it going in the fourth quarter, hitting Isaiah Spiller for a 40 yard screen pass for a touchdown, to cut it to 27-19, and then an 8 yard completion to Ainias Smith with 1:52 left.  The two point conversion attempt to a double covered Jalen Wydermyer in the middle of the end zone was knocked to the ground, and Fresno State held on for the upset.

NOON results
Cincinnati 27, Pittsburgh 13
The Bearcats jumped out on a stunned Heinz Field crowd in a hurry, up 14-0 after running just one offensive play.  Desmond Ridder hit Tyler Scott for a 75 yard catch and run touchdown on the first play of the game.  After forcing a three and out, Ryan Montgomery took a line drive punt 56 yards for another score.  As field conditions rapidly deteriorated in a driving rain that 14 point lead was never threatened.  Kenny Pickett never got it going, and the Panthers were never within single digits.

MINNESOTA 27, MICHIGAN STATE 24
Minnesota marched up and down the field on the Spartans in the first half, and largely held the explosive Michigan State offense in check.  But a missed chip shot field goal, and a Tanner Morgan fumble returned 84 yards by Drew Jordan for a touchdown left the score tied 14-14 midway through the second quarter, despite Minnesota outgaining Michigan State 283-112.  The Gophers responded with a touchdown drive, and then after Mel Tucker decided to try and go for points, rather than running the clock out, got the ball back.  Tanner Morgan hit Chris Autman-Bell down to the 35, and Matthew Trickett hit a 52 yard field goal on the last play of the game.  Kenny Walker got the Spartans back to within 3 with an 18 yard touchdown run with 5:45 left, but the Gophers were able to run out the rest of the clock.  Tanner Morgan finished with 233 passing yards and 106 rushing yards on the day.

IOWA 31, North Carolina 21
With just over a minute left in the first half the teams had combined for 4 turnovers, but just one score.  The Tar Heels clung to a 7-0 lead, and Spencer Petras was 3-13 passing the ball.  A broken coverage allowed Tyrone Tracy Jr. to get behind the defense for a 32 yard tying score just before the break.  In the third quarter the game opened up with scores on the first five possessions of the second half, and the Hawkeyes taking a 24-21 lead.  A failed 4th and short attempt allowed Iowa to take over and drive 58 yards for the insurance score.
