Week 9 featured five games pitting AP Top 25 teams against each other, and the biggest was No. 14 Texas A&M rallying for a 38-23 victory over No. 8 LSU, putting the Aggies at 5-0 in SEC play and alone at the top of the conference standings. The Aggies came back from a 10-point halftime deficit after starting Marcel Reed at quarterback in the second half.

It was all chalk for most of Saturday. No. 12 Notre Dame benefited from six turnovers from No. 24 Navy in a 51-14 blowout. No. No. 4 Ohio State and No. 13 Indiana quelled any upset fears by holding their own in Big Ten battles at home. Then No. 1 Oregon, No. 3 Penn State and No. 5 Texas took care of business later.

Otherwise, Saturday seemed like a showcase for personal accomplishments, with Ohio State’s Jeremiah Smith becoming the first freshman in 19 years to score a TD in each of his first seven games and Oregon’s Dillon Gabriel moving into second place in all-time touchdowns. passes.

And in the nightcap, Colorado became bowl eligible with an impressive 34-23 win over Cincinnati. The Buffaloes are now 6-2.

    Cincinnati went for it on fourth down near midfield with just over 30 seconds left in the half and didn’t get it and now the Buffs have made them pay for it.

    It’s Shedeur Sanders again against Travis Hunter to give Colorado a 24-14 lead heading into the break.

  • SMU wins!

    Maalik Murphy’s pass is incomplete on the two-point attempt and SMU holds on for the 28-27 overtime win! Mustangs improve to 4-0 in ACC play with the league title and CFP still very much in play.

    SMU scored a TD first, then Duke answered with a TD and went for 2 for the win.

    The Blue Devils have a chance to get the win after a wild strip and come back late in the fourth quarter.

    The Buffs regained the lead after a brief struggle from Shedeur Sanders.
