College football Week 1 scores, updates: Notre Dame vs. Texas A&M

It’s the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, which means the college football chaos is really starting to kick off.

No. 1 Georgia started off with an absolute show of force, beating No. 14 Clemson 34-3 in their season opener. Heisman favorite Carson Beck was on point during the marquee showdown, throwing for 278 yards and two touchdowns in the win.

No. 19 Miami defeated in-state rival Florida in the afternoon period, with new QB Cam Ward throwing for 385 yards and three touchdowns in his debut.

Elsewhere, No. 4 Texas and No. 8 Penn State both fared well. Arch Manning scored the first touchdowns of his career in cleanup duty as the Longhorns beat Colorado State, and PSU QB Drew Allar looked very comfortable in the Nittany Lions’ new-look offense in a win over West Virginia.

Follow the rest of Saturday night’s action below.

(All tenses are Eastern.)

Time: 7:30 pm | TV: ABC | Line: Texas A&M -3 | Total: 46.5

Notre Dame doesn’t shy away from tough openers, and this one is no exception. Saturday night marks QB Riley Leonard’s first game in a Notre Dame uniform after transferring from Duke, but he’ll play behind a revamped offensive line that lost three starters from 2023. First-year Texas A&M coach Mike Elko brings a defense with plenty of new faces but still plenty of talent. And QB Connor Weigman returns as the Aggies’ starting quarterback with the goal of staying healthy all season.
