09/06/25 - RB Devin Mockobee, rSr/2026, Purdue + More +

Devin Mockobee rushed for 126 yards and two touchdowns, Ryan Browne passed for two scores, and Purdue limited Southern Illinois to a field goal in the last three quarters in a 34-17 home triumph on Saturday. Both of Mockobee's 1-yard scores were on direct snaps in the Wildcat formation as the senior's first TD pushed Purdue's lead to 24-14 just before halftime and his second touchdown made it 34-14 early in the fourth quarter. "We know that we're going to have to be a running team," Purdue coach Barry Odom said. "Devin had a big workload tonight. He continues to make plays. He's a tough kid, a great competitor."

It was the first multi-score game of Mockobee's career. "It's a great feeling obviously," Mockobee said of Purdue (2-0) doubling its win total from last year. "When you get to a point where you're winning games, it's always better to win ‘em than lose 'em." Each of Browne's scoring passes tied the game in the opening quarter as he hit Armad Branch on a 13-yard play and Nitro Tuttle on a 29-yard slant pass. The Boilermakers defense, which blanked Ball State 31-0 in the opener, generated three sacks and seven tackles for loss. - Purdue/AP College Football

09/06/25 - RB Makari Bodiford, So/2028, Memphis + More +

Makari Bodiford scored two touchdowns and Memphis scored the last 24 points to defeat Georgia State 38-16 on Saturday night. After Gianni Spetic kicked a 55-yard field goal as time expired in the first half to put the Tigers on top 17-16 they put together a pair of long touchdown drives in the third quarter. Brendon Lewis scored on a 5-yard run to cap a 10-play, 75-yard drive that took almost five minutes. Then Bodiford's 1-yard plunge ended a six-minute drive that covered 51 yards in 10 plays.

DeMarco Ward closed it with a 31-yard interception return in the final minute for Memphis (2-0), his second pick-6 in as many games. Cameran Brown had a touchdown running and passing for the Panthers (0-2), stepping in for starter TJ Finley. Finley was injured after starting the game 10-for-10. The former LSU, Auburn, Texas State and Western Kentucky quarterback, who was activated just this week, returned for the second half. Sutton Smith and Bodiford had rushing touchdowns for Memphis in the first half. Bodiford's 7-yard run ended a 10-play, 75-yard drive. Finley finished 21-of-29 passing for 201 yards with an interception. Brown was 8 of 12 for 139 and was the leading rusher with 25 yards. - Memphis/AP College Football

09/06/25 - QB Dylan Raiola, So/2028, Nebraska + More +

Dylan Raiola threw for 364 yards and four touchdowns and Emmett Johnson ran for 140 yards and scored three times to lead Nebraska past Akron 68-0 on Saturday night. The Cornhuskers (2-0) turned in their most prodigious offensive performance against a Bowl Subdivision opponent in more than a decade. They recorded their most points in a game since 2007 and most yards in a game since 2014. They posted their first shutout since a 33-0 Holiday Bowl win over Arizona in 2009. The Zips (0-2), who opened the season with a 10-0 loss to Wyoming at home, were held scoreless for a second straight game.

Johnson broke a 47-yard touchdown run on the game's opening possession, caught a 4-yard TD pass in the second quarter and ran 6 yards for a score in the third. Johnson was the first Nebraska player with back-to-back 100-yard rushing games since Anthony Grant had three straight to open the 2022 season. Raiola gave way to freshman backup TJ Lateef after he threaded a perfect strike to Dane Key in the end zone for a 47-0 lead in the third quarter. Akron had two good chances to score its first points of the season. But Owen Wiley's 49-yard field goal attempt bounced off the left upright in the final seconds of the first half, and Riley Van Poppel blocked Wiley's 33-yard try in the third quarter. - Nebraska/AP College Football

09/06/25 - QB Victor Gabalis, rSr/2026, Tarleton State + More +

Victor Gabalis threw five of Tarleton State's six touchdown passes and the Texans beat Mississippi Valley State 59-3 Saturday night. The victory for the Texans (3-0), ranked No. 3 in the FCS coaches poll, comes a week after beating Army at West Point 30-27 in double-overtime. Gabalis' five TD passes are the most for a Texans quarterback since the program moved up to Division I in 2020. He was 20 of 27 for 295 yards. Daniel Greek had the other TD pass.

Bryce Parker caught two touchdown passes and Trevon West finished with 135 yards receiving on six receptions. The Texans had 460 yards offense to 244 for the Delta Devils (1-1), who had just 50 yards on the ground. The Delta Devils had five turnovers that led to 21 points, including Jaden Aubert's 68-yard pick-6 for the game's final points. The Texans scored 24 points in the second quarter for a 31-7 halftime lead before adding 28 points in the third quarter. - AP College Football

09/06/25 - QB Garrett Nussmeier, rSr/2026, LSU + More +

Garrett Nussmeier passed for 237 yards and a touchdown and No. 3 LSU held Louisiana Tech to 154 total yards in a 23-7 victory on Saturday night. Caden Durham rushed for a 3-yard touchdown for LSU (2-0), which was favored by about five touchdowns but didn't lead by more than 10 points until late in the third quarter. "We're not happy with production across the board," LSU coach Brian Kelly said. "I'm not happy with the performance, but it's a win." LSU's defense did its part, shutting out the Bulldogs (1-1) until reserve quarterback Blake Baker's 33-yard scoring pass to Devin Gandy with 4:02 left in the game.

The Tigers outgained Louisiana Tech by 211 yards and LSU held a large advantage in time of possession, 36:52 to 23:08. Barion Brown caught eight passes for 94 yards for the Tigers and got a game ball for his effort. Brown, a transfer from Kentucky, "balled out," Kelly said. "That's what we expected from him." Fellow Tigers receiver Aaron Anderson had eight catches for 73 yards. But the Bulldogs frustrated Nussmeier and Co. on a handful of possessions, forcing a turnover, three punts and four field goal attempts, one of which failed. LSU rushed for 128 yards - and Kelly said "a lack of execution by coaches and players alike" made it tough for the Tigers to finish drives and pull away on the scoreboard. - LSU/AP College Football

09/06/25 - QB Cale Hellums, Jr/2027, Army + More +

Cale Hellums accounted for three touchdowns that included a 14-yard touchdown run with 2:52 left to help Army beat Kansas State 24-21 on Saturday night. Kansas State's (1-2) final drive ended when Avery Johnson threw an interception just past midfield. The Black Knights (1-1) kept the ball on the ground, running the ball 70 times out of their 82 offensive plays. Army had four scoring drives of at least 13 plays, including three which took at least seven minutes, and outgained K-State 332-247 in total yards.

Hellums completed 7 of 11 passes and ran 41 times for 124 yards. He tossed a 2-yard touchdown pass to Brady Anderson to end the first half. Hellums later added a 1-yard TD run late in the third quarter that gave the Black Knights a 14-13 lead, but Bryce Noernberg returned the ensuing kickoff 99 yards into the end zone and K-State regained the lead, 21-13. Army held a 40:44 to 19:16 advantage in time of possession and is the first K-State opponent to rush for more than 200 yards since late in the 2023 season. Johnson finished 15-of-25 passing for 172 yards and threw one touchdown pass to Jaron Tibbs for the Wildcats. Tibbs finished with five catches for 61 yards. - Army/AP College Football

Cornelious Brown threw three touchdown passes and ran for two TDs to lead Alabama A&M to a 41-31 win over Alcorn State on Saturday night. Brown threw a 19-yard touchdown pass to Jordan Chambers-Smith and an 18-yarder to Daveon Walker before scored on a 7-yard run that made it 21-14 late in the first quarter and gave Alabama A&M (1-1) the lead for good.

Jacorian Sewell ripped off an 80-yard TD run for the Braves (0-2) in the first quarter and finished with 12 carries for 115 yards. Reggie Davis added scoring runs of 2 and 20 yards. Jarvis Rush caught an 18-yard touchdown pass from Jaylon Tolbert to cap a 16-play, 80-yard drive that took seven minute, 37 seconds off the clock and trimmed the Alcorn State's deficit to 35-31 with 10:30 left in the the game. After the teams traded punts, Tolbert's pass to Ja'Coby Matthews on fourth-and-6 fell incomplete. The Bulldogs took over at the Alcorn State 23 with 2:46 remaining and Maurice Edwards ran for a 1-yard TD that capped the scoring with 19 seconds left. - AP College Football

09/06/25 - QB Luca Stanzani, rJr/2027, Long Island University + More +

Ethan Greenwood and Luca Stanzani each ran for two touchdowns and Long Island University defeated Eastern Michigan 28-23 on Saturday night. LIU, a member of the Northeast Conference of the FCS, bounced back from a 55-0 drubbing at the hands of Florida a week ago with their first win over an FBS opponent in program history. The Sharks (1-1) never trailed against Eastern Michigan and Greenwood's 65-yard touchdown run on LIU's first possession set the tone. Greenwood added a short touchdown run early in the second quarter and LIU went on to lead 14-10 at halftime.

After a scoreless third quarter, Stanzani's 14-yard run made it 21-10 in the fourth. Eastern Michigan answered with a 40-yard scoring run by Dontae McMillan and a failed two-point try left the score at 21-16. Stanzani added a short TD run near the two-minute mark, giving the Sharks a two-score cushion. Eastern Michigan scored on a Noah Kim 5-yard pass to Jamarien Wheeler with 41 seconds left but Long Island recovered the onside kick. Stanzani and Greenwood are both quarterbacks. Stanzani passed for 143 yards and ran for 67. Greenwood had 105 yards passing and 91 rushing. - AP College Football

Chip Trayanum rushed for a career-high 163 yards and two touchdowns, Junior Vandeross III caught five passes for 122 yards and a score, and Toledo took down Western Kentucky 45-21 on Saturday night. Trayanum, a Kentucky transfer, eclipsed 100 rushing yards for just the second time in his six-year collegiate career and first time since 2020 against UCLA while at Arizona. Kenji Christian, a transfer from North Carolina A&T, added 91 rushing yards on 15 carries. Toledo had 307 yards on the ground.

The Rockets (1-1) scored on their first drive after a WKU fumble set them up at the opposing 34-yard line. Emmanuel McNeil-Warren then reeled in a 37-yard pick-six to extend Toledo's lead to 14-0 just over three minutes into the game. After a WKU touchdown pass made it 14-7, the Rockets scored 31 consecutive points and Western Kentucky did not score again until early in the fourth quarter. Vanderross caught a 71-yard touchdown pass just before halftime, and Trayanum took the first snap of the second half 75 yards for a score. The Hilltoppers (2-1) were led by Maverick McIvor's 235 passing yards and two scores, and Moussa Barry's three receptions for 110 yards. - Toledo/AP College Football

Evan Helfrich kicked a 29-yard field goal in overtime to give former NFL quarterback Michael Vick his first collegiate head coaching victory with Norfolk State, 34-31 over Virginia State on Saturday night. Vick, who played in the NFL for 13 seasons after his college career at Virginia Tech, took over the Spartans program last December.

He was nearly denied his first win after the Spartans (1-1) saw Division-II Virginia State take a 31-24 lead with 2:14 to go with a touchdown and then watched a 46-yard field-goal attempt by the Trojans hit the cross bar after the Spartans had tied the game with 53 seconds left on Jaylen Laudermilk's 33-yard run. The Trojans turned the ball over on downs in overtime, opening the door for the Spartans, who scored 21 points in the fourth quarter to rally from a 23-7 deficit. Otto Kuhns threw for 173 yards and two touchdowns for Norfolk State. Rahsaan Matthews Jr. passed for 299 yards and two scores for Virginia State (1-1) with Marquis Smith finishing with 105 yards receiving and Ajenavi Byrd 101. - AP College Football

Gio Lopez threw a 51-yard touchdown pass to Chris Culliver on the first possession, Davion Gause ran for a 12-yard score and Bill Belichick got his first win as a college head coach as North Carolina defeated Charlotte 20-3 on a rain-soaked Saturday afternoon. Lopez completed 17 of 25 passes for 155 yards for the Tar Heels (1-1). North Carolina's defense held Charlotte (0-2) to 271 yards and forced two turnovers. Belichick, who won six Super Bowls with the New England Patriots and is the second-winningest head coach in NFL history, downplayed the significance of his first win at this level after the game.

"It's hard to win," Belichick said. "You gotta do a lot of things right. You gotta do it better than your opponent, so we were fortunate to do that. So it's, it's good to be part of it. I tried to do what I could to help them, but look, I didn't make any blocks, tackles, catches, runs or anything else out there." North Carolina lured Belichick to Chapel Hill with a five-year, $50 million million contract to boost its athletic profile, but his debut in front of a national audience on Monday night was a disaster as the Tar Heels got blown out 48-14 at home by TCU. It was the most points ever allowed by a UNC team in a season opener. It raised some early questions about whether the 73-year-old Belichick was capable of winning at this level, but his Tar Heels responded with a solid overall performance. - AP College Football

Carson Beck already has found his way into the Miami record book. Beck completed his first 15 passes to break a Miami record, finishing 22 of 24 for 264 yards with two touchdowns as the fifth-ranked Hurricanes eased past Bethune-Cookman 45-3 on Saturday night. Beck's 15 consecutive completions broke a Miami single-game mark that stood for nearly four decades; Vinny Testaverde completed 14 in a row against Oklahoma in 1986. "It's super cool, obviously, to perform at a high level and do things like that," Beck said. CJ Daniels caught both of Beck's touchdown passes, from 40 and 5 yards out.

Beck has gone 185 consecutive passes without an interception, dating to last season when he was with Georgia. "He keeps getting better and better," Miami coach Mario Cristobal said. "I mean, every practice, every week, there's this continued growth and development, and really you see an appetite for more. He just wants to get better. He wants Miami to get to better. He wants to Miami to win. And he's all about team." Mark Fletcher Jr. had two touchdown runs for the Hurricanes (2-0), who reached the end zone on their first five drives and began substituting liberally in the third quarter. Marty Brown and Girard Pringle also had scoring runs for Miami. Timmy McClain completed 13 of 15 passes for 86 yards for Bethune-Cookman (0-2). Juan Dominguez had a 32-yard field goal for the Wildcats. - Miami/AP College Football

Devon Dampier matched his career best with three touchdown passes to lead No. 25 Utah to a 63-9 win over Cal Poly of the Football Championship Subdivision on Saturday. Dampier connected with Wayshawn Parker for a 52-yard touchdown to cap Utah's first drive. He then found Ryan Davis for a 4-yard TD in the second quarter. Dampier, who finished 17 of 23 for 192 yards, added an 11-yard scoring strike to Dallen Bentley in the third quarter before taking a seat. "It was awesome. Just being in the stadium, it was as electric as everyone had talked about it," Dampier, a New Mexico transfer, said about his first game at Rice-Eccles Stadium.

NaQuari Rogers added two 1-yard TD runs in the last 1:44 of the second quarter for a 35-6 lead at halftime. "It brings me joy, seeing everybody happy. Like, I know I scored, but it was like, the whole team scored," said Parker, who also had a 43-yard TD run. The Mustangs (1-1) got two field goals from Noah Serna and one from Gianluca Dimauro. Utah (2-0) moved to 17-1 in its last 18 home openers under coach Kyle Whittingham as plenty of reserves got playing time, including quarterback Byrd Ficklin, who rushed for two TDs. "Controlled the game, really, from start to finish and a lot of guys made good contributions," Whittingham said. - Utah/AP College Football
