  RJ Harvey had a 17-yard touchdown run with 48 seconds remaining, sending UCF to a 25-21 win over No. 20 Cincinnati on Saturday. Harvey's go-ahead TD capped a seven-play, 75-yard march directed by Mikey Keene. The backup quarterback was 4 for 4 for 57 yards on the drive. Cincinnati (6-2, 3-1 American Athletic Conference) took a 21-18 lead with 3:04 remaining. Ryan Montgomery scored on a 39-yard touchdown run, and the Bearcats added the 2-point conversion on a Ben Bryant pass to Tyler Scott. UCF (6-2, 3-1) took a 10-6 lead into halftime on the strength of a 26-yard touchdown run by Harvey. The Knights added a safety in the third quarter when Josh Celiscar sacked Bryant in the end zone.

Cincinnati had won six in a row since a season-opening loss to Arkansas. Bryant passed for 298 yards and a touchdown, and Montgomery had a team-high 40 yards rushing on three carries. Harvey had 18 carries for 84 yards for UCF. The Knights finished with 258 yards on the ground and 247 through the air. Following a fumble recovery, Bryant threw a 14-yard touchdown to Josh Whyte to make it 13-12 at the end of the third quarter. Whyte's TD capped a 10-play, 84-yard drive. UCF quarterback John Rhys Plumlee was 7 of 11 for 71 yards when he was knocked out of the game late in the first half. He also rushed for 31 yards. - UCF/AP College Football

  KJ Jefferson ran for two touchdowns and passed for a third and Raheim Sanders rushed for 171 yards to lead Arkansas to a 41-27 victory over Auburn on Saturday in a battle to escape the bottom of the Southeastern Conference Western Division. The Razorbacks (5-3, 2-3 SEC) snapped a six-game losing streak versus the Tigers (3-5, 1-4), who have dropped four games in a row. The two teams came into the day tied with Texas A&M for last in the SEC West. But Auburn couldn't stop Jefferson and Sanders or produce scores on offense when the game was still in doubt. Much of Jordan-Hare Stadium had emptied before the Tigers' final two touchdowns that served to make the final score more respectable.

Sanders set up the decisive touchdown with a 76-yard scamper down the left sideline late in the third quarter. Rashod Dubinion then scored the first of his two late touchdowns. Jefferson completed 16 of 24 passes for 234 yards and stiff-armed safety Zion Puckett to the ground on his way to a 13-yard touchdown run. Matt Landers caught four passes for 115 yards. Auburn's Robby Ashford was 24-of-33 passing for 285 yards and a touchdown, while rushing 19 times for 87 yards. Tailback Tank Bigsby was mostly contained aside from a 41-yard touchdown run. Things snowballed for the Tigers after their opening drive of the third quarter stalled and then ended with Isaiah Nichols' blocked field goal, while down just 17-13. - Arkansas/AP College Football

  OCT 24 AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE DEFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Jireh Wilson, Jr., S, East Carolina,...Wilson led a defensive effort that limited UCF, which had averaged 41.3 points and 525.2 yards per game, to 13 points, 130 rushing yards and 426 total yards in a 34-13 victory. Wilson figured in two of the Pirates' four takeaways as he had an interception and a fumble recovery in the first half, both of which led to East Carolina points, allowing ECU to build an 17-0 lead. He also finished with three tackles. - American Athletic Football

  Central Florida became the sixth team this season to score 70 points with its 70-13 win over Temple. The Golden Knights have a history of putting up big offensive numbers, so let's talk defense. UCF has held nine straight opponents to 20 points or fewer, the longest active streak in the FBS, and allowed just nine points in the fourth quarter this season. Only Illinois, at seven, has allowed fewer points in the final 15 minutes of games. - AP College Football

  OCT 17 AMERICAN ATHLETIC CONFERENCE OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: John Rhys Plumlee, Sr., QB, UCF,...Plumlee tied an American Athletic Conference single-game record by figuring in seven touchdowns in UCF's 70-13 win against Temple. Plumlee completed 18 of 22 passes for a career-high 373 yards and four touchdowns and added three rushing TDs against a Temple defense that had allowed only two offensive touchdowns in its previous 12 quarters. Plumlee became only the third FBS player in the last decade to finish a game with at least four touchdown passes and three rushing TDs. - American Athletic Conference Football

  KJ Jefferson threw for 367 yards and a career-high five touchdowns to lead Arkansas to a 52-35 victory over BYU on Saturday. Raheim Sanders added 175 yards and a pair of touchdowns on the ground for Arkansas (4-3), which snapped a three-game losing streak after rolling up 644 total yards on the Cougars. Third-down efficiency contributed greatly to fueling the Razorbacks' potent offensive showing. Arkansas went 12-of-14 on third down. Jaren Hall threw for a career-high 356 yards and three touchdowns to lead BYU (4-3). Puka Nacua had 141 receiving yards and Kody Epps added 125 receiving yards for the Cougars. Nacua also scored three touchdowns.

BYU tallied 471 total yards, but the Cougars lost their second straight game after repeatedly allowing quick scoring drives and committing three turnovers. BYU cut the deficit to 38-35 on a 33-yard catch by Nacua in the third quarter. Arkansas rallied with back-to-back touchdowns – culminating in a 64-yard scamper down the sidelines by Sanders – that extended its lead to 52-35 early in the fourth. Hall picked apart the Arkansas defense early in the first half. He threw a pair of first quarter touchdown passes to give the Cougars a 13-7 lead. Nacua's 31-yard grab along the sideline on 4th-and-8 set up the first score. Kody Epps dashed in for BYU's second touchdown on a 21-yard catch-and-run. - Arkansas/AP College Football

  John Rhys Plumlee accounted for seven touchdown to match a program record and led UCF to a 70-13 rout of Temple on Thursday night. Plumlee threw for 373 yards and four touchdowns and added another 37 yards on the ground with three scores. All three short-yardage touchdown runs and a 25-yard TD pass to Kobe Hudson came in the first half as UCF (5-1, 2-0 American Athletic Conference) jumped out to a 35-13 halftime lead. Plumlee hit Ryan O'Keefe with touchdown passes that included a 68-yarder on consecutive drives early in the third quarter. Plumlee added a 64-yard TD pass to Hudson that stretched the Knights' lead to 56-13 about midway through the third. Hudson finished with four catches for 121 yards receiving and O'Keefe had seven for 111.

UCF put up 737 yards of offense while holding Temple (2-4, 0-2) to 293. It was the Knights' sixth straight win against the Owls and the third game this season surpassing 600 yards of offense. It was also the Knights most yards of offense since gaining 798 against Memphis on Oct. 17, 2020. The Knights honored their ties to the Kennedy Space Center, where roughly a third of its employees are UCF alumni, by rebranding as The Space U Citronauts for the game. They wore space-themed, all-black uniforms displaying a Canaveral blue "Space U" wordmark on the front of their jerseys. The Knights are 7-0 in spaced-themed games. E.J. Warner completed 24 of 43 passes for 234 yards and a touchdown pass for Temple. - UCF/AP College Football

  The playing status of Arkansas quarterback KJ Jefferson for Saturday's 11 a.m. game at No. 23 Mississippi State will be evaluated on a day-to-day basis through the course of the week, Coach Sam Pittman said Monday. On Saturday, Jefferson hit his helmet on the field during a fourth-quarter sack, missed one play, threw an incomplete pass on the next play, then did not return for the last 6:55 of the Razorbacks' 49-26 loss to No. 2 Alabama. Cade Fortin, a senior transfer from South Florida, finished Arkansas' final two drives. Pittman did not confirm Jefferson was in the team's concussion protocols at his weekly news conference Monday, but his comments suggest that is the case. "He has some mild symptoms," Pittman said. "Those are things that our doctors look at. Each kid is a little bit different with how they react. "We've had guys back within three-four days. We've had guys out for 27 days. He's kind of a wait-and-see to be honest with you." - Northwest Arkansas Times

  OCT 3 BIG 12 SPECIAL TEAMS & CO-NEWCOMER PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Jaden Nixon, OSU, RB, Fr.,...Nixon returned the opening kickoff of the second half 98 yards for a touchdown in the Cowboys' 36-25 win at Baylor. It marked the longest return of his career, OSU's longest return of the season and the first OSU kickoff return touchdown since Brennan Presley's 100-yard return in last year's win over Oklahoma. Nixon's return also tied for the eighth-longest kickoff return in Cowboy history and marked the longest kickoff return for any Big 12 player this season. The freshman finished the game with three kickoff returns for 131 yards, with his yardage total also ranking as the most for a Big 12 player in a game this season. - Big 12 Football

  On a day when senior quarterback John Rhys Plumlee completed just eight passes, Central Florida scored on a blocked punt and rode four Colton Boomer field goals to a 27-10 win over Georgia Tech on Saturday. "A win is a win, no matter what it looks like," said Plumlee, who has produced two games of 300 passing yards and 100 rushing yards this season. "What stood out today was our defense and special teams." Plumlee did not complete a pass in the first quarter and finished 8 of 16 for 49 yards with an interception and two sacks. He carried 16 times for 100 yards to lead the Knights' ground game.

Plumlee described his performance as "bad. I think I've got to be better and I will be better." RJ Harvey and Isaiah Bowser combined for 143 yards on 31 carries, and the Knights averaged 5.1 yards per rush. "We were having success on the ground so he kept leaning on us," Bowser said. UCF (3-1) drove 71 yards on 20 plays, all of them on the ground, on the game's opening series to take a 3-0 lead on a 21-yard Boomer field goal. Jeff Sims threw a 59-yard touchdown pass to Malachi Carter to give Georgia Tech (1-3) a 7-3 lead in the second quarter, but the Knights got field goals from 21- and 31-yards out and, with :41 left in the first half, Jarvis Ware blocked David Shanahan's punt. Quandric Bullard scooped up the loose ball at the Yellow Jackets' 29 and scored to send UCF into intermission with a 13-7 lead. - Central Florida/AP College Football

  John Rhys Plumlee passed for 339 yards and a touchdown and ran for 121 yards and two more scores to help UCF rally from an early deficit and beat Florida Atlantic 40-14 Saturday night. Plumlee completed 25 of 36 passes and scored on runs of 7 and 5 yards, the latter of which gave UCF (2-1) its first lead at 16-14 midway through the second quarter. His 20-yard TD pass to Javon Baker capped the scoring with 7 minutes to play. Baker finished with seven receptions for 83 yards and Alec Holler added 115 yards on three catches for the Knights. Isaiah Bowser and RJ Harvey scored on third-quarter touchdown runs of 3 and 1 yards, respectively, to make it 30-14 heading into the fourth. Zuberi Mobley, who finished with 10 carries for 83 yards, gave FAU (2-2) a 7-0 lead when he scored on a 15-yard run just 2 minutes into the game and N'Kosi Perry threw a 4-yard touchdown pass to LaJohntay Wester that made it 14-7 at the end of the first quarter. - UCF/AP College Football
