12/04/22 - Carson Steele, Jr/2024, UCLA, 6-1, 228 (DS#2 FB) + More +

The transfer portal is in full swing and Ball State's best player doesn't look like he'll be returning to Muncie next season. Sophomore running back Carson Steele, who finished the regular season sixth in the Football Bowl Subdivision with 1,556 rushing yards, announced his intention to enter the portal Saturday in a tweet, where he thanked God and Ball State's players, coaches and staff. "My family and I have decided that it would be best for me to enter the transfer portal for my remaining years of eligibility," Steele said in a tweet. "Again, I would like to say thank you to Ball State for the last two years and I wish nothing but success for their program as they move on."

Steele recorded 2,447 rushing yards, 323 receiving yards and 22 total touchdowns in his first two seasons. In Ball State single-season records, Steele finished third in rushing yards (1,556) and tied for third in touchdowns (14) this season. Steele is 10th in career rushing yards at Ball State. Steele isn't the first BSU player to enter the portal this season, but his decision is certainly the biggest blow for the Cardinals, who finished 5-7 in 2022, moving forward. - Star Press

11/25/22 - Dorian Thompson-Robinson, rSr/2023, UCLA, 6-2, 203 (DS#9 QB) + More +

Dorian Thompson-Robinson ran for two touchdowns and passed for another as No. 17 UCLA rallied from an 11-point deficit to beat California 35-28 on Saturday. The Bruins (9-3, 6-3 Pac-12, No. 16 CFP) racked up 541 yards of offense, including 352 on the ground, and rebounded from a narrow defeat to USC the previous week that eliminated them from league title contention. Thompson-Robinson passed for 189 yards and gained another 88 on the ground. Zach Charbonnet rushed for 119 yards and a score, and he converted a fourth-and-2 run in Cal territory late in the game that chewed up valuable time. TJ Harden added 89 yards rushing on 12 carries for the Bruins. The Bears (4-8, 2-7) got a fourth-down stop that gave them the ball back trailing 35-28 with 1:58 remaining. But Jaydn Ott fumbled after a fourth-down reception that would have converted a first down, and Carl Jones Jr. recovered to ice the game for UCLA.

Cal's Jack Plummer threw for 294 yards and four touchdowns. Jeremiah Hunter had eight catches for 153 yards and two scores. UCLA trailed 21-10 with 58 seconds left before halftime. But Thompson-Robinson led his team on a 75-yard drive that took 40 seconds, capping it with a 19-yard touchdown scramble that brought UCLA within 21-17 at the intermission. UCLA scored on its first possession of the second half to take the lead. But Plummer hit Ott for an 8-yard touchdown that put Cal up 28-27 with 11:16 remaining. Then Thompson-Robinson engineered a 73-yard scoring drive capped by Charbonnet's 5-yard touchdown. A 2-point conversion pass to Jake Bobo gave UCLA a 35-28 lead. UCLA had 113 rushing yards in the first quarter alone and moved the ball at will. But Nicholas Barr-Mira missed a 33-yard field goal, and penalties forced the Bruins to settle for a field goal on another drive. They led 10-7 midway through the second quarter. That gave Plummer time to find his rhythm. The transfer from Purdue threw three first-half touchdown passes, including two to Jeremiah Hunter, who beat one-on-one coverage for 38- and 22-yard scores. - UCLA/AP College Football

11/19/22 - Bryon Threats, rSr/2026, UCLA, 5-10, 195 (DS#999 FS) + More +

Jacob Dingel and Bryon Threats intercepted passes, Noah Potter and Dontay Corleone recovered fumbles and No. 22 Cincinnati beat Temple 23-3 on Saturday to move closer to the American Athletic Conference championship game. Cincinnati (9-2, 6-1) can guarantee a berth in its fourth straight conference title game and earn home-field advantage in the Dec. 3 contest with a win in its regular-season finale Friday against Tulane, with whom it is presently tied atop the standings.

The Bearcats could also gain entry into the title game depending on how Central Florida - which was upset by Navy on Saturday - fares against South Florida. This is the final year in the AAC for Cincinnati, with the Bearcats moving to the Big 12. A week after quarterback E.J. Warner - the son of Pro Football Hall of Famer Kurt Warner - set a school record for passing yards with 486 yards and had three TD passes for Temple (3-8, 1-6) in a 43-36 loss at Houston, Cincinnati got the four turnovers and held the rushing attack to 35 yards. - Cincinnati/AP College Football

NOV 7 MAC WEST DIVISION OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Carson Steele, Ball State, RB, So., Greenwood, Ind. (Center Grove HS),...Ball State rode a career-high 192 rushing yards from running back Carson Steele to earn a hard-fought 27-20 victory at Kent State, handing the Flashes their first home loss since 2019. Steele's 192 yards are the fourth-most produced by a MAC back this season and tied for the sixth-most by a Cardinal in a road conference game ever, matching Caleb Huntley in 2019. Steele became the eighth player in the FBS to break 1,000 yards this season, and his current total of 1,082 ranks fourth in the country. Steele had 85 yards on 11 carries in the fourth quarter alone to key Ball State's fourth double-digit comeback of the season, which is the most in the country. His touchdown in the second quarter sparked a 20-0 scoring spree for the Cardinals en route to a 27-20 win. Steele is one of just five players in the nation to have seven 100-yard games on the ground this season. - MAC Football

11/06/22 - Dorian Thompson-Robinson, rSr/2023, UCLA, 6-2, 203 (DS#9 QB) + More +

Dorian Thompson-Robinson hurdled a defender on a 33-yard touchdown run, one of his two rushing scores, and also passed for two TDs as No. 10 UCLA held off Arizona State 50-36 on Saturday night. Thompson-Robinson threw an interception on the first play from scrimmage, and the Sun Devils turned it into a field goal. But then he led drives of 75, 77, 91 and 90 yards to give UCLA (8-1, 5-1 Pac-12) a 28-10 halftime lead that grew to 35-10 on his 4-yard run in the third quarter. Arizona State quarterback Trenton Bourguet threw for 349 yards and two touchdowns, and the Sun Devils (3-6, 2-4) scored 18 straight points to close to 42-36 on Xazavian Valladay's 1-yard TD run and Bourguet's 2-point conversion pass with 6:24 left.

UCLA put it away on its next possession on Colson Yankoff's 1-yard touchdown run with 2:30 remaining. "I didn't personally have any doubt," Thompson-Robinson said. "For me, it was really easy. I just had to put and read my keys. We knew what we were going to get, and we got what we expected." The Bruins, one of three teams with one Pac-12 loss perched behind first-place Oregon, had 402 yards rushing. Thompson-Robinson finished with 169 yards passing and 120 yards on the ground. UCLA played without Pac-12 leading rusher Zach Charbonnet, who was in uniform and active on the sideline but wore bandages on his left triceps and left calf. Wide receiver-turned-running back Kazmeir Allen had 137 yards rushing, including a touchdown, and 63 more receiving for UCLA. "I'm just a ballplayer," said Allen, saying he spent one day at practice last week at running back. "I barely knew Zach was unavailable until the beginning of the game." Keegan Jones added 98 yards rushing and scored two touchdowns while stepping in for Charbonnet, who was third in Division I with 137.7 yards rushing per game. - UCLA/AP College Football

Carson Steele rushed for 192 yards and a score, John Paddock threw for 242 yards and two touchdowns, and Ball State beat Kent State 27-20 on Tuesday night. Tied at 20-all, Steele led a seven-play, 75-yard drive ending in Paddock's 8-yard scoring pass to Tanner Koziol with 3:21 remaining in the fourth quarter. Kent State got to its 48 before turning it over on downs and Ball State ran out the clock.

Jayshon Jackson had a team-high 10 catches for 102 yards and a touchdown for Ball State (5-4, 3-2 Mid-American Conference). Steele, who went over the century mark for the seventh time this season, had a 37-yard run during the Cardinals go-ahead drive in the fourth. Paddock was intercepted on his second throw of the game, leading to Kent State's second field goal for a 6-0 lead. Paddock later connected with Jackson on a 43-yard touchdown to give Ball State its first lead at 14-13 late in the second quarter, and the Cardinals led 17-13 at the break. Marquez Cooper carried it 32 times for 168 yards and a touchdown for Kent State (3-6, 2-3). Devontez Walker made his eighth touchdown catch of the season. - Ball State/AP College Football

10/30/22 - Zach Charbonnet, Sr/2023, UCLA, 6-0, 222 (DS#3 RB) + More +

Zach Charbonnet scored three touchdowns and rushed for 198 yards, his fifth straight 100-yard game, as No. 12 UCLA bounced back with a 38-13 victory over Stanford on Saturday night. It was the sixth 100-yard game of the season for Charbonnet, who also had 61 yards receiving on five catches. The junior leads the nation in all-purpose yards per game at 170.9 and the Pac-12 with 964 yards rushing. The Bruins ran for 324 yards and averaged 7.2 yards per carry as they improved to 7-1 overall and 4-1 in Pac-12 play. It is UCLA's best start since 2005, when it won its first eight games. UCLA's Dorian Thompson-Robinson had 249 scrimmage yards, including 199 passing, and rushed for a touchdown.

Stanford (3-5, 1-5) had a two-game winning streak snapped but scored its first touchdown in 11 quarters when Tanner McKee connected with Benjamin Yurosek on fourth-and-goal from the UCLA 2-yard line. It was the Cardinal's first touchdown in 170 minutes, 54 seconds. McKee completed 13 of 29 passes for 115 yards, one week after throwing for 320 yards. Stanford scored on its opening possession on Joshua Karty's 22-yard field goal before UCLA took the lead with two touchdowns in 20 seconds. Thompson-Robinson capped a 12-play, 75-yard drive with a 3-yard run off right guard to give the Bruins a 7-3 lead with 6:05 remaining in the first quarter. The Cardinal turned it over on the first play of their ensuing drive when Darius Muasau picked off McKee. Charbonnet then went 23 yards up the middle on the next play to put UCLA up by double digits. The Bruins scored on their first four drives. Charbonnet scored from 1 yard out in the second quarter to make it 24-3 at halftime and added a 37-yard TD late in the third quarter. - UCLA/AP College Football
