  Will Hammond exited No. 14 Texas Tech's game against Oklahoma State on Saturday with an apparent injury, prompting injured starting quarterback Behren Morton to change from street clothes to his uniform at halftime in case he was needed to finish the game. Morton was still on the sideline when third-stringer Mitch Griffis threw for a touchdown and ran for score in the third quarter to push the Red Raiders' lead to 42-0. Hammond appeared in injure his lower right leg on a run in the second quarter. There was no announcement from Texas Tech.

It was the second consecutive start for Hammond in place of Morton, who re-injured his right knee in a victory over Kansas on Oct. 11. Hammond started Texas Tech's first loss, 26-22 at No. 24 Arizona State last week. Hammond had a 26-yard touchdown pass to J'Koby Williams on a screen. Griffis' first play was a 3-yard loss on a fourth-and-1 keeper, but he threw a 42-yard TD pass to Caleb Douglas on Texas Tech's first possession of the second half. Griffis' 1-yard scoring run came late in the third quarter. - AP College Football

  Missouri quarterback Beau Pribula dislocated his left ankle and will have an MRI exam Sunday, coach Eli Drinkwitz said Saturday after the 15th-ranked Tigers' 17-10 loss to No. 10 Vanderbilt. Drinkwitz said Pribula didn't have any broken bones but needed his ankle popped back into joint. "Don't have a timetable for his return, but it could be a while," Drinkwitz said. Pribula was hurt early in the third quarter running out of the shotgun on fourth-and-goal at the Vanderbilt 2. Miles Capers and Bryan Longwell stopped Pribula after a 1-yard gain with 11:15 left in the third quarter of a 3-3 game. One defender landed on Pribula's ankle as he was folded backward from defenders coming the other direction.

The quarterback didn't get up, and trainers quickly brought a bag out and placed an air cast over his left ankle. Then he was put on a cart and taken for further treatment. The Tigers turned to freshman Matt Zollers. He came in having completed all six of his pass attempts for 40 yards with one touchdown. He also has a rushing touchdown. Zollers gave Missouri a chance until time expired, throwing a 6-yard TD pass to Jude James tying it up at 10 early in the fourth quarter. Zoller moved the Tigers down the field and connected with Kevin Coleman Jr. for a 36-yard pass as time expired only to have the receiver ruled on review short of the goal line. The freshman finished 14 of 23 for 138 yards passing. - AP College Football

  Maddux Madsen, Sire Gaines and Dylan Riley had touchdown runs and Boise State beat Nevada 24-3 on Friday night. Madsen completed 15 of 28 passes for 174 yards with an interception for Boise State (6-2, 4-0 Mountain West Conference). Nevada (1-7, 0-4) took a 3-0 lead on Joe McFadden's 40-yard field goal and Colton Boomer kicked a 21-yarder on the final play of the first quarter to tie it. Gaines' 2-yard touchdown run capped a 13-play 94-yard drive with 1:35 left before halftime and the Broncos moved in front 10-3 at the break.

Boise State got the ball on the Nevada 6-yard line after a muffed punt and Madsen scored on a 1-yard sneak on fourth-and-goal to push the Broncos' lead to 17-3 with 1:41 left in the third quarter. Dylan Riley's 1-yard scoring plunge finished a 15-play 80-yard drive with 3:31 remaining in the game to set the final margin.

  Clemson leading receiver Bryant Wesco Jr. will miss the rest of the season after sustaining a back injury against SMU this past weekend. Coach Dabo Swinney said Monday that Wesco had a "very serious" back injury but did not disclose more details. Wesco was injured on a punt return, when he landed almost directly on his head/neck area after a low tackle sent him somersaulting in the air upside down. Though he got up and walked to the sideline on his own, he never returned to the field and was taken to the hospital in Greenville, South Carolina, for further evaluation. Swinney said Wesco was released from the hospital Monday and was resting at home, and that the injury could have been far worse. "It was a very, very scary injury, and the doctors did an amazing job," Swinney said in a teleconference with local reporters. "The doctors are very confident he'll make a full recovery. Definitely something that'll keep him out the rest of this season, but thankful that all indications are he's going to be OK. Just a real blessing for that." Wesco leads Clemson with 31 catches for 537 yards and six touchdowns. He thanked those who sent him prayers on his Instagram stories Monday. - ESPN College Football

  No. 16 Missouri may have delivered the knockout blow to Auburn coach Hugh Freeze. Beau Pribula scored on a 3-yard run in the second overtime, lifting Missouri to a 23-17 victory over reeling Auburn on Saturday night. Ahmad Hardy ran for 58 yards and two scores for Missouri (6-1, 2-1 Southeastern Conference). The Tigers bounced back from a home loss to Alabama to beat the other team from the state. "We talked all week about how the game was played between the lines, not to let the exterior factors of the noise and the stadium affect us," Missouri coach Eli Drinkwitz said. "The guys did a great job, and I just thought there was a refusal to lose."

Missouri got a defensive stop on fourth down on the final possession in overtime to seal the one-possession victory. "This just sucks," Freeze said. "This stinks, and there's nothing you can say to make anyone feel better in that locker room. Our fans are incredible, and we'd love to be at Toomer's (Corner) with them right now. But we're still obviously not finding ways to win games." Auburn has dropped 11 of its last 13 SEC games, and Freeze is 5-15 in league play. Pribula threw for 252 yards, with two interceptions, and ran for 28 more. Hardy's short run with 5:07 to go in regulation tied the game at 17. Auburn (3-4, 0-4) intercepted Pribula's pass in the final drive of regulation to send it to overtime, but Alex McPherson missed a field goal on Auburn's first possession. It was his third miss of the night. Blake Craig missed a winning attempt on the other end for Missouri. Auburn opened the scoring with Jackson Arnold scoring from a yard out. But coach Hugh Freeze's team - like so many other times in his three seasons - had trouble moving the ball for most of the game. Arnold finished with 207 yards passing and his first interception of the season. Freeze, however, has hopeful they can turn it around. "If you look at this stretch of games, they were all really good teams," Freeze said. "And we were really close. Eventually they'll start to flip our way." Jeremiah Cobb had 111 yards on the ground. Cam Coleman caught six passes for 108 yards. - Missouri/AP College Football

  Mateen Bhaghani kicked a 23-yard field goal with two seconds to play, and UCLA beat Maryland 20-17 Saturday night to extend its improbable season turnaround with a third consecutive victory. Nico Iamaleava passed for 221 yards and led three scoring drives in the final six minutes despite going down with an apparent knee injury during that wild stretch for the Bruins (3-4, 3-1 Big Ten), who managed to stay on the upswing in their roller coaster of a season. "I think it's all about belief, (and) the guys believe," UCLA interim head coach Tim Skipper said. "There's nothing that happened throughout the game that's going to take our confidence away, and you don't really know that until you get in a tight game like that. I found out today that these guys believe."

Iamaleava threw a go-ahead, 14-yard touchdown pass to Mikey Matthews with 3:33 to play, and Bhaghani's first field goal put the Bruins up 17-10 with 2:09 to play shortly after Scooter Jackson intercepted Malik Washington's pass deep in Maryland territory. But Washington, who passed for 210 yards, led the Terrapins (4-3, 1-3) on a dramatic drive, hitting Jalil Farooq for an 8-yard TD with 40 seconds left. Iamaleava, who appeared to have a serious injury only moments earlier, returned to the field and drove the Bruins 68 yards in 31 seconds. "I knew with Nico, when I saw him start to walk off and his face started to come back normal, I was like, "Hey, we have a shot here," Skipper said with a grin. Iamaleava completed two passes for 33 yards before Anthony Frias - who made an early 55-yard touchdown run for UCLA - made a 35-yard run to the Maryland 5 to set up Bhaghani's tiebreaking field goal. "It just shows how much of a leader (Iamaleava) is," Matthews said. "He came back and pushed through. He has that dog in him, no matter what." The Bruins rallied to win despite committing three turnovers in these schools' first meeting since 1955, including an interception returned 8 yards for a touchdown by Maryland's Jamare Glasker in the third quarter. UCLA also went nine straight drives without scoring before Matthews' TD catch. - UCLA/AP College Football

  Jack Smith caught two touchdown passes, Jalen B. Lee had two interceptions, and the South Dakota State defense forced four turnovers in a 35-14 win over Murray State on Saturday. Smith had 10-yard and 46-yard touchdown catches on either side of halftime, tallying 91 yards on five catches. Alex Bullock led the FCS No. 2 Jackrabbits (7-0, 4-0 Missouri Valley Football Conference) with 99 yards on eight catches. Lee secured his first interception on the opening possession.

  Clemson wide receiver Bryant Wesco Jr. was hospitalized after landing awkwardly on his neck after getting flipped in the air on a punt return in the third quarter of Saturday in a 35-24 loss to SMU. Clemson coach Dabo Swinney described the injury as "serious," but did not elaborate on Wesco's condition. Swinney later asked at his news conference that fans keep Wesco in their prayers, reiterating the serious nature of the injury. The crowd drew a collective gasp when Wesco raced up the middle of the field after fielding a punt and was hit low, causing him to flip high in the air and land on his neck. The neck bent awkwardly as he hit the ground. However, Wesco bounced right up and appeared fine as he jogged to the sideline without receiving any medical attention on the field. Wesco was looked at on the sideline by trainers. He did not return to the game. It wasn't made public that he had been transported to the hospital until Swinney made the announcement after the game. Bryant had 31 catches for 537 yards and six touchdowns coming into the game, but did not have a catch Saturday. - AP College Football

  Ta'Quan Roberson passed for a career-high 403 yards, firing a 16-yard touchdown pass to Victor Snow with 21 seconds left and Buffalo stunned Massachusetts 28-21 on Saturday after a late celebration penalty cost the Minutemen their first victory of the season. AJ Hairston threw two touchdown passes and UMass (0-7, 0-3 Mid-American Conference) led 21-20 after Jeremiah McGill picked off Roberson with 59 seconds remaining. But the Minutemen were flagged for celebrating the pick and had to start their drive at their 10-yard line instead of the 25. After two running plays lost 5 yards, Hairston threw incomplete and Buffalo (4-3, 3-0) got the ball back at midfield with 41 seconds left. Roberson hit Jasaiah Gathings for a 14- and 20-yard gains before Snow's go-ahead catch.

Kezion Dia-Johnson hauled in his first career touchdown pass on a 27-yard strike from Hairston and freshman Brandon Hood raced 90 yards for a touchdown on a first-down play as the Minutemen took a 14-3 second-quarter lead. Hood's scoring run was the longest for UMass since Tom Dicker had a 94-yarder against Boston University in 1996. Roberson connected with Snow for a 23-yard touchdown and Buffalo trailed 14-10 at halftime. The Bulls grabbed a 17-14 lead on Terrance Shelton Jr.'s 1-yard touchdown run in the third quarter. Max Dowling caught a pass from Hairston, bounced off a tackler and rumbled down the sideline for a 77-yard score as the Minutemen moved in front 21-17 with their first second-half touchdown of the season. Jack Howes had a field goal hit the upright before going through with 25 seconds left to cut it to 21-20 heading to the final quarter. Roberson completed 36 of 55 passes - both career highs - with an interception. Nik McMilian and Snow combined for 18 catches and 231 yards. Hairston had 119 yards on 6-for-14 passing and Hood carried 24 times for 179 yards. - Buffalo/AP College Football

  Bryson Barnes had a touchdown pass and a touchdown run and Tanner Rinker kicked two of his three field goals in the fourth quarter to help Utah State hold off San Jose State 30-25 on Friday night. Utah State (4-3, 2-1 Mountain West Conference) took a 27-25 lead on Rinker's 45-yard field goal at the end of a 14-play drive with 6:09 left to play. Rinker added a 44-yarder to cap the scoring with 1:58 left. Denis Lynch kicked a 37-yard field goal on the opening drive to give San Jose State (2-5, 1-2) the lead. Receiver Braden Pegan answered with a 2-yard touchdown run on Utah State's first drive and the Aggies led 7-3. Walker Eget connected with Leland Smith for a 43-yard gain with 3:30 left before halftime. Six plays later Eget hit Lamar Radcliffe for a 15-yard touchdown and a 9-7 Spartans' lead after a missed extra-point kick.

Utah State used the final minute to get a 31-yard field goal from Rinker for a 10-9 lead at halftime. Barnes fired a 74-yard scoring strike to Anthony Garcia three plays into the third quarter, but Steve Chavez-Soto scored on a 66-yard run three plays later to cut it to 17-16. Barnes scored on a 2-yard run, but Lynch kicked a 35-yard field goal and the Spartans trailed 24-19 after three quarters. Eget and Smith teamed up for a 45-yard touchdown with 11:48 remaining and San Jose State led 25-24 after Eget's two-point pass was unsuccessful. Barnes completed 22 of 31 passes for 326 yards and added 54 yards on 16 rushes. Garcia had three receptions for 121 yards. Eget finished with 340 yards on 27-for-49 passing. Smith finished with four catches for 116 yards, while Kyri Shoels had seven receptions for 104 yards. Chavez-Soto carried 11 times for 102 yards. - Utah State/AP College Football

  Darius Taylor ran for 148 yards and a touchdown, Drake Lindsey completed 16 of 20 passes for 153 yards and a score and Minnesota sacked quarterback Dylan Raiola nine times in a 24-6 victory over No. 25 Nebraska on Friday night. The Gophers (5-2, 3-1 Big Ten) have won six straight against the Cornhuskers (5-2, 2-2), who fell short in their bid to win back-to-back road games in consecutive weeks for the first time since 2006. Minnesota coach P.J. Fleck improved to 7-1 against Nebraska, which hasn't won in Minneapolis since 2015. Raiola completed 17 of 25 passes for 177 yards for the Huskers, who spent part of a short week addressing rumors of coach Matt Rhule's candidacy for the vacant Penn State job.

Anthony Smith and Karter Menz each had 2 1/2 sacks for Minnesota. Aided by the program's most sacks since Fleck became head coach in 2017, the Gophers held Nebraska to a season-low 36 yards rushing. Lindsey found Le'Meke Brockington in the front corner of the end zone on a 20-yard touchdown pass to make it 14-6 with 2:36 left in the third quarter. A fourth-down defensive holding call kept the 98-yard, 14-play drive intact. A pass-interference penalty negated a Nebraska interception on Minnesota's next possession, capped by Taylor's 1-yard touchdown run. Minnesota led 7-6 at halftime thanks to a 1-yard, tush-push score by Lindsey 1:40 into the second quarter. Taylor's 71-yard run down the right sideline set up the touchdown and eclipsed the running back's 44 yards in the previous two games, his first since missing two contests with an injury. - Minnesota/AP College Football
