Jett Duffey threw for three touchdowns, including a 95-yarder to Hezekiah Grimsley as Hampton defeated Howard 48-32 before 14,000 fans on Saturday in the inaugural Truth and Service Classic. The 95-yard hookup from Duffey to Grimsley, who made the catch at about his own 25 and outran the defense the rest of the way, was the longest scoring pass in, not just Hampton's, but Big South Conference history. Saturday's 96th matchup between the two HBCU programs was the first college football game played at Audi Field, home of the D.C. United of Major League Soccer. It was also the fifth straight for Hampton in the so-called Battle of the Real HU. Vice President Kamala Harris, a Howard alumna, made a surprise appearance and walked onto the field for the pregame coin toss. It was won by Howard, which deferred to Hampton. - AP College Football

11/09/19 - Jett Duffey, rSr/2022, Hampton, 6-0, 196 (DS#40 QB) + More +

Texas Tech quarterback Jett Duffey continues to give West Virginia fits. The junior moved the offense at will in the first half and the Red Raiders used a fast start to beat West Virginia 38-17 on Saturday, handing the Mountaineers their fifth straight loss. Duffey threw for one touchdown to boost his total to 10 scores with two interceptions in his last five games after taking over in mid-September for the injured Alan Bowman. "We came out with a great focus. We have to continue it," Jett said. "I always believe in myself, I always believe that if I work hard and do what I need to do, then I will achieve what I want to achieve, no matter what's in my way."

Ta'Zhawn Henry and SaRodorick Thompson each had two first-half short scoring runs for Texas Tech (4-5, 2-4 Big 12), which broke a three-game losing streak and now has a bowl bid to fight for with three games left. "A lot of people are counting us out," said Texas Tech coach Matt Wells. "(We have) a little underdog mentality right now." West Virginia (3-6, 1-5) fell into a last-place tie with idle Kansas. - Texas Tech/AP College Football
