  Elijah Davis and Blake Watson scored touchdowns three minutes apart and Old Dominion rallied in the fourth quarter to defeat Middle Tennessee 24-17 on Saturday. The Monarchs (5-6, 4-3 Conference USA) entered the final quarter tied at 10-10 with Middle Tennessee (5-6, 3-4) driving to a first-and-goal. The Monarchs stopped the threat with R'Tarriun Johnson's fourth-down tackle for an 11-yard loss.

Six plays later, Davis broke free for a 45-yard touchdown run and, after holding Middle Tennessee to a three-and-out, Watson scored from the 4. The big play in that drive was Hayden Wolff's 60-yard pass to Ali Jennings on first down. The Blue Raiders cut the gap to 24-17 when Jaylin Lane caught a 26-yard TD pass from Nicholas Vattiato with four minutes left, and had one more chance but Brad Anderson fumbled with 2:23 remaining. Jason Henderson forced the fumble, Devin Brandt-Epps recovered and ODU ran out the clock. - Old Dominion/AP College Football

  D.J. Mack, Jr. rushed for three touchdowns as Old Dominion piled up a program-record 358 rushing yards to defeat Hampton 47-7 on Saturday night. The victory gave first-year coach Ricky Rahne a win in his debut before 18,363 at S.B. Ballard Stadium and ended the Monarch's 12-game losing streak that dated back to the 2019 opener - a span of 741 days. Mack scored on runs of 13, 3 and 4 yards and also threw a two-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Spencer. Nick Rice kicked four field goals. Five Monarchs gained the record 358 yards rushing on 54 carries. The previous best had been 340 yards.

Mack also passed for 162 yards as Old Dominion (1-1) rebounded from a 42-10 opening loss at Wake Forest by gaining 572 yards total offense while holding the Pirates(1-1) to 167. Rahne was hired away from Penn State, where he was offensive coordinator, after the 2019 season and waited 21 months for his first win with Old Dominion as the Monarchs sat out 2020 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Elijah Davis rushed eight times for 109 yards in the first half before heading to the bench with an injury. He was replaced by Jon-Luke Peaker, who rushed 18 times for 141 yards. Jett Duffey passed for 83 yards and a touchdown for Hampton (1-1). - Old Dominion/AP College Football

  Aaron Young considers himself an all-purpose back that can do it all. The Rutgers offense can take another step forward this fall if it can get more out of him. "He's a running back. That's what he is. But he can go anywhere," coach Greg Schiano said. "He can line up outside at wideout and be proficient at that, he's a really good special teams. He's a very valuable guy to our football team, and really a smart player. We're going to lean on him quite a bit."

Young fits offensive coordinator Sean Gleeson's creative scheme well. At 5-foot-10 and 205 pounds, he's sturdy but shifty; best suited to make things happen in space but also capable of running between the tackles. His status as a member of the backfield is without doubt, but he can step right in as a receiver without missing a stride. But it felt at times last season like the Scarlet Knights were just not maximizing his abilities. - Star Ledger

  Nebraska reserve wide receiver Demariyon Houston will continue his college career elsewhere. The redshirt freshman is entering his name into the transfer portal Saturday, the Journal Star confirmed. Houston acknowledged the move on Twitter as well. He thanked the coaching staff and professors at UNL, too. Houston, an Oklahoma City native, came to Nebraska as part of the 2019 recruiting class but wasn't able to crack NU's receiving rotation in either of his first two seasons on campus. He leaves without having appeared in a game for the Huskers. Head coach Scott Frost on Thursday evening mentioned him among a long list of players he thought had improved at receiver over the spring, but Houston was facing a long climb up the depth chart after spending much of the 2020 season on the scout team. - Lincoln Journal Star

  Penn State redshirt sophomore tight end Zack Kuntz entered the transfer portal as a graduate transfer on Wednesday afternoon, according to 247Sports. Kuntz, a former four-star recruit in the Class of 2018, according to 247Sports, appeared in seven games for the Nittany Lions last season but didn't catch a single pass. He was listed second on the depth chart, along with freshman tight end Theo Johnson, toward the end of the year after star redshirt junior tight end Pat Freiermuth underwent season-ending shoulder surgery in November. The 6-foot-7, 258-pound Camp Hill native arrived at Penn State as the eighth-best player in the Nittany Lions' sixth-ranked 2018 recruiting class. Kuntz came in with Freiermuth and was the higher-rated player of the duo. In his three years with the program, Kuntz appeared in 21 games, totaling three receptions for 26 yards. - Centre Times

  Darriel "DJ" Mack Jr. remains in Florida, but he's coming home later this month to stay. The former Norview High star, who spent the past three seasons at Central Florida, announced last month that he's transferring to Old Dominion.

He had his coming-out party as a redshirt freshman when he played in 10 games, including three starts. He threw for 619 yards and three touchdowns, and also rushed for 337 yards and six touchdowns. - The Virginian Pilot
