  OCT 10 BIG 12 OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: TCU's Quentin Johnston helped lead No. 17 TCU to a 38-31 win at No. 19 Kansas with a career-high and team-best 14 receptions, which tied for the most by an FBS player this season. His 24-yard touchdown catch with 1:36 to play provided the winning score. The 14 catches were the most by a Horned Frog since Josh Doctson had 18 in a 55-52 win at Texas Tech in 2015. His 206 yards receiving were the most at TCU since Taj Williams had 210 versus Oklahoma in 2016. Johnston posted his sixth career 100-yard game. - Big 12 Football

  TCU had a 10-3 advantage against Kansas heading into halftime and kept that lead in a high-scoring second half as the Horned Frogs beat the Jayhawks, 38-31. Both offenses combined for 56 points after halftime, but it was the TCU defense that made a stop in the game's final moments that clinched the victory. TCU jumps to No. 15 in this week's USA TODAY Sports AFCA Coaches Poll while Kansas drops to No. 20. - American Football Coaches Association

  Max Duggan passed for three touchdowns in the second half, including the game-winning 24-yarder to Quinten Johnston with 1:36 left, and No. 17 TCU beat 19th-ranked Kansas 38-31 on Saturday. The Horned Frogs (5-0, 2-0 Big 12) are out to their best start since 2017 after winning the matchup of surprise unbeatens. Duggan was 23 of 33 for 308 yards and outdueled Kansas backup quarterback Jason Bean in a wild second half. Jalon Daniels, who led the Jayhawks to five straight wins for their best start since 2009, suffered an apparent injury to his right (throwing) shoulder late in the first half. Bean, who started the first 10 games last season, was 16 of 24 for 262 yards and he became the first Kansas quarterback to throw for four touchdowns in a half since Todd Reesling in 2008. Johnston's 206 yards on 14 catches were the most by a TCU receiver since 2016. After combining for just 13 points in the first half, the teams combined for 42 in the third quarter.

What was expected to be an offensive shootout was anything but early. The Horned Frogs settled for a field goal, turned over the ball on downs and punted on their first three possession while the Jayhawks punted twice and failed to convert a fourth-and-5 on their third series. The Jayhawks (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) appeared headed for the go-ahead touchdown in the middle of the second quarter when Daniels fumbled near the goal line. The Horned Frogs went 99 yards in six plays, with Kendre Miller's 1-yard run making it 10-0. Kansas got its first points on Jacob Borcila's 40-yard field goal one play after Daniels was hurt. Bean threw touchdown passes of 12 yards to Tanaka Scott and 8 yards Luke Grimm to put the Jayhawks up 17-10. Duggan found Derius Davis on a 51-yard touchdown pass to tie it, and after Jamoi Hodge picked off Bean at the Kansas 26, TCU regained the lead on a 3-yard run by Duggan. Bean's 38-yard TD pass to Quinton Skinner tied it, but Duggan's 25-yarder to Taye Barber put the Horned Frogs up again. Bean then hit Skinner with a 29-yard TD pass to tie it 31-all with 4:21 left in the game. - TCU/AP College Football

  OCT 3 BIG 12 OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Max Duggan, TCU, QB, Sr.,...Also named Walter Camp National Offensive Player of the Week, Duggan totaled 418 yards and five touchdowns in TCU's 55-24 win over No. 18 Oklahoma. He posted his fourth career 100-yard rushing game and became just the fifth quarterback nationally since 1996 to average at least 23.0 yards per rush on a minimum of five carries. Duggan's 67-yard TD run was the second longest of his career, trailing only his TCU quarterback-record 81-yard scoring rush against Texas Tech in 2020. The senior became just the second FBS player in the last 15 years and first since Louisville's Lamar Jackson in 2016 to have a TD pass and TD run of at least 60 yards in the first quarter of a game. - Big 12 Football

  OCT 2 WALTER CAMP NATIONAL FBS OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: MAX DUGGAN, TCU, Senior, Quarterback, Council Bluffs, IA/Lewis Central HS,...Max Duggan accounted for 418 yards (302 passing, 116 rushing) and five touchdowns as TCU defeated 18th-ranked Oklahoma, 55-24. Duggan completed 23-of-33 passes and three touchdowns, while rushing for two more scores and 116 yards as the Horned Frogs improved to 4-0 for the first time since 2017, and their first win over the Sooners since 2014. Notes: Max Duggan is the 11th TCU player to earn Walter Camp National Player of Week honors (since 2004) and the first since former defensive end Mat Boesen (Nov. 26, 2017). - The Walter Camp Football Foundation

  Max Duggan ran 67 yards for one of two touchdowns and threw for three scores, leading TCU to a 55-24 rout of No. 18 Oklahoma on Saturday in a second consecutive loss for new Sooners coach Brent Venables. OU quarterback Dillon Gabriel was knocked out of the game in the second quarter when he was hit while sliding by TCU linebacker Jamoi Hodge, who was ejected for targeting. Players had to be separated after Hodge's hit while Gabriel stayed down for several minutes, surrounded by the medical staff, before the UCF transfer walked off the field on his own. Pittsburgh transfer Davis Beville replaced him. There was an even longer delay in the fourth quarter when Oklahoma defensive back Damond Harmon was carted off after being immobilized on a stretcher when he was injured in the fourth quarter.

Harmon flashed a thumbs-up as he was put on the cart in an emotional scene that included linebacker Kelvin Gilliam, a childhood friend and high school teammate, appearing to fight back tears. When Lincoln Riley shocked the Sooners by leaving for Southern California, they hired their former defensive coordinator after Venables won two national titles in that role at Clemson. His defense was no match for Duggan and company as Oklahoma lost consecutive regular-season games for just the second time since 1999. The Sooners (3-2, 0-2 Big 12) opened conference with a home loss to Kansas State. It's the most points Oklahoma has allowed since a 63-28 loss to LSU in the 2019 national semifinals. The Horned Frogs (4-0, 1-0) had four touchdowns of at least 62 yards, topped by Taye Barber's 73-yard catch during a 27-point first quarter. TCU led 41-17 at halftime with 479 yards while finishing with 668 yards in coach Sonny Dykes' Big 12 debut after four seasons at crosstown rival SMU. - TCU/AP College Football

  TCU wide receiver Quentin Johnston came into the season as a trendy name to watch, especially for NFL draft Twitter followers. More eyes were on the 6-foot-4 Johnston after last season when he had 634 receiving yards and averaged more than 19 yards per catch. The expectation was Johnston would build on those numbers and solidify himself as a high draft pick for the 2023 draft. Things haven't quite gone as planned yet through the first quarter of the season. Johnston leads the team in receptions with eight, but ranks sixth on the Horned Frogs iin yards and he has yet to find the endzone.

Despite the slow start, Johnson said he isn't discouraged. He said he has focused on how his teammates have thrived around him during TCU's 3-0 start. "I'm not to upset with it. At the end of the day I'm getting doubled a lot, it obviously opens up a lot more opportunities for my teammates," Johnston said. "We've been getting more receivers the ball and we're winning with that so I'm happy." Johnston admitted he had a little frustration after just having three catches against Colorado in the season opener. The slow start plus the injury to Chandler Morris and the running game all played apart in that. After the game, Johnston realized that there was nothing to be upset about. "After that I was like 'Man we won and other people are getting the ball.' I'm happy with everything that's going on," Johnston said. - Fort Worth Star

  Max Duggan completed 22 of 29 passes for 278 yards and three touchdowns and Emari Demercado ran for two fourth-quarter touchdowns in TCU's 42-34 win over SMU on Saturday as coach Sonny Dykes' Frogs won the Iron Skillet rivalry game against the program that he coached the previous four seasons. Dykes' return to the SMU campus, coaching a longtime backyard rival, led to a crowd of 35,569 - the largest for a regular-season game in 23-year-old Ford Stadium and the school's first sellout since 2015. What was naturally seen by SMU fans as a disappointing departure, led to an exchange of words back and forth during the offseason. Mustangs receiver Rashee Rice, who went into Saturday's game ranked first in FBS receiving yardage per game (163.7) and second in catches (9.3), posted soon after Dykes' move that "No one comes to Texas to Fort Worth". "I'm glad this is over," said Dykes, who faced a similar situation last year taking SMU to Louisiana Tech, where he coached from 2010-12. "I'm hopeful now we can go on and I coach my team and not have to deal with some this stuff you have to deal with." Duggan threw 18 yards to Savion Williams in the first quarter, 8 yards to Jared Wiley in the second period and 80 yards on a shuffle-pass jet sweep to Derius Davis to give the Frogs (3-0) a 28-7 lead.

Demercado scored from 1-yard out on a drive that began at TCU's 37 following an interception by Josh Newton to put the Frogs ahead 35-21 midway through the fourth. With SMU within eight points in the closing minutes, Demercado burst through the middle and raced 63 yards for another score with 2:31 to play. Tre Siggers rushed for three short touchdowns for SMU (2-2), including a 2-yarder with 5:14 left to get within 35-27 but a two-point pass failed. SMU quarterback Tanner Mordecai threw a 35-yard scoring pass to Jake Bailey with 1:04 left to cap the scoring. Mordecai passed for 372 yards with two touchdowns and two interceptions, and Rashee Rice caught six passes for 74 yards. SMU coach Rhett Lashlee said Mordecai and Rice both played hurt throughout the second half. - TCU/AP College Football

  Chance Nolan threw for 276 yards and four touchdowns and Oregon State remained undefeated with a 68-28 victory over Montana State at Portland's Providence Park on Saturday night. Anthony Gould caught a pair of touchdown passes and returned a punt for another score for the Beavers, who are 3-0 to open the season for the first time since 2014. Providence Park is normally home to Major League Soccer's Portland Timbers and the Portland Thorns of the National Women's Soccer League. Oregon State hadn't played in Portland since 1986. Montana State is using a two-quarterback system this season, with Tommy Mellott and Wyoming transfer Sean Chambers. Mellott threw for 101 yards with three interceptions, while running for 135 yards. Chambers ran for 35 yards and three touchdowns.

The Bobcats (2-1) - who haven't defeated an FBS team since 2006, when they beat current Pac-12 member Colorado 19-10 - were coming off a 63-13 victory over Morehead State in Bozeman. Deshawn Fenwick gave the Beavers the early lead with a 25-yard scoring run up the middle. Montana State answered with Chambers' 7-yard keeper on the Bobcats' first series of the game. Nolan hit Tre'Shaun Harrison with a 6-yard scoring pass to give the Beavers a 14-7 lead. Mellott was intercepted on Montana State's subsequent drive and Oregon State took advantage, scoring on Nolan's 1-yard keeper. But Marqui Johnson scored for the Bobcats on a 98-yard kickoff return to close the gap to 21-14. Silas Bolden scored for the Beavers on a 24-yard pass from Nolan midway though the second quarter. Nolan added a 9-yard scoring pass to Gould to make it 34-14 going into halftime. - Oregon State/AP College Football

  SEPT 5 BIG 12 SPECIAL TEAMS PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Derius Davis, TCU, WR/PR/KR, Sr.,...Davis changed the game's momentum with his 60-yard punt return for a touchdown in TCU's 38-13 win at Colorado. Trailing 3-0 at the time, TCU used the senior's return to take a lead it would not relinquish. Davis tied TCU's program record with his fourth career punt return for a touchdown. He totaled 72 punt return yards in the game while adding a 27-yard rushing touchdown and two receptions for 25 yards. - Big 12 Football

  Chance Nolan passed for two touchdowns and Oregon State's defense forced five turnovers in a season-opening 34-17 victory over Boise State on Saturday. The Beavers, who are hoping to build on last season's first bowl-game appearance since 2013, took control early behind their opportunistic defense and a few big plays offensively. Oregon State snapped its six-game losing streak in season openers. Boise State received a lift off the bench from backup quarterback Taylen Green, who replaced an ineffective Hank Bachmeier and sparked a second-half comeback. Bachmeier, a fourth-year starter, was pulled in the second quarter and did not return after tossing two interceptions and losing a fumble. He did not play in the second half.

Green showed promise, especially as a runner with 102 yards on the ground. His 74-yard touchdown gallop late in the third quarter cut Oregon State's lead to 27-10. He also scored on a 4-yard keeper early in the fourth quarter that brought Boise State within 27-17. With the Beavers' offense in neutral, short-yardage specialist Jack Colletto broke loose up the middle on a third-and-2 play for a 41-yard touchdown with 10:39 remaining to provide the final margin of victory. The Beavers opened the scoring on tight end Luke Musgrave's 26-yard touchdown catch, which followed Bachmeier's second interception of the first quarter. After a three-and-out by Boise State, Nolan hit Tyjon Lindsey for a 47-yard touchdown, giving Oregon State a 14-0 lead at 1:15 of the first quarter. - Oregon State/AP College Football

  Derius Davis scored on a 60-yard punt return and a 27-yard reverse to help TCU open the Sonny Dykes era with a 38-13 win over Colorado on Friday night. Dykes took over for longtime TCU coach Gary Patterson after spending the last four seasons at SMU, where he revived the program. Maybe it was the delayed start - about 35 minutes due to lightning in the area - but the Horned Frogs couldn’t get much going early. Once they did, the Buffaloes couldn’t stop their speed. The Horned Frogs outscored Colorado 31-7 after halftime to turn a close game into a rout. The Buffaloes entered the game on their home turf as a 13 1/2-point underdog, according to FanDuel Sportsbook. Davis ignited a sluggish TCU squad early in the second quarter by fielding a punt, finding room around the edge and sprinting down the sideline for his fourth career punt-return touchdown. That ties KaVontae Turpin for the most in school history. Davis scored in the fourth quarter on a trick play to make it 31-6 and seal the win. - TCU/AP College Football

  Typically during the preseason the most often-asked-about player is a team's starting quarterback or star player on either side of the football. For Arkansas this August, perhaps no one has been mentioned or brought up more in post-practice press conferences than Toledo transfer receiver Matt Landers. A close second might be Oklahoma transfer Jadon Haselwood or Terry Hampton, a new defensive lineman from Arkansas State. Warren Thompson, who arrived at Arkansas prior to last season as a walk-on receiver from Florida State, may be on the opposite end of the spectrum. But in the few times reporters have inquired about the rangy receiver, rave reviews followed.

Offensive coordinator Kendal Briles said Friday after the team's 13th practice of fall camp that Thompson has been as consistent as any of his receivers. "He's done a really good job," Briles said. "Warren, from last year to where he is right now, is a different guy - not anything from a character standpoint and how he's acting, but just his knowledge. He sees things. He's able to do some things on the field instead of just reacting because he really didn't know what's going on. "He's seeing things. He's talking about it." - Northwest Arkansas Times
