WEEK 7 BIG 12 CO-OFFENSIVE PLAYER OF THE WEEK: Cameron Dickey, RB, Texas Tech,...With the most rushing yards in an FBS game this season with 263, Dickey produced a top-five game on the ground in Texas Tech history in his team's 25-point win over Kansas. His career night also included a pair of touchdowns as well as three catches for 16 yards. Dickey opened the game with a 71-yard touchdown run and housed a 55-yard scamper in the fourth quarter as well. His 263 rushing yards were the most by a Red Raider since Byron Hanspard set the school record with 287 yards against Baylor in 1996. - Big 12 Football

Cameron Dickey ran for 263 yards and two long touchdowns, Will Hammond scored twice after replacing injured quarterback Behren Morton and No. 9 Texas Tech beat Kansas 42-17 on Saturday night. Dickey sprinted 71 yards on the first offensive play for the Red Raiders and added a 55-yard TD run early in the fourth quarter. Texas Tech (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) had 372 yards rushing and recovered from a malaise after Morton's injury in the school's first game as an AP top 10 team since 2013. A 21-0 Texas Tech lead was down to four points at the break when the Jayhawks (4-3, 2-2) scored on three of their first four possessions after Morton appeared to injure his lower right leg on a sack in the second quarter. He didn't return.

Hammond threw an interception and the Red Raiders punted on his other three possessions before halftime. But the redshirt freshman ran 20 yards for a touchdown on the first drive of the second half. Dickey's second long TD put Texas Tech up 35-17, and Hammond's 10-yard run finished the scoring. Hammond had 61 yards rushing. It's the third time Hammond has come on with Morton not returning this season. Morton hyperextended his right knee in a 67-7 victory over Arkansas-Pine Bluff in the season opener and was sidelined in a 34-10 win over Utah after taking a hard hit to the head. Jalon Daniels threw for 228 yards and two touchdowns for Kansas, which dropped to 1-12 in Lubbock and has lost 24 of 26 meetings with the Red Raiders. - Texas Tech/AP College Football

10/11/25 - Behren Morton, rSr/2026, Texas Tech, 6-1, 206 (DS#14 QB) + More +

Texas Tech quarterback Behren Morton exited the No. 9 Red Raiders' game against Kansas after appearing to injure his lower right leg when he was sacked in the second quarter. Morton pounded the turf after getting his legs caught under Leroy Harris III on the sack. The injury to Morton came on third down, so the offense was coming off the field anyway. He appeared to argue with the medical staff before backup Will Hammond went out for Texas Tech's next series, which ended after three plays. Hammond threw an interception on of the next possession. It's the third time this season Morton has exited a game with an injury. He hyperextended his right knee in a 67-7 victory over Arkansas-Pine Bluff in the season opener and was sidelined in a 34-10 win over Utah after taking a hard hit to the head. It was the second significant injury of the first half for the Red Raiders, who led 21-7 late in the first half. - AP College Football

Cincinnati improved to 5-1 on Saturday with a 20-11 win over UCF. The Bearcats received the most votes of any unranked team last week, finishing 18 points shy of No. 25 Florida State. Another win paired with Florida State's loss could do the trick. - AP College Football

Brendan Sorsby passed for 191 yards and two touchdowns, both to receiver Jeff Caldwell, helping Cincinnati win its fifth straight game, 20-11 over UCF on Saturday. The Bearcats (5-1, 3-0 Big 12) won despite being outgained 413 to 306. Due to injuries to two other quarterbacks, Florida Atlantic transfer Cam Fancher made his second start of the season for UCF (3-3, 0-3) and passed for 222 yards while rushing for 108 yards and a touchdown.

The Knights held their first five opponents scoreless in the first quarter this season before Sorsby found Caldwell for a 40-yard touchdown pass to put Cincinnati ahead 7-0. Sorsby, the nation's highest-rated QB (91.1) through five games according to Pro Football Focus, connected with Caldwell again in the second quarter for a 9-yard TD to make the score 14-0. UCF's pass defense, which ranked 15th nationally with 150.8 yards allowed per game, limited Sorsby to 116 yards passing until tight end Joe Royer's 67-yard reception with 59 seconds left in the third quarter. Royer's big play set up Stephen Rusnak's second field goal, a 24-yarder to make the score 20-3 early in the fourth. - Cincinnati/AP College Football

His three field goals were from 23, 26 and 26 yards out while booting five kickoffs for touchbacks to limit the Cougars' return game.

Brendan Sorsby passed for 214 yards and two touchdowns, Evan Pryor ran for 111 yards and two TDs and Cincinnati used a 17-point first quarter to beat No. 14 Iowa State 38-30 on Saturday. The Bearcats (4-1, 2-0 Big 12) beat a ranked opponent at home for the first time since beating No. 16 Houston 35-20 on Dec. 4, 2021. The Cyclones (5-1, 2-1) trailed 31-7 with 1:08 left in the second quarter before rallying to get within eight with 1:56 left in the game. Cincinnati recovered an onside kick to end the threat. Rocco Becht passed for 314 yards and two touchdowns and ran another two in for the Cyclones.

Sorsby's 82-yard touchdown pass to Caleb Goodie in the fourth quarter was the Bearcats' longest pass play since 2015. Iowa State, one of the least penalized teams in the country, had five penalties for 35 yards in the first half. The Cyclones jumped offside on third down to extend the Bearcats' opening drive, which led to a 30-yard TD run from Pryor for the game's first score. The Cyclones went on to take a 17-0 lead at the end of the first quarter. Becht got the Cyclones on the board early in the second on a 14-yard run. Becht scored on a 4-yard run on the final play of the half and then threw an 11-yard TD pass to Brett Eskildsen on the opening drive in the third quarter. - Cincinnati/AP College Football

Tawee Walker scored on a 2-yard touchdown run with 29 seconds left to lift Cincinnati to a 37-34 victory over Kansas on Saturday. The Bearcats (3-1, 1-0 Big 12) drove 75 yards in 1:16 for the game-winning score. Jalon Daniels put Kansas (3-2, 1-1) ahead 34-30 with 1:45 left when he found Levi Wentz for a 6-yard touchdown. But there was too much time for Brendan Sorsby and the Bearcats. Sorsby was 29 of 43 for 388 yards and two touchdowns for Cincinnati. Daniels threw for four touchdowns and 445 yards. Kansas took the opening drive of the second half and marched 75 yards for the tying score. Daniels found Boden Groen on a 24-yard, wide-open touchdown pass. But Cincinnati answered with a 14-yard Sorsby to Cyrus Allen touchdown to retake the lead.

Daniels found Emmanuel Henderson for a 75-yard touchdown to tie the game at 27-all. Cincinnati had first-and-goal inside the 1-yard line but had to settle for a 24-yard Stephen Rusnak field goal. Kansas struck quickly on a 93-yard touchdown pass from Daniels to Henderson on the Jayhawks' first play from scrimmage. Cincinnati responded with a methodical 13-play, 75-yard drive, capped by a 2-yard touchdown run by Walker. The Bearcats attempted and succeeded on two fourth-down conversions on the drive. Cincinnati appeared to score on an 88-yard punt return just before halftime, but it was nullified by an illegal-block penalty. The Bearcats still drove from their own 6 to the Kansas 25, using a 43-yard field goal by Rusnak for a 20-13 halftime lead. - Cincinnati/AP College Football
