Craziest plays of the day

  •  Utah State's lone touchdown was an acrobatic one, you're going to want to see this red zone play
  • Duke's Andrel Anthony was the wide receiver who made the touchdown catch with eight seconds left before halftime, and it took some finesse.

Performance of note: 

  • SMU quarterback Kevin Jennings has been perfect so far....literally. The junior is 10/10 with 236 yards and two touchdowns at the half against Baylor. The Mustangs lead 24-21.

If you missed ESPN’s College Gameday in Norman, Okla., take a look at the best moments and signs of the day.

Gameday highlighted his story and how he created the Light Beneath the Well foundation to provide clean water access to areas in need, specifically his old town in Uganda.

🍿 Get ready for Week 2

Week 2 is here! 

After a stacked Week 1 slate, college football only has one ranked vs. ranked game this weekend. But there are still plenty of intriguing matchups to watch out for before No. 15 Michigan at No. 18 Oklahoma tonight. 

No. 11 Illinois gets its first real test on the road at Duke to kick off the day alongside an always entertaining in-state rivalry between No. 16 Iowa State and Iowa. 

We get our first taste of SEC play in the afternoon window as No. 20 Ole Miss goes on the road to Kentucky before No. 13 Florida takes on a hot South Florida team an hour later. 

The blue-blood matchup between the Wolverines and Sooners will be the clear game to watch in the night window, but don't overlook No. 12 Arizona State at Mississippi State for the Sun Devils' first road test.  

Here are some of the top games to watch today:

Names to watch

  • How will Arch Manning bounce back after an underwhelming Week 1 performance? The Longhorns take on San Jose State, so it should be a get-right matchup for Manning to prepare for SEC play. 
  • Can Michigan's Bryce Underwood handle the early-season road game in Norman? The highest-ranked offensive recruit in Michigan football history has been thrown right into the action against an experienced Sooner defense. It will be interesting to see how the true freshman handles the environment. 
  • First road tests for two veteran quarterbacks. ASU's Sam Leavitt and Illinois' Luke Altmyer both go on the road against solid squads in Mississippi State and Duke, respectively. This will be a good benchmark to see if these proven gunslingers can take care of business away from home.
