College football scores, games, updates: USC at Michigan, Utah at Oklahoma State and more

Neither the Wolverines nor the Trojans can get much going on their first possessions of the game. The Trojans closed as 4.5-point favorites and the over/under on the game was 44.

The Buckeyes' rushing attack was unstoppable in this one. Quinshon Judkins led the way with 173 rushing yards and 2 touchdowns on 14 carries.

We are underway in the Big House! Michigan will have the ball first with new starter Alex Orji under center.

The Wolfpack put some makeup on it with a couple late touchdowns, but the Tigers left no question as to whether they're ACC contenders this season.

The Gators may have saved Billy Napier's job (for at least another week) with a road win at Mississippi State.

The Wolfpack haven't thrown in the towel, but they're just too far behind at this point. It's now 59-28 after a Demarcus Jones touchdown run.

It's another rushing touchdown for the Buckeyes, this time by Quinshon Judkins.

Judkins and TreVeyon Henderson now have 249 yards on 20 carries with 4 TDs.

The Buckeyes are comfortably in charge at the Horseshoe and freshman phenom Jeremiah Smith has found the end zone for his fourth TD of the season — this one a 53-yard catch-and-run.

The Tigers add a defensive touchdown as Ashton Hampton steps in front of an underthrown ball by NC State's CJ Bailey and returns it 53 yards to the house.

Two injury updates for the upcoming Michigan-USC and Utah-Oklahoma State games:

• Michigan TE Colston Loveland has been ruled out

• Utah QB Cameron Rising is questionable, with Pete Thamel reporting there's an 'expectation' that Rising will try to play.

The Dukes are not taking their foot off the gas in their upset bid against North Carolina. They just scored another touchdown to take a 36-point lead.

In a more competitive game, Kansas just took the lead at West Virginia on an 11-yard run by Daniel Hishaw Jr.

The same goes for the Buckeyes as TreVeyon Henderson breaks off a 40-yard TD run. Ohio State's star tandem of Henderson and Quinshon Judkins has 202 yards and 3 TDs on just 12 carries so far.

We are back for the second half of these games and the Tigers are in the end zone yet again — this time on a TD pass from Cade Klubnik to Adam Randall. Clemson is now over the 50-point mark.

Here's where things stand as the first wave of games hits halftime:

After a long review just before halftime, this catch by Marshall's Elijah Metcalf was ruled a touchdown. The Thundering Herd are down 14 at the break.

The Tigers tack on a field goal just before the break to make it 45-7. What an impressive showing by Dabo Swinney's group. Clemson has now outscored its opponents 111-27 in its last six quarters of play.

Clemson took its time on that drive before scoring on a 19-yard run by Jay Haynes. We're nearing halftime in Death Valley and Dave Doeren's Wolfpack can't get into the locker room soon enough.

Perhaps the most surprising and exciting game in this early window is James Madison-North Carolina. The Dukes just took advantage of a second fumble by UNC to run up its lead to 46-21 with almost half the second quarter still to play.

The Buckeyes add to their lead as TreVeyon Henderson breaks a couple tackles and takes it in for a 14-yard touchdown.

The Tigers respond in kind to bump their lead back up to 28 points. This time it's Cole Turner taking a reverse 18 yards around the end for a score. Dabo Swinney has to be happy with the offensive explosion by his team early in this game.

Quinshon Judkins rips off a monster run to extend the Buckeyes' lead, sprinting 86 yards for a touchdown.

Meanwhile, with all the heat surrounding Billy Napier at Florida, the Gators look functional early against Mississippi State. Embattled QB Graham Mertz is 15-for-16 with 147 passing yards and 3 TDs.

The Wolfpack are finally on the board after that miserable first quarter. They cobbled together a respectable 9-play, 71-yard drive capped off by a 5-yard TD pass from CJ Bailey to Jordan Waters.

Six plays later, the Buckeyes are in the end zone on a goal line plunge by Will Howard. It's Ohio State's first lead of the game.

Marshall just went for it on fourth-and-1 at its own 45-yard line and did not get it. It was a bold, early call that could end up biting the Thundering Herd.

The Thundering Herd aren't backing down early in this one. Marshall's Josh Moten picks off OSU's Will Howard with a nice play on a deep ball.

The Tigers forced another fumble and recovered it. One play later, they're on the board again — this time it's a 38-yard TD run by Phil Mafah, who is back in the game after the injury scare and appears to be doing just fine. This one is getting out of hand and it's still only the first quarter.

While the Thundering Herd took 13 plays to score, the Buckeyes' response was much more efficient. It took them two plays, and Emeka Egbuka did most of the work with a 68-yard TD reception.

What a disastrous start for the Wolfpack. NC State QB CJ Bailey took a helmet to the back and fumbled the ball, which was recovered by the Tigers deep in Wolfpack territory. Then Clemson added onto its lead with another TD pass from Cade Klubnik to Antonio Williams.

On the second possession of the game for the Tigers, Cade Klubnik finds Antonio Williams for a 31-yard touchdown. It's not all good news though, as RB Phil Mafah went down with an apparent shoulder injury on the drive.

The Thundering Herd are on the board first in Columbus. Ethan Payne caps off a 13-play, 75-yard drive to start the game with a TD plunge. Marshall up 7-0 on Ohio State.

The Wolfpack made it past midfield before being forced to punt. So the Tigers will have it back deep in their own territory.

And just like that ... Clemson QB Cade Klubnik sprints right through the Wolfpack defense 55 yards for a touchdown. What a start for the Tigers!
