College football live scores, updates: Houston at BYU

How did we get to the final week of the regular season already?

Rivalry week delivered a few surprises and all kinds of drama and hurt feelings.

No. 3 Texas clinched a spot in the SEC title game with a 17-7 win over No. 20 Texas A&M.

The early portion of the day already delivered some big surprises, with Michigan shocking No. 2 Ohio State 13-10 to end OSU’s Big Ten title hopes. And then, No. 6 Miami saw its ACC title hopes slip away with a 42-38 loss to unranked Syracuse. Might that cost Miami a shot at the playoff as well?

One team that won’t need to worry about its playoff status is No. 5 Notre Dame, which secured its spot in the field with a 49-35 win over USC. And amid all the chaos, could No. 13 Alabama perhaps sneak into the playoff after a 28-14 win over Auburn in the Iron Bowl?

Follow all the action late Saturday night below.

Live145 updates

  • Breaking down the conference title matchups, playoff field

  • Halftime: BYU 21, Houston 10

    Iowa State and Colorado are watching this game very closely.

    Cyclones are in the Big 12 title game with a BYU win.

    Buffaloes are in the Big 12 title game with a Houston win.

  • BYU adds to the lead with a TD!

    BYU goes 80 yards in under a minute to score right before halftime. Jake Retzlaff’s 13-yard TD run finishes it off, and the Cougars from Provo suddenly lead 21-10.

  • Touchdown BYU!

    Sione Moa scores on a 6-yard run, and BYU takes the lead.

  • Final: Texas 17, Texas A&M 7

    Longhorns clinch a spot in next week’s SEC title game, where it will face Georgia. The Aggies’ playoff hopes are dashed.

  • Final: Iowa State 29, Kansas State 21

    The Cyclones are in the Big 12 title game with a BYU win over Houston. If the Cougars lose, Colorado will play Arizona State instead.

  • Texas recovers fumble!

    The Longhorns jar the ball loose from A&M QB Marcel Reed, and that will do it here in College Station.

  • ISU stuffs KSU on fourth down!

    That’s the ballgame folks. The Wildcats were unable to move the ball on their final possession and the Cyclones are going to win this one.

  • Houston leads BYU with FG

    Houston retakes the lead with a short field goal.

    Houston 10, BYU 7

  • Iowa State misses FG

    ISU’s Kyle Konrardy misses a 37-yard field goal that would’ve put Farmageddon on ice and the Wildcats are still alive!

    There’s just over a minute left in the game. ISU is still up 29-21.

  • Texas 2 minutes from victory

    The Longhorns are facing 4th down at the 2-minute timeout and will likely punt.

    Texas A&M has no timeouts and trails by 10. Last gasp here.

  • Surprise onside backfires on Houston

    After Houston took the early lead with a TD, it tries an onside kick, but BYU scoops it and returns it all the way for a game-tying score. BYU can earn a spot in the Big 12 title game with a win.

    BYU 7, Houston 7 | End of 1st quarter

  • Texas A&M turned away at the goal line!

    The Aggies can’t take advantage of the blocked punt as a 4th-and-goal run from the 1 by Amari Daniels is completely stonewalled. Texas ball with 4:34 to play.

  • K-State stuffed on 4th down!

    The Cyclones come up with a huge fourth-down stop and they’ll get the ball back in Wildcat territory with just under 5 minutes left in the game.

  • Iowa State adds FG

    The Wildcats make ANOTHER goal line stand and the Cyclones are forced to settle for a short field goal to extend their lead to 8 points.

    There’s just over 6 minutes left in the game.

    ISU 29, KSU 21

  • Texas A&M blocks a punt!

    This time it’s special teams that comes up with a big play, with Jahdae Walker blocking a punt and giving A&M the ball at the Texas 19.

    Neither team has done anything on offense in the 2nd half, but A&M making things happen on defense/special teams.

  • ISU safety!

    The Wildcats started the play at the 19-yard line and Avery Johnson somehow wound up in his own end zone and committed an intentional grounding penalty.

    What a huge mistake by Johnson.

    ISU 26, KSU 21

  • Indiana piling on late

    The Hoosiers didn’t need another touchdown, but they got one anyways.

  • Texas A&M recovers fumble!

    Texas turns it over for the second straight drive inside the A&M 10, this time via a Quinn Ewers fumble on a scramble. Big plays on defense are keeping the Aggies alive in this one.

    End of 3rd quarter.

  • Iowa State turnover on downs!

    The Cyclones were facing a fourth-and-2 at the 6-yard line and Rocco Becht’s pass fell incomplete. It’ll be K-State ball as the third quarter comes to a close.
