Saturday NCAA Football Recap: Upsets for Top 10 Schools and Throughout Texas

Rough game day in Texas. Take a look back at the biggest upsets of the day:

Arizona State 13, Washington 7

The Sun Devils dominated the field with impenetrable defense. Missed field goals and a slow-moving offense kept the Huskies shut out until well into the fourth quarter.

LSU 27, Auburn 23

Strong second half defense and special teams plays made the way for LSU to iron out a major victory over Auburn in Saturday’s nail-biter game. Tough break for the Auburn Tigers who were off to a decent start early on.

TCU 26, Kansas State 6

The Horned Frogs were unstoppable in their win over Kansas State. Despite a 3-hour weather delay in Kansas, TCU pulled ahead early in the game, ending the first quarter with a 10-0 lead. The Wildcats got on the board with two field goals in the first and second quarters but still proved no match for the Horned Frogs.

Texas A&M 19, Florida 17

Daniel LaCamera kicked four field goals as the Aggies picked up a tough win on the road against Florida.

Oklahoma 29, Texas 24

The Sooners kept their playoff dreams alive after a narrow victory over Texas in the Red River Showdown.

West Virginia 46, Texas Tech 35

Quarterback Will Grier led his teammates to a show-stopping finish against the Red Raiders. Scoring four touchdowns in the second half, the Mountaineers earned their first victory over an AP Top 25 team in 10 tries since 2014.

Oklahoma State 59, Baylor 16

Oklahoma State took advantage of Baylor’s precipitous fall from last year in a display of pure offensive dominance. OSU Quarterback Mason Rudolph led his team to a school-record 747 yards in this spectacular win over Baylor.

Tulsa 45, Houston 17

Houston left stunned after a brutal defeat against Tulsa. Tough loss for the Cougars who held on until being shutout in the third quarter.

Did the Astros make the right decision with Cam Smith? Composite Getty Image.

In this episode, we break down the decision to bring rookie Cam Smith up to the Houston Astros big league roster — just 96 plate appearances into his major league journey.

Was it the right call, or a move made out of desperation due to the early-season outfield situation? We dive into the context of the Kyle Tucker trade, the uncertainty surrounding the outfield to start the year, and whether Cam Smith was truly ready — or if the Astros may have rushed a top prospect before he was fully developed.
