THE ROUNDUP (CFP TOP 25)

■ No. 6 Auburn 26, No. 1 Alabama 14

Jarrett Stidham passed for 237 yards and ran for a fourth-quarter TD as the Tigers (10-2, 7-1) beat the Tide for a berth in the Southeastern Conference title game. The Tigers mostly shut down the league’s top scoring offense for their second win in three weeks over the top team in the playoff rankings. They won the Western Division to earn a rematch with Georgia in the SEC Championship game Dec. 2. The Crimson Tide (11-1, 7-1) made a rare assortment of mistakes for a team that appeared headed toward a shot at a fourth consecutive SEC title and playoff berth.

Auburn’s Kerryon Johnson delivered a jump pass for a touchdown and ran 30 times for 104 yards before leaving in the fourth quarter with an injury.

■ No. 3 Clemson 34, No. 24 South Carolina 10

Kelly Bryant threw two TDs to Hunter Renfrow, and the Tigers (11-1) stayed on track for a third straight trip to the College Football Playoff with a road win over the Gamecocks (8-4). The Tigers won their fourth straight game in the Palmetto State’s most cared-about sporting event, tying their second-longest run of dominance in the series. The win was the 100th in Clemson coach Dabo Swinney’s career.

■ No. 4 Oklahoma 59, West Virginia 31

Baker Mayfield threw for 281 yards and three TDs after being punished for directing a lewd gesture toward the Kansas bench last week, and the Sooners (11-1, 8-1 Big 12) routed the Mountaineers (7-5, 5-4) to maintain momentum heading into the Big 12 Championship game.

Mayfield was stripped of his captaincy and starting job for the final home game as a Sooner. He received the loudest cheers when seniors were announced, then more loud cheers when he entered the game on Oklahoma’s second possession. Rodney Anderson ran for 118 yards and four TDs for the Sooners, who will play TCU for the Big 12 title next Saturday in Arlington, Texas. The Sooners gained 646 yards in their seventh straight win.

■ No. 5 Wisconsin 31, Minnesota 0

Alex Hornibrook threw three TD passes without an interception in Minneapolis as the Badgers easily remained unbeaten with their 14th straight victory over the Gophers (5-7, 2-7). Jonathan Taylor rushed for 149 yards on 20 carries, including a 53-yard scoring sprint on the first play of the fourth quarter that gave the Badgers (12-0, 9-0) their largest winning margin in a Big Ten game this year. The only other time Wisconsin completed the conference slate without a loss was in 1912, when there were only five contests on the schedule.

■ No. 7 Georgia 38, Georgia Tech 7

Sony Michel ran for 85 yards and a TD, Jake Fromm threw two TD passes and the Bulldogs won in Atlanta. The Bulldogs had 247 yards rushing. Michel, Nick Chubb and D’Andre Swift ran for TDs, and Fromm threw scoring passes of 21 yards to Javon Wims and 78 yards to Ahkil Crumpton.

Georgia (11-1) will play in the SEC Championship game this week against Auburn. Georgia Tech (5-6) was denied the win it needed to become bowl-eligible.

■ No. 21 Stanford 38, No. 8 Notre Dame 20

K.J. Costello threw two of his career-high four touchdown passes in the fourth quarter as the host Cardinal (9-3) rallied to beat the Irish (9-3). The night couldn’t have gone much better for the Cardinal, who got the help they needed when Washington beat Washington State in the Apple Cup to send Stanford to the Pac-12 title game against USC. Bryce Love ran for 125 yards, but Costello was the star of the offense for a change by throwing for 176 yards and delivering the four scores. Stanford has won seven of nine in the series, including the last five at home.

■ No. 9 Ohio State 31, Michigan 20

QB Dwayne Haskins replaced injured star J.T. Barrett in the third quarter as the Buckeyes (10-2, 8-1 Big Ten) won a sixth straight in the rivalry. They head to the conference championship game next to face Wisconsin with hopes of making the College Football Playoff. The Wolverines (8-4, 5-4) have lost 13 of 14 to Ohio State.

Mike Weber sealed the win with a 25-yard TD run with 1:44 left. Haskins, a redshirt freshman, was 6 of 7 for 94 yards and his 22-yard run set up J.K. Dobbins’ 1-yard TD that gave Ohio State a 21-20 lead late in the third quarter.

Barrett appeared to hurt his knee on a run in the third quarter and left the game. But Barrett later said he was injured before the game when someone on the sideline tried to squeeze by him, made contact with his leg while he was warming up, and aggravated a problem he’s been playing with.

■ No. 10 Penn State 66, Maryland 3

Trace McSorley threw two TD passes and ran for a score to help the Nittany Lions (10-2, 7-2 Big Ten) build a 31-0 halftime lead and crush the Terps (4-8, 2-7) for a third straight victory. McSorley left with 5:46 left in the third quarter, after Saquon Barkley made it 45-0 with two third-quarter touchdown runs.

■ No. 17 Washington 41, No. 13 Washington St. 14

Myles Gaskin ran for 192 yards and four touchdowns and the host Huskies (10-2, 8-2 Pac-12) ended Pac-12 North title hopes for the Cougars (9-3, 6-3).

■ No. 16 Michigan State 40, Rutgers 7

Brian Lewerke threw for a TD and ran for another, redshirt freshman Matt Coghlin kicked a career-best four field goals, and Gerald Holmes ran 2 yards for a TD as Michigan State (9-3, 7-2 Big Ten) limited the Scarlet Knights’ (4-8, 3-6) running game to a season-low 14 yards in Piscataway, N.J.

■ No. 18 LSU 45, Texas A&M 21

Danny Etling passed for 347 yards and three TDs, and the Tigers (9-3, 6-2 SEC) beat the Aggies (7-5, 4-4). Etling’s TDs went for 11 yards to Russell Gage, 10 yards to J.D. Moore and 6 yards to D.J. Chark as LSU won for the sixth time in seven games to finish with its best SEC record since 2012.

■ No. 19 Oklahoma State 58, Kansas 17

Mason Rudolph passed for 438 yards and two touchdowns and ran for two scores in his final home game to lead the Cowboys. James Washington, Dillon Stoner and Marcel Ateman each went over 100 yards receiving for Oklahoma State (9-3, 6-3 Big 12).

■ No. 20 Memphis 70, East Carolina 13

Riley Ferguson threw for three TDs, Darrell Henderson scored twice and rushed for 122 yards, and the Tigers (10-1, 7-1) dominated the Pirates (3-9, 2-6) in a tuneup for the American Athletic Conference title game. Patrick Taylor ran for 127 yards and scored twice for Memphis.

■ No. 22 Northwestern 42, Illinois 7

Justin Jackson ran for 144 yards and a TD in Champaign, Ill., as the Wildcats (9-3, 7-2 Big Ten) won their seventh straight, beating the Illini (2-10, 0-10). Jackson finished the regular season with 1,154 yards, one of two Big Ten players along with former Wisconsin star Ron Dayne to top 1,000 yards for four straight seasons.

■ Fresno State 28, No. 23 Boise State 17

Marcus McMaryion threw for 332 yards and two TDs as the West champion Bulldogs (9-3, 7-1) beat the Mountain champion Broncos (9-3, 7-1) in a preview of this Saturday’s Mountain West title game.
