TCU 33 ,No.9 Texas 31

-

Darwin Barlow ran 9 yards to pick up a big first down for the Horned Frogs. Duggan then took a deep snap all the way to the back of the end zone to run out the final 6 seconds.

TCU (1-1, 1-1 Big 12) is 7-2 against Texas since joining the Big 12 in 2012. The Texas loss delivers another blow to the Big 12’s College Football Playoff hopes. The Longhorns (2-1, 1-1) and Oklahoma, who were the league’s highest ranked teams, have dropped early home games to unranked opponents.

Duggan made his first start of the season after missing much of training camp while treating a previously undiagnose­d heart condition. He passed for 231 yards and ran for 79 more and scored twice. His late 26-yard TD run caught the Texas defense by surprise.

Ehlinger threw four touchdown passes on an otherwise difficult day for him. He was just 17 of 36 for 236 yards.

No. 1 Clemson 41, Virginia 23: Trevor Lawrence was 25 of 38 for for 329 yards and three touchdowns as Clemson (3-0, 2-0 ACC) beat visiting Virginia (1-1, 1-1).

No. 2 Alabama 52, No. 13 Texas A&M 24: Mac Jones passed for a career-high 435 yards and four touchdowns, including a pair of deep throws to John Metchie III and an even longer one to Jaylen Waddle, and host Alabama (2-0) romped past Texas A&M (1-1).

No. 6 Georgia 27, No. 7 Auburn 6: Stetson Bennett threw for 240 yards and a touchdown in his first college start, Zamir White ran for a pair of scores and host Georgia romped past Auburn in the first Top 10 matchup of the season.

The Bulldogs (2-0) buried Auburn (1-1) with a 24-0 blitz
