Tide record now belongs to Tagovailoa

Tua Tagovailoa threw four TDs and Alabama’s offense kept rolling in the Tide’s first game at No. 1 this season with a 47-28 victory over No. 24 Texas A&M.

Tagovailoa threw his first interception of the season but became Alabama’s career passing touchdowns leader with his first of the game, breaking a tie with A.J. McCarron. The junior now has 81 for his career and leads the nation with 27 on the season.

“You just revert back to your training. I have experience playing at a place like Tennessee, then going to LSU, Ole Miss. Everyone wants to beat Alabama,” Tagovailoa said. “We’re not done yet, as a team we have to continue to grow.”

Alabama (6-0, 3-0 Southeastern Conference) trailed briefly in its first game this season against a ranked opponent when the Aggies scored a touchdown on their first possession.

Tagovailoa then engineered four consecutive scoring drives, including three touchdown passes all on third down, and the Tide were on cruise control against the best pass defense they had faced so far this season.

Jaylen Waddle scored Alabama’s first touchdown on a 31-yard catch-and-run when he shook four defenders, and he also had four punt returns for 128 yards.

Clemson rolls: After escaping with a one-point win over North Carolina on Oct. 5, No. 2 Clemson left no doubt against Florida State.

Trevor Lawrence threw three TD passes, two to Justyn Ross, and the Tigers won their 21st straight game by pounding the Seminoles 45-14.

Lawrence completed 17 of 25 passes for 170 yards, including 10- and 8-yard TD throws to Ross. Lawrence also ran for a touchdown.

Clemson started 6-0 for the fifth straight year and beat the Seminoles (3-3, 2-2) for the fifth straight time.

Another shutout for Wisconsin: Jonathan Taylor rushed for two TDs and Wisconsin’s defense posted its fourth shutout of the season as the eighthranked Badgers cruised to a 38-0 win over Michigan State.

The Spartans’ defense held Taylor to 80 yards on 26 carries, marking the first time this season the Heisman Trophy hopeful was held under 100. But Michigan State was held to 149 yards, including 30 rushing.

Jack Coan completed his first seven passes for Wisconsin (6-0, 3-0 Big Ten) and finished 18 of 21 for 180 yards and a touchdown to win his eighth straight start since last season.

Arizona State rallies late: Jayden Daniels scored on a 17-yard scramble with 34 seconds left and threw three TD passes to ailing Brandon Aiyuk, leading No. 18 Arizona State to a 38-34 comeback victory over Washington State.

Arizona State (5-1, 2-1 Pac-12) trailed by three after Blake Mazza made a 31-yard field goal with 21⁄2 minutes left. Taking over at their own 25-yard line, the Sun Devils moved quickly down the field behind Daniels’ passing. The freshman capped the drive with his scramble.

Daniels threw for 363 yards on 26-of-36 passing. Aiyuk had seven catches for 196 yards despite an illness that kept him out for portions of the game.

Michigan survives: Hassan Haskins ran for 125 yards and a touchdown, Zach Charbonnet added 116 yards rushing, and No. 16 Michigan needed a late surge to hold off Illinois 42-25.

The Wolverines (5-1, 3-1 Big Ten) built a 28-0 lead by halftime, but turnovers and ineffective offense helped the Illini (2-4, 0-3) cut the lead to 28-25 with 12:50 left in the fourth quarter when Dre Brown ran in from a yard out and then converted a 2-point conversion.

Michigan responded with a long drive capped by Shea Patterson’s 5-yard touchdown pass to Donovan Peoples-Jones. Patterson ran for a score after Michigan forced a turnover at the Illini 1 to seal it.

Baylor prevails in OT: JaMycal Hasty scored on a 5-yard scoring run in the second overtime and No. 22 Baylor topped Texas Tech 33-30 in the Bears’ first game as a ranked team under coach Matt Rhule.

Baylor (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) went the length of the field at the end of regulation to get to overtime and won on Hasty’s run after Trey Wolff’s 35-yard field goal for Texas Tech opened the second extra period.

Charlie Brewer was 24-of-37 passing for 352 yards, but threw his first three interceptions of the season for Baylor. He ran for three scores, including a 1-yarder in the first overtime.

Cincy holds off Cougars: Desmond Ridder passed for 263 yards and three TDs as No. 25 Cincinnati held off Houston’s late surge to beat the Cougars 38-23.

The Bearcats (5-1, 2-0 American Athletic Conference) used a 21-point first half to pull away early. Perry Young’s late 2-yard INT return for a touchdown sealed their fourth straight win.

Ridder also had 11 carries for 50 yards and a score.
