College football games, scores, updates: Miami vs. Florida, Ohio State vs. Akron and more

It’s the Saturday of Labor Day weekend, which means the college football chaos is really starting to kick off.

Thursday saw 21 games, including Colorado’s win over perennial FCS powerhouse North Dakota State, and six games on Friday before a full schedule on Saturday.

No. 1 Georgia started off with an absolute show of force, beating No. 14 Clemson 34-3 in their season opener. Heisman favorite Carson Beck was on point the entire game, throwing for 278 yards and two touchdowns in the win.

The nightcap is a showdown between No. 7 Notre Dame and No. 20 Texas A&M.

(All tenses are Eastern.)

Time: 7:30 pm | TV: ABC | Line: Texas A&M -3 | Total: 46.5

Notre Dame doesn’t shy away from tough openers, and this one is no exception. Saturday night marks QB Riley Leonard’s first game in a Notre Dame uniform after transferring from Duke, but he’ll play behind a revamped offensive line that lost three starters from 2023. First-year Texas A&M coach Mike Elko brings a defense with plenty of new faces but still plenty of talent. And QB Connor Weigman returns as the Aggies’ starting quarterback with the goal of staying healthy all season.

    Cam Ward has a day in his Miami debut, this time hitting Jacolby George for a 23-yard touchdown — his third TD pass of the game.

  • Arch Manning throws first touchdown of his career

    The Longhorns beat Colorado State. You know what that means: Arch Manning time.

  • Meanwhile, Penn State is wrapping up operations in Morgantown.

  • Landing in Miami!

    Miami pounds the ball into the end zone for another touchdown, this time thanks to Mark Fletcher leaping over a group of bodies on the goal line.

    The Hurricanes were unstoppable on that drive, fueled by this catch/spin/run from Xavier Restrepo.

  • After halftime in the Swamp, Miami is back in the red zone after two big pass plays.

  • QB Quinn Ewers (3TDs, 248 yards) and No. 4 Texas are grinding it out against Colorado State as the 2nd half gets underway. Longhorns lead 31-0.

  • This touchdown catch by Jahmal Banks is a must-see.

    Nebraska defeated UTEP 30-7 at halftime.

  • Miami answers with a TD!

    Cam Ward to Xavier Restrepo for a 24-yard touchdown. Just like that, the Hurricanes are back up 14 points on the Gators at halftime.

  • Meanwhile, Dylan Raiola’s Nebraska debut has gotten off to an interesting start. The freshman has dropped a few dimes, including this absolute gem for Isaiah Nayor:

  • Now Penn State’s other star running back is in the game. Nick Singleton just blasted through the West Virginia defense for a 40-yard touchdown.

  • The Longhorns are getting used to Austin, and after a TD pass from Quinn Ewers, they now lead Colorado State 17-0.
