College Football Week 1: Live CFB Updates, Highlights, Recap and Reaction for Sept 5

Eric Winters denies Baylor the chance to win to close out a 17-16 victory for the Tigers in Alex Golesh's debut.

It wasn't pretty, but 1-0 seems beautiful for Auburn right now.

Oregon super sophomore Dakorien Moore catches this pass, stops on a dime to make two defenders miss and sprints 62 yards for the go-ahead score.

Bear suit? When you get a turnover?

Yes, a bear suit.

We've seen it all.

It's not a surprise that Tennessee is clubbing Furman and freshman Faizon Brandon is watching the last quarter and a half from the sideline.

But what he did while he was on the field wasn't just great; it was historic.

What a Game 1 for the rookie.

We've got a classic on our hands shaping up in Eugene.

After Oregon took its first lead, Boise State comes back with a gutsy play. Maddux Madsen drilled a beautiful 7-yard touchdown pass to tight end Matt Wagner on 4th-and-3 to tie the game at 24-all.

There's still 1:20 left in the third.

What. A. Game.

The Ducks have turned it around.

After a slow start, Oregon finally took its first lead with 5:36 left in the third quarter after an 87-yard, six-play drive.

Jeremiah McClellan was initially ruled short of the goal line, but that was overturned, and the Ducks have pushed the petal down. Can they finish?

All the Iowa State transfers are getting in on the action for Penn State.

After Rocco Becht hit Ben Brahmer for a score, it's now Zay Robinson's turn as he streaks wide open for a touchdown.

The Nittany Lions are mauling Marshall in a 31-0 game. It's a fun debut for the Matt Campbell era.

Matt Campbell pretty much fits Penn State's philosophy to perfection.

The team, it seems, always has an elite tight end. And even though Campbell is making his debut in Happy Valley after coming from Iowa State, he's got a great one in Ben Brahmer who followed him from Ames.

Brahmer is on the board with his first score of the year, and PSU is up 31-0.

It's tantalizing throws like this one to Cam Coleman that shows us glimpses of just how brilliant Arch Manning's talent is.

He can make all the throws, and this one is elite. He's got a terrific playmaker in Coleman at his disposal, too.

This is a natty contender if they keep making plays like this.

How do you get more wide open than this?

Tennessee has been extremely vanilla against FCS foe Furman so far today, but you've got to be impressed with true freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon.

Still, when you've got receivers running THIS open, it's hard not to pitch-and-catch. How do you go this uncovered? Mike Matthews says, "Thanks for the gift."

But this one was a beauty on the next possession. 42-0 Vols.

Alex Golesh certainly doesn't have a cakewalk as he starts his Auburn career hosting Baylor. But as much as Bears QB DJ Lagway is struggling, Tigers signal-caller Byrum Brown has been just as shaky.

He was a star at South Florida, but with competition kicked up a notch, he's having a rough day. Though he's completed 15-of-21 passes for 145 yards and a pair of picks. He's also run 12 times for just four yards and been stacked four times.

Auburn clings to a 10-7 halftime lead at home.

Hey, we can't all be perfect.

Arch Manning had a great half in a 28-7 start to the Texas State game, throwing for 203 yards and a pair of scores. But he did throw an interception to end the half.

Hey, we magnify everything with Ohio State on deck.

The Oregon Ducks REALLY missed former offensive coordinator Will Stein in a disjointed first half against Boise.

He's now the head coach in his home state of Kentucky, and his debut with the Wildcats was a success in a 49-13 win over Youngstown State. Notre Dame transfer quarterback Kenny Minchey was strong.

But things get much harder next week against an Alabama team that cruised vs. East Carolina.

Last year, the Oregon Ducks had a megastar tight end in Kenyon Sadiq, but Jamari Johnson was a mass-producer when he got on the field, too.

This year, it's his tight end room, and the big man is off to a huge start when the Ducks need it most.

After some time-management issues deep in their territory caused Boise State to have to punt without the Ducks using their timeouts, Oregon capitalized on great field position and cashed in a TD in 44 seconds to pull within three at the break, 17-14.

The Pitt Panthers had no problems with the Miami (Ohio) RedHawks today, and Pat Narduzzi may just have one of the most underrated gunslingers in the nation on his hands.

After an impressive freshman season, Mason Heintschel is off to a roaring start in his second season.

Everything was clicking in a 59-14 win.

Everybody is getting in on the action for the Texas Longhorns in what is turning into a rout against Texas State.

The offense hasn't had any issues, and now DB Graceson Littleton is the beneficiary of a scoop-and-score as new coordinator Will Muschamp's defense is bringing the BOOM! in Austin.

It's 28-0 Horns.

Jordon Davison got Oregon on the board to tie the game at 7-all, but the Boise State Broncos didn't take long to answer.

The moment is not too big for coach Spencer Danielson's boys in Eugene.

Sire Gaines shrugs off arm tackles and takes a screen pass to the house.

Baylor is trailing Auburn 3-0 in the first half but has moved the ball. Unfortunately for the Bears, new quarterback DJ Lagway is still having issues hanging onto the ball.

Last year at Florida, the former star prospect struggled mightily in a forgettable season that saw Billy Napier fired.

Closer to home with fresh surroundings, Lagway has thrown an interception and fumbled so far on the Plains against Auburn.

A lot of folks have the Oregon Ducks penciled in as the national champions, but they're down early against Boise.

Maddox Madsen hit Cam Bates, and Dan Lanning's crew is looking at a home deficit in Eugene. It's just late first quarter, though.

With Malachi Toney going off and Jeremiah Smith getting his, too, new Texas Longhorn Cam Coleman is like, "don't forget about me."

The former Auburn Tiger is a going to be a problem with Arch Manning throwing to him in Austin.

Texas is up early on Texas State.

You've got to be kidding me in Ames. Iowa State cornerback Ben Ngoyi looks like a pro in this ridiculous pick against Southeast Missouri State.

First, rookie Legend Bey gets in the end zone. Now, it's 5-star top-tier receiver Chris Henry.

Everybody is getting in on the action for the Buckeyes, and that includes a special freshman class. Ohio State rolled in the opener, 56-3.

The true freshman signal-caller is off to the races for the Tennessee Vols as his career begins.

The former 5-star quarterback beat George MacIntyre for the job in the preseason, and he has the Vols on the board early.

The future is BRIGHT for the Buckeyes' freshman.

Oklahoma State and Tulsa had better hydrate today.

Whew

The national champions Indiana Hoosiers are getting more than they expected from North Texas in the season opener. New quarterback Josh Hoover is battling through.

Rich Rodriguez want so run, run and run some more. He's got his offensive roster set with Michael Hawkins Jr. at quarterback. Oh, and Cam Cook -- who transferred from Jacksonville State -- is a DUDE.

Mountaineers rolled at home early, but it's tightened up.

Several of us hadn't even had lunch yet when college football's best player – Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith – and new Indiana pass-catcher Nick Marsh gave us a couple of "No-he-didn't" moments to open scoring in their games.

Marsh's one-handed grab will be on Week 1 highlight reels all weekend.
