Baylor tramples W. Virginia

WACO, Texas (AP) – Corey Coleman had three more touchdown catches and No. 2-ranked Baylor ran its FBS-best home winning streak to 19 games with a 62-38 win over West Virginia Saturday.

Coleman matched and then broke the single-season school record for TD catches, his nation-leading 16 coming halfway through the regular season for the Bears (6-0, 3-0 Big 12).

Coleman finished with 10 catches for 199 yards

NO. 10 ALABAMA, 41, NO. 9 TEXAS A&M 23

COLLEGE STATION, Texas (AP) – Derrick Henry ran for a career-high 236 yards and two scores and Alabama added a school-record three touchdowns on interception returns.

Alabama (6-1, 3-1 Southeastern Conference) built a 28-6 lead in the second quarter on Henry’s 55- and 6-yard touchdown runs, Minkah Fitzpatrick’s 33-yard interception return and Eddie Jackson’s 93-yard interception return.

NO. 11 FLORIDA ST. 41,

LOUISVILLE 21

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) – Everett Golson threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns and Florida State rallied in the second half to beat Louisville.

It is the eighth 300-yard game of Golson’s career and his second since transferring from Notre Dame this year. A 70-yard touchdown pass to Kermit Whitfield, who had nine receptions for 172 yards, gave the Seminoles a 20-14 lead with 8:05 remaining.

MEMPHIS 37,

NO. 13 MISSISSIPPI 24

MEMPHIS, Tenn. (AP) – Paxton Lynch threw for 384 yards and three touchdowns and Memphis stunned Mississippi.

Lynch was superb, completing 39 of 53 passes.

NO. 17 IOWA 40,

NO. 20 N’WESTERN 10

EVANSTON, Ill. (AP) – Reserve running back Akrum Wadley ran for 204 yards and tied Iowa’s school record with four rushing touchdowns.

Northwestern (5-2, 1-2) lost for the second straight week after five consecutive victories.

NO. 19 OKLAHOMA 55, KANSAS STATE 0

MANHATTAN, Kan. (AP) – Baker Mayfield threw five touchdown passes and Oklahoma bounced back from its upset loss to Texas to beat Kansas State, the first time the Wildcats have been shut out since 1996.

Kansas State had delivered serious scares to Top 25 opponents the previous two weeks, but the Wildcats (3-3, 0-3 Big 12) were helpless against the Sooners (5-1, 2-1). Oklahoma set the tone early, taking only 1:04 to score on its opening drive on a 22-yard pass from Mayfield to Sterling Shepard.

NO. 22 TOLEDO 63, EASTERN MICHIGAN 20

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) – Phillip Ely threw for 327 yards and four touchdowns to help Toledo improve to 6-0 for the first time since 1997.

The Rockets (6-0, 2-0 Mid-American Conference) led 28-6 at halftime, and then Ely really warmed up.

He threw touchdown passes on Toledo’s first two possessions of the second half, connecting with Corey Jones for a 55-yard score and then with Cody Thompson on an 88-yarder four minutes later.

The touchdown to Thompson was the fourth-longest completion in school history, and it wasn’t the only record book-worthy play of the game against Eastern Michigan (1-6, 0-3).

Toledo sophomore Terry Swanson busted loose for a 90-yard run – also the fourth-longest in school history – late in the second quarter that set up Kareem Hunt’s 4-yard touchdown run on the next play.
