SATURDAY’s TOP 25 COLLEGE FOOTBALL GAMES

No. 11 Tennessee 43, No. 25 Georgia 31

ATHENS, GA.

Jauan Jennings hauled in a 43-yard Hail Mary from Joshua Dobbs on the final play, giving No. 11 Tennessee a stunning victory over No. 25 Georgia after the Bulldogs appeared to win it on a long TD pass of their own with 10 seconds remaining.The Vols (5-0, 2-0 Southeastern Conference) rallied from a double-digit deficit for the fourth time in five games, but this was their most improbable comeback yet. The SEC East rivals packed a whole game’s worth of action into the closing minutes as Tennessee went ahead for the first time all afternoon by recovering a fumble by Georgia (3-2, 1-2) in the end zone with 2:56 to go. Then, after the Bulldogs threw an interception but got the ball back one more time, Jacob Eason tossed a 47-yard touchdown pass to fellow freshman Riley Ridley. With the Sanford Stadium crowd in a frenzy, Tennessee took the kickoff into position to take one shot at the end zone. Dobbs hurled a towering pass that the 6-foot-3 Jennings didn’t really have that much trouble bringing down. He leaped above the scrum to make the catch, and then landed on his back for the score that sent the Tennessee bench charging on the field to celebrate.

No. 4 Michigan 14, No. 8 Wisconsin 7

ANN ARBOR, MICH.

Wilton Speight threw a tiebreaking, 46-yard touchdown pass to Amara Darboh midway through the fourth quarter, Jourdan Lewis had a spectacular, one-handed interception for Michigan.

Wisconsin (4-1, 1-1) had the ball at its 8 with 2:59 and no timeouts left with a chance to beat a third team ranked in the top 10. The Badgers went for it on fourth-and-10 from its 8, with no timeouts left, and Alex Hornibrook’s deep pass was picked off by Lewis. Lewis leaped to snatch the ball out of the air with his right hand and pinned it against his hip for an interception near midfield with 2:15 left to play.

No. 9 Texas A&M 24, South Carolina 13

COLUMBIA, S.C.

Trevor Knight threw for 206 yards and ran for 84 more for Texas A&M.

Turner’s 75-yard touchdown run on South Carolina’s first play from scrimmage.

AMES, IOWA

No. 15 Nebraska 31, Illinois 16

LINCOLN, NEB.

Terrell Newby ran for 113 of his 140 yards and scored two touchdowns in the fourth quarter, and No. 15 Nebraska got a scare from Illinois. Newby touched the ball on 18 of Nebraska’s last 21 plays from scrimmage and the Cornhuskers (5-0, 2-0 Big Ten) won going away after being down 16-10.

Indiana 24, No. 17 Michigan State 21, OT

BLOOMINGTON, IND.

Indiana quarterback Richard Lagow caught a touchdown pass, threw for two more and took advantage of a second chance in overtime to set up Griffin Oakes for a 20-yard field goal and an improbable 24-21 victory. The Hoosiers (3-1, 1-0 Big Ten) trailed 14-0 late in the third quarter before Lagow’s 5-yard TD catch on third-and-goal finally helped the Hoosiers turn the corner. Indiana ended a seven-game losing streak in the series, reclaimed the Old Brass Spittoon for the first time since 2006, beat a ranked team at home for the first time in a decade and earned their first overtime win since 2010.

California 28, No. 18 Utah 23
