Stunning final play gives Central Michigan win over Okla

The Chippewas will take their 2-0 record into a home tilt with UNLV next week, while the Cowboys will try to pick up the pieces in their final nonconference game with Pittsburgh.

Rules state that the game can not end on an accepted live-ball penalty, official Tim O'Dey of the Mid-American Conference, CMU's league, said.

It was a mistake by the officials, as another rule states that if enforcement of the foul involves a loss of down, and the clock has expired, then the game should end.

He said after conferring with national rules editor Rogers Redding, officials determined the "extension should not have happened".

Oklahoma State's football team had apparently beaten Central Michigan 27-24, but a penalty on what appeared to be the final play gave the Chippewas a final chance, and Central Michigan scored on a miraculous hail mary play with a lateral on an untimed down. As he fell to the turf nine yards from the end zone, Kroll flipped a lateral to Corey Willis, who darted to his left past the Cowboy defense for the final yards and the winning score.

Arizona 31, Grambling St. 21 - At Tucson, Ariz., Brandon Dawkins, starting in place of injured Anu Solomon, ran for two touchdowns and threw for another, all in the second half, and Arizona rallied from an 18-point deficit and escaped with a victory over Grambling State.

"We were told the result is final and there is nothing we can do about it", Holder said in a statement.

Wide receiver Jazz Peavy caught two touchdown passes and running back Corey Clement rushed for two scores to lead Wisconsin at Camp Randall Stadium.

MI senior tight end Jake Butt and senior wideout Amara Darboh each caught two touchdown passes to help MI improve to 2-0. Rebels have two straight wins against the Crimson Tide. Running through Penn State was impressive.

Howard didn't let a rib injury sustained last week to hold him back.

(23) Baylor 40, SMU 13: In Waco, Texas, Seth Russell threw for 261 yards and two touchdowns and ran for another score as Baylor recovered from a slow start.

The Wolverines (2-0) have won their first two games by a combined total of 97 points.

After their drive bogged down, the Cowboys used redshirt freshman kicker Matt Ammendola, who kicked a 53-yard field goal to extend the Cowboys' lead to 17-7 with 9:25 to play in the first half. Then Bears safety Orion Stewart returned an interception 33 yards to put Baylor ahead 26-6 and effectively squash SMU's hope for an upset.

Rush finished 30-of-42 passing for 361 yards and four touchdowns.

Central Michigan fans might have been having flashbacks to the Bahamas Bowl from two seasons ago, when the Chips covered nearly the length of the field on a long pass and lateral play to make it a one-point game with no time left against Western Kentucky. He also connected with Dorian Leonard for a 46-yard score in the third quarter that made it 34-7. Chris Warren III, normally the Longhorns' co-featured back with D'Onta Foreman, ran for 95 yards and a touchdown on 20 carries. The game should have ended after the intentional grounding, with an Oklahoma State win.

Rudolph completed 27 of 44 passes for 286 yards and two touchdowns. The Sooners (1-1) outgained the Warhawks (1-1) 640 yards to 350. The fifth-year senior completed 19 of 28 passes for 235 yards and tossed three touchdown passes to three different receivers, all during the first half.

OXFORD, Miss. - Chad Kelly threw for 219 yards and three touchdowns to lead Mississippi.

ARKANSAS 41, NO. 15 TCU 38, 2OT - At Fort Worth, Texas, Austin Allen ran 5 yards for the winning score in the second overtime, and Arkansas pulled out a wild victory over TCU.

Observations, thoughts and takeaways from the second weekend of the college football season, which lacked big games, but still provided some drama and controversy.
