OU runs wild over Texas in Red River rout

Damien Williams broke off a 95-yard touchdown run for the longest rush in Red River Rivalry history, Blake Bell powered his way in for four TDs and No. 13 Oklahoma beat No. 15 Texas 63-21 yesterday in Dallas for its second straight blowout in the series.

Landry Jones threw for 321 yards and two touchdowns, and fullback Trey Millard had a career-best 119 yards receiving as the Sooners (4-1, 2-1 Big 12) added another rout to Bob Stoops’ rivalry resume.

Stoops is now 9-5 against Mack Brown and responsible for three of Oklahoma’s five most lopsided wins over Texas — and that doesn’t include last year’s 55-17 clobbering.

The Longhorns (3-2, 1-2) couldn’t get a stop and never got their offense going, then lost quarterback David Ash to an apparent left wrist injury in the fourth quarter. Ash grasped at his left hand after getting hit by Oklahoma’s Chuka Ndulue.

LSU 23, South Carolina 21

In Baton Rouge, La., freshman Jeremy Hill finished with 124 yards and two touchdowns, including a 50-yarder with 5:03 remaining, and the ninth-ranked Tigers (6-1, 2-1 SEC) edged No. 3 South Carolina (6-1, 4-1).

The Tigers outgained the Gamecocks 406 yards to 211, but struggled to find the end zone.

Texas Tech 49, West Virginia 14

In Lubbock, Texas, Seth Doege passed for six touchdowns and a season-high 499 yards and Texas Tech’s defense shut down Geno Smith (275 yards, but no TDs) and No. 5 West Virginia as the Red Raiders (5-1, 2-1 Big 12) upset the Mountaineers (5-1, 2-1).

Alabama 42, Missouri 10

In St. Louis, Eddie Lacy and T.J. Yeldon gave top-ranked Alabama (6-0, 3-0 SEC) a pair of 100-yard rushers in the same game for the first time this season and the duo combined for five scores in a soggy victory over Missouri (3-4, 0-4).

Florida 31, Vanderbilt 17

In Nashville, Tenn., Jeff Driskel ran for 177 yards and three touchdowns, and No. 4 Florida (6-0, 5-0 SEC) beat Vanderbilt (2-4, 1-3).

Kansas St. 27, Iowa St. 21

In Ames, Iowa, quarterback Collin Klein ran for 105 yards and three TDs and No. 6 Kansas State (6-0, 3-0 Big 12) beat Iowa State (4-2, 1-2) for the fifth straight time.

Ohio St. 52, Indiana 49

In Bloomington, Ind., Braxton Miller scored on a 67-yard touchdown run, threw TD passes of 60 and 46 yards and produced his third straight 100-yard rushing game, helping No. 8 Ohio State (7-0, 3-0 Big Ten) avoid the upset by Indiana (2-4, 0-3), which scored 35 second-half points.

USC 24, Washington 14

In Seattle, Anthony Brown blocked a punt and returned it 21 yards for a touchdown in the first half, Jawanza Starling forced and recovered Keith Price’s fumble inside the USC 5-yard line in the fourth quarter, and the No. 11 Trojans (5-1, 3-1 Pac-12) overcame offensive inconsistency to beat Washington (3-3, 1-2).

Florida St. 51, Boston College 7

In Tallahassee, Fla., EJ Manuel threw for a career-high 439 yards and four touchdowns and kicker Dustin Hopkins became the ACCs career scoring leader as No. 12 Florida State (6-1, 3-1) rebounded from its first loss of the season by routing Boston College (1-5, 0-3).

Cincinnati 49, Fordham 17

In Cincinnati, Deven Drane scooted 76 yards for a touchdown after picking up a fumble and Munchie Legaux threw two TD passes including a 78-yarder to Travis Kelce to lead the No. 21 Bearcats (5-0) past Fordham (4-3).

The Rams, who trailed just 14-6 at halftime, got 262 passing yards and a touchdown from quarterback Ryan Higgins.

In other games, No. 10 Oregon State opened 5-0 for the first time since 1939 with a 42-24 win over BYU; No. 18 Louisville held off Pittsburgh, 45-35; No. 22 Boise State beat Fresno State 20-10; and No. 25 Michigan, behind Denard Robinson, who shook off an injury that made him miss one-plus possessions, shut out Illinois, 45-0.
