Live college football scores, updates: Kansas State at Colorado and more

We knew Week 7 would have a hard time matching the drama of Week 6, but it was almost as intense.

In the day's main event, No. 3 Oregon defeated No. 2 Ohio State 32-31 in a back-and-forth heavyweight contest in Eugene. The Big Ten showdown was the first top-three matchup of the season and featured numerous lead changes and a dramatic finish at every turn.

And in perhaps the most exciting game on Saturday, No. 13 LSU came back to beat No. 9 Mississippi with a TD throw from Garrett Nussmeier in overtime. It was a crucial result in a crowded SEC title race as we reach the halfway point of this year's college football season.

Earlier in the day, No. 7 Alabama was dealing with another rock-solid game at home against South Carolina. The Crimson Tide needed some late-game defensive heroics to hold off the Gamecocks for a 27-25 win. Later, No. 4 Penn State needed a comeback of its own before pulling out a 33-30 win in overtime at the Coliseum.

Meanwhile, the No. 1 team in the country left no doubt about how the Red River Rivalry game against Oklahoma would turn out. The Longhorns allowed an early field goal before scoring 34 straight points in a loss in the Cotton Bowl.

We'll see this late Saturday evening.

Time: 10:15 p.m. | TV: ESPN | Line: Kansas State -4 | Overall: 56.5

Kansas State is a good benchmark for the Buffaloes' seemingly improved roster. The team has already matched its 2023 win total and is just two wins away from bowl eligibility. The biggest test for Colorado will be their defense up front. Against the Buffaloes, teams average over 150 rushing yards per game and KSU RB DJ Giddens and QB Avery Johnson each average 7.3 yards per carry.

    The Buffaloes answered with the score they needed when Shedeur Sanders threw a fastball to Will Sheppard in the back of the end zone.

    Kansas State's lead narrowed to one point.

    Double good news for the Wildcats, who led Colorado by two TDs in the 3rd quarter.

  • Injuries are piling up at K-State-Colorado

    Now Kansas State QB Avery Johnson has left the game with an injury.

    He completed a deep pass and went down without being hit. He was seen heading back to the locker room.

    Backup Ta'Quan Roberson is in the game.

  • Ashton Jeanty does his thing

    Speaking of Heisman candidates, Boise State RB Ashton Jeanty is already on the road against Hawaii.

    He's already passed for over 100 yards, including that 54-yard TD run.

  • Travis Hunter leaves injured

    Evolving situation in Boulder. Colorado star and Heisman hopeful WR/DB Travis Hunter went to the locker room late in the first half with a shoulder injury. At halftime, Colorado trails Kansas State 14-7.

  • TOUCHDOWN LSU!!!

    Garrett Nussmeier catches Kyren Lacy on LSU's first possession of overtime for a 25-yard score and IT'S OVER, folks!

    What a win for LSU!

  • Ole Miss saved with a 57-yard FG on its first OT possession

    The Rebels moved their possession back to the 40-yard line, but kicker Caden Davis gave them a huge save with a 57-yard FG to take the lead in overtime.

    Now it's LSU's turn.

  • Ole Miss gets the ball first in overtime and immediately goes back with a holding penalty and an incompletion. The rebels are outraged.

  • LSU-Ole Miss went to OT

    The Rebels had a chance to get the ball into field goal range with seconds left in regulation time, but LSU's defense stays strong and we head into overtime.

  • Kansas State touchdown!

    Wildcats take the lead on Dylan Edwards' 1-yard TD run.

    It's a 14-7 K-State lead over Colorado with less than 2 minutes left in the first half.

  • TOUCHDOWN LSU!

    Garrett Nussmeier hits Aaron Anderson up the middle with a perfect throw in the fourth and fifth and the extra point is good to bring the score to 23!

    What a game in Death Valley!

  • Colorado's Travis Hunter goes to the locker room

  • LSU on the move

    The Tigers are down by 7 with less than 2 minutes to play, but they are now ahead and above midfield.

    This could be a crucial outcome in the SEC and CFP picture, and it will come down to the final drive here.

  • Ole Miss adds FG

    With just over three minutes to play, the Rebels score a field goal to make it a seven-point game.

  • Colorado and K-State were tied in the first half

    Meanwhile, in Boulder, the Buffs and Wildcats traded points early with about 10 minutes remaining in the first half.

    Shedeur Sanders opened the scoring with a 25-yard touchdown pass to Wester, and then the Wildcats responded with an 11-play, 75-yard drive capped by an 8-yard touchdown run by Avery Johnson.

  • LSU and Ole Miss trade INTs

    Things have gotten a little sloppy in Death Valley. One play after Ole Miss QB Jaxson Dart intercepted LSU's Zy Alexander in the end zone, LSU QB Garrett Nussmeier returned the favor by throwing a pick of his own on an ill-advised deep throw into double coverage.

  • Fans storm the field in Eugene

  • The last piece

    The Ohio State QB simply ran out of time. Amid the chaos, he couldn't slide down fast enough.

    What a finish.

  • Oregon wins!

    Will Howard runs away but can't make it in time! The clock runs out and the Ducks win 32-31!

  • Now there's a huge penalty against Oregon! Illegal substitution. 5 meters.

    Ohio State still needs to get closer.
