Follow live: No. 2 Buckeyes lead No. 3 Ducks at Autzen Stadium

It’ll be nearly impossible for Week 7 to match the chaos of Week 6, but the slate is loaded with exciting matchups.

One early surprise was No. 7 Alabama having to deal with another nail-biter at home against South Carolina. The Crimson Tide needed some late-game defensive heroics to survive against the Gamecocks in a 27-25 thriller. Later on, No. 4 Penn State needed a comeback of its own before eking out a 33-30 win in overtime at the Coliseum.

Meanwhile, the No. 1 team in the country left no question as to how its Red River Rivalry game with Oklahoma was going to go. The Longhorns allowed an early field goal before scoring 34 straight points in a rout at the Cotton Bowl.

Here are the matchups we’ll be keeping an eye on late Saturday. Follow all the action live below.

Time: 7:30 p.m. | TV: NBC | Line: Ohio State -3.5 | Total: 52.5

The marquee game of the weekend should be a doozy. Opposing defenses haven’t yet solved OSU’s two-headed rushing attack and a passing game that features all-world freshman Jeremiah Smith. If the game comes down to quarterback play, Oregon could have the edge. Will Howard has been solid for the Buckeyes, but Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel leads the country in completion percentage and has thrown for 1,449 yards.

Time: 7:30 p.m. | TV: ABC | Line: Ole Miss -3.5 | Total: 63.5

This game has all the makings of a shootout. The Rebels enter averaging 44 points per game while LSU is scoring over 35 per game. QB Jaxson Dart has thrown for 2,100 yards already and LSU’s Garrett Nussmeier has thrown for 1,652 yards and 15 TDs through five games. The Tigers were off in Week 6 while the Rebels bounced back from their first loss with a resounding win over South Carolina.

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

Kansas State is a good measuring stick for what appears to be an improved Buffaloes squad. The team has already matched its win total from 2023 and is just two victories away from bowl eligibility. The biggest test for Colorado will be up front on defense. Teams are averaging over 150 rushing yards a game against the Buffaloes and KSU RB DJ Giddens and QB Avery Johnson are each averaging 7.3 yards a carry.
