College football Week 2 scores, games: Boise State vs. Oregon


The first top-10 matchup of the season was a lopsided blowout, but we got our first major upset of the season Saturday.

No. 5 Notre Dame was stunned at home by Northern Illinois, 16-14. The Huskies drove down for a 35-yard field goal by Kanon Woodill with just over 30 seconds left in the game and then blocked the Irish’s own attempt to win it as time expired.

In the marquee showdown Saturday, No. 3 Texas left no doubt as to which team is the contender against No. 10 Michigan, blowing out the Wolverines 31-12 at the Big House.

Elsewhere, No. 17 Kansas State survived against Tulane after a controversial finish and No. 16 Oklahoma State rallied back to beat Arkansas in double overtime.

In the evening window, Colorado was blitzed by Nebraska in the first half before settling for a 28-10 loss, No. 4 Alabama struggled through three quarters before turning on the jets late against USF and No. 14 Tennessee hammered No. 24 NC State in a blowout.

Follow the rest of the evening’s action below.

Live135 updates

  • Texas Tech trickery!

    Red Raiders reach into the bag for their first TD of the game.

  • USC adds to the lead

    Quinten Joyner’s TD run gives USC a 10-0 lead over Utah State.

  • Boise State tacks on a FG

    Broncos add a chip-shot field goal right before halftime to extend the lead to 20-14

  • Wazzu is dominating Texas Tech early, and it’s doing it with the run game (no, really).

    Cougars lead 21-3 midway thru the 2nd quarter.

  • Boise State back in front!

    It’s a shootout early in Eugene. Broncos have the lead and they’re already moving the ball again.

  • Oregon retakes the lead

    Oregon QB Dillon Gabriel is 6 for 6 with 115 yards and a TD passing + a rushing TD so far.

  • Final: Nebraska 28, Colorado 10

    Nebraska didn’t score in the 2nd half, but it didn’t matter. Huskers ride a dominant first half to a lopsided victory.

  • Final: Oklahoma 16, Houston 12

    The Sooners struggled throughout in this one. To be fair, both teams did offensively. The Cougars outgained the Sooners 319-249 in total yards.

  • Shedeur Sanders heads to locker room

    The Colorado QB was seen leaving the field near the end of the game. No word on his status.

  • Final: Alabama 42, South Florida 16

    The Crimson Tide were threatened into the second half before blitzing the Bulls for 28 fourth-quarter points.

  • Colorado has waved the white flag. Shedeur Sanders’ night is done as backup Ryan Staub steps in at QB for the final minutes of this one.

    Sanders took a lot of punishment, including 5 sacks

  • Touchdown Boise State!

    The biggest game of the late night window is well underway in Eugene.

    Boise State has grabbed an early 10-7 lead after Ashton Jeanty’s TD run.

  • Oklahoma adds 2 with a safety!

    Houston got the ball at its own 5 but was immediately tackled for a big loss in its own end zone. Safety for OU, and it’s a 16-12 lead and Sooners ball with 1:42 to play.

  • Touchdown Alabama

    Jam Miller just sprinted through the USF defense for a 56-yard touchdown. It’s over.

  • USF turns it over on downs

    That’ll all but end things in Tuscaloosa with 3:20 left.

  • Touchdown Colorado

    The Buffaloes finally find the end zone as Shedeur Sanders tosses to LaJohntay Wester for a 5-yard score.

    Nebraska’s lead is cut to 28-10 with 8:45 to play.

  • Alabama touchdown

    That’ll probably do it for South Florida. The Crimson Tide have found their rhythm and up their lead to 12 points after a 43-yard pass from Jalen Milroe to Ryan Williams.

  • Meanwhile, Illinois picked up a big 23-17 win over No. 19 Kansas. Party time in Champaign.

  • Touchdown Bama

    The Tide got the ball right back and drove in for a quick score, capped off by a 16-yard pass from Jalen Milroe to Kobe Prentice.

  • The action has slowed considerably in Nebraska-Colorado. Only 3 total points scored in the 3rd quarter.

    The Buffs have a huge uphill battle, trailing by 25 in the 4th.

    And they were just stuffed in 4th and 1.

Suddenly hazy skies in Denver prompt some residents concerned about wildfire smoke to call 911

Suddenly hazy skies in Denver prompt some residents concerned about wildfire smoke to call 911



Some people who live in the Denver metro area on Thursday afternoon were making calls to 911 after skies became noticeably hazy and winds kicked up. It was due to smoke from wildfires in Nebraska moving into Colorado. A cold front also was moving through the Front Range, and there is dust in the air.

The poor air conditions led to reduced visibility downtown after 3 p.m. Several of CBS Colorado’s City Cams showed dust or smoke in the air.

Temperatures were expected to drop by as much as 20 to 30 degrees with the cold front.  

The suddenly dusty skies prompted at least one fire agency to put out a plea to residents to please only call 911 “if you see flames.” That warning was put out by South Metro Fire Rescue, which shared a photo on X of an office building with haze visible outside.

South Metro Fire


South Metro Fire Rescue said in their post that the smoke is from Colorado’s neighbor to the east. They called it a “significant haze” in the air.

Earlier this month, the Morrill Fire and the Cottonwood Fire burned a significant amount of Nebraska grassland and ranchland. They have mostly been contained by firefighters. Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen said those two fires combined with several others have burned approximately 800,000 acres of land. On Thursday, Pillen announced that he is signing several executive actions intended to ease the burden caused by the fires.  

There were no wildfires burning in the Denver metro area on Thursday afternoon.

Colorado homicide suspect wanted in fentanyl-related death arrested in Colombia


ARAPAHOE COUNTY, Colo. (KKTV) – A homicide suspect based out of Colorado, wanted in a fentanyl-related death, is back in the state after being captured in Colombia.

The Arapahoe County Sheriff’s Office (ACSO) said 33-year-old Max Arsenault had been on the run since January 17.

Deputies said this stemmed from an incident in May 2023, where deputies responded to a call for a man named Nicholas Dorotik, who was found unresponsive.

ACSO said the cause of death was a mixed drug overdose involving meth and fentanyl, having about three times the lethal amount of fentanyl in his system.

One year later, Arsenault was arrested. He was scheduled for trial in January 2026 when deputies said he fled the country while on bond three days before the trial was set to start.

He was caught in Medellin, Colombia, on March 4, following a two-month international investigation. He has since been extradited back to Denver, where he is facing charges and awaiting trial.
