Greene threw for a staggering 605 yards and 5 touchdowns, battling through adversity and two interceptions to post a 222.1 passer rating. WVU’s offense racked up 683 yards, showing explosiveness and resilience, especially during a 21-point fourth quarter surge to snatch the win.

UCF 55, TCU 52 (2OT)
If you love defense scoring points, this was your game. A total of six turnovers and four defensive touchdowns made this a wild Big 12 clash.

UCF's balanced rushing attack kept the offense afloat while their defense scored at crucial moments. The game turned on back-to-back defensive touchdowns by UCF late in the fourth quarter. In double overtime, Demari Henderson’s interception and Colton Boomer’s game-winning field goal sealed a thrilling UCF victory in Coach Carman’s emotional return.
Colorado 52, Baylor 38
The Buffaloes survived an early scare in Waco thanks to a massive second-half comeback.

Shedeur Sanders led with 361 passing yards and 2 touchdowns (plus 60 rushing yards), while Hood exploded for 176 total yards and 4 TDs.

A gritty Big 12 road win for Coach Prime and crew.
Kansas State 48, BYU 42
Talk about a collapse and a comeback. BYU sprinted to a 28-3 lead early, but Kansas State stormed back with 35 unanswered points in the second half. BYU's offense, led by Miles Davis (152 total yards and 2 TDs) and a defensive pick-six from Jakob Robinson, gave them a fighting chance late. However, Kansas State’s late field goal proved decisive. BYU drove into K-State territory in the final seconds, but a game-ending interception crushed their hopes. A painful but thrilling loss for the Cougars, and a resilient win for the Wildcats.
