College football live scores, games, updates: Michigan at Ohio State, South Carolina at Clemson and more

On By Littum

How did we make it to the last week of the base game already?

The stakes are high for the College Football Playoff and in the Big 12. Rivalry week only features two matchups between ranked teams, but don’t let that fool you into thinking it won’t be an entertaining weekend of football. Just look at what happened in Week 13, when three SEC teams in the hunt for the playoffs all lost to unranked opponents on the road.

Here’s what we see in week 14. (Scroll down for live updates.)

Time: Noon | TV: Fox | Line: Ohio State -21 | Total: 43.5

There is no better opportunity than now for Ryan Day to finally get a win over Michigan. The Wolverines have won three straight games after Ohio State took down the Wolverines eight straight times from 2012 to 2019. We can imagine Michigan’s defense making it difficult for Ohio State’s offense to move the ball, but it’s hard to see how Michigan’s attacks do a lot of things. against Ohio State.

Time: Noon | TV: ESPN | Line: Clemson -2.5 | Total: 49.5

The Gamecocks have been terrific in the second half of the season, but their 27-3 loss to Ole Miss will probably end up being a playoff dealbreaker. Clemson is still alive for the ACC title, but the Tigers need help and this rivalry game has no effect on that. Clemson is only in the ACC title game against SMU if Miami loses at Syracuse.

Time: 15:30 | TV: CBS | Line: Notre Dame -7.5 | Total: 51.5

The Trojans can help salvage a frustrating season and potentially derail Notre Dame’s playoff hopes with an upset. The Irish are a very bad matchup for a USC defense that allows over five yards a carry. Notre Dame’s running game is one of the best in the country as Jeremiah Love has turned into a home run hitter. Love has 121 carries for 850 yards and 14 TDs.

Time: 19:30 | TV: ABC | Line: Texas -5.5 | Total: 48.5

It’s great that these two longtime rivals are finally playing each other again. And it gets even better with the effort. The winner will play Georgia for the SEC title on Dec. 7. The Longhorns and Aggies haven’t played since 2011, when Texas needed a late field goal in College Station to win 27-25. It was A&M’s last game in the Big 12 before moving to the SEC.

Time: 19:30 | TV: Fox | Line: Iowa State -3 | Total: 51.5

Farmageddon has serious Big 12 title implications. Both teams are alive for the conference title, though Kansas State will know at kickoff if it still has a chance. If tied at 7-2, Iowa State is in the Big 12 title game against Arizona State. If the Cyclones lose, they are out of the title race.

Live24 updates

  • OSU misses FG

    The Buckeyes had worked their way down to the red zone, but their drive fell apart there and Jayden Fielding missed a 38-yard field goal attempt.

    The good news for OSU is that Will Howard is back in the game after a brief injury scare.

  • Back-to-Back Elections in Tennessee!

    We have dueling taps in Nashville. One play after Diego Pavia threw a wild interception in the end zone, UT’s Nico Iamaleava threw one of his own on a deep pass.

  • Touchdown South Carolina!

    The Gamecocks responded as LaNorris Sellers capped a 6-play, 75-yard drive with a 25-yard touchdown scramble.

    Play on in Death Valley!

  • Touchdown Michigan!

    Well, Michigan got its touchdown after all. The Wolverines take advantage of the short field after the turnover as Kalel Mullings rushes into the end zone for a TD.

    Michigan 7, Ohio State 3

  • Wiretapping Michigan!

    What a big mistake by Will Howard! The Ohio State QB clearly didn’t see Michigan’s Aamir Hall when the DB jumped the route and took the pass near the OSU goal line.

  • Touchdown Clemson!

    The Tigers are on the board first in Death Valley after this scramble by Cade Klubnik.

  • Michigan loaded on the goal line!

    The Wolverines had worked their way down to the 3-yard line, but couldn’t get a first down or touchdown on fourth-and-short. They will hand it over to the Buckeyes.

  • End of Q1: Clemson 0, South Carolina 0

    We are still scoreless in Death Valley. The Gamecocks have the ball deep in their own territory, and neither team has moved much offensively.

  • Meanwhile, Michigan is now in the red zone after a huge play by quarterback Alex Orji.

  • Touchdown Tennessee!

    The Vols are finally on the board after Vandy’s hot start. Nico Iamaleava finds Dont’e Thornton on a crossing route for a 28-yard touchdown.

    Vanderbilt 14, Tennessee 7

  • Pick 6 of Northwestern!

    It’s not the most important game of Week 14, but it’s a highlight!

  • Ohio State starts with a field goal

    The Buckeyes are on the board first after their drive fizzles out in the red zone.

    OSU 3, Michigan 0

  • Things have been going very well for Vanderbilt so far. The Commodores returned the opening kickoff for a TD and then made it a 14-0 lead with a TD after recovering a Tennessee fumble.

    No. 8 The Vols are likely in the College Football Playoff with one win.

  • We’re rolling out our first wave of games!

    We will mostly follow Ohio State vs. Michigan and South Carolina vs. Clemson in the early window, but we’ll also see highlights from around the country.
