Frogs DE Fields listed as a starter vs SE La

TCU sophomore DE Devonte Fields is listed in the starting lineup on the updated depth chart for Saturday's game against SE Louisiana.

Field was initially suspended for the first two games of the season after violating team policy during the offseason, and even with this alteration head coach Gary Patterson said there is no change in Fields' status. Patterson made Fields suit up for last weekend's game against LSU but did not play the stud sophomore. The Horned Frogs face Texas Tech after SE Louisiana, and Fields could really make an impact against Kliff Kingsbury's offense.

LSU drops axe on Les Miles after 2-2 start

LSU fired HC Les Miles.

Miles managed to survive rampant unemployment rumors last November, but he couldn't avoid the boot this time around. The Tigers have been almost completely listless on offense this season, having surpassed 25 points scored in just one of four games. "Decisions like this are never easy ones to make. Coach Miles has done a tremendous job here and he’s been a great ambassador for our University," said AD Joe Avella in a statement, "which makes this even more difficult." In addition to Miles' termination, OC Cam Cameron has also been shown the door. DL coach Ed Orgeron will take over as interim head coach moving forward, while TE coach Steve Ensminger is expected to step in for Cameron.

Notre Dame fires DC Brian VanGorder

Notre Dame fired DC Brian VanGorder.

After last weekend's loss to Michigan State, HC Brian Kelly said that the notion of firing VanGorder was "not even part of the conversation." How things change in the course of seven days. Duke defeated Notre Dame 38-35 on Saturday, winning as a three-touchdown underdog. That was the final straw. Through four games with VanGorder vaguely guiding the ship, Notre Dame had surrendered 134 points. "I have the utmost respect for Brian as both a person and football coach," said Kelly, "but our defense simply isn't where it should be and I believe this change is necessary for the best interest of our program and our student-athletes." Defensive analyst Greg Hudson will take over as defensive coordinator moving forward.

Scout: Like Kuechly, ILB Foster will go early

An NFC scout believes Alabama senior ILB Reuben Foster will get drafted earlier than expected.

"I think Reuben Foster is going to get drafted way earlier than people expect," the scout said. "(Luke) Kuechly got drafted early and I think Foster has the same (expletive) to him." Kuechly, the best middle linebacker in the NFL, was drafted ninth overall in the 2012 draft. "What this scout means is that Foster plays with the same nastiness as Kuechly, which is a high compliment to pay the Alabama linebacker," Lance Zierlein wrote. "Foster is known as an angry hitter with bad intentions. What doesn't get enough attention is his speed to go sideline to sideline in order to chase down plays." The analyst believes Foster's game fits any scheme.

Cannon suffers groin injury in win over OSU

Baylor junior WR K.D. Cannon exited Saturday's victory over Oklahoma State in the third quarter with a groin injury.

Per Baylor coach Jim Grobe, Cannon suffered the injury in practice during the week and then aggravated it against the Cowboys. He was in street clothes and seen limping at the end of the game. We'll update you on his status when more is known.

Zamora registers 8-175-2 receiving line in W

Baylor sophomore WR Ishmael Zamora caught eight passes for 175 yards and two touchdowns in Saturday's 35-24 win over Oklahoma State.

Zamora missed the first three games of the season while serving out a suspension. You wouldn't know it from watching Saturday's game. The 6-foot-4, 220-pounder caught both of his touchdowns in the second quarter, finishing out the game with a stellar 21.8 yards per reception. Playing in a fantasy-friendly offensive system, Zamora is a prime waiver-wire option.

Bears roar into Big 12 play behind Russell

Baylor redshirt senior QB Seth Russell completed 18-of-28 passes for 387 yards, four touchdowns and an interception in Saturday's 35-24 win over Oklahoma State.

Baylor has played a typically cushy early schedule, but things will start ramping up for the Bears now that they have hit conference play. As has been the case several times this season, their offense was sluggish early. The game was knotted at 7-all after one quarter, at which point, Russell and friends started to do their thing. He threw a pair of touchdown passes to Ishmael Zamora in the second quarter and hit Chris Platt for a pair after the halftime break. Through four games, Russell has racked up 1,148 passing yards with a 13/4 TD/INT ratio. He should be able to shred Iowa State next weekend.

Lamar Jackson accounts for seven touchdowns

Louisville sophomore QB Lamar Jackson completed 22-of-44 passes for 417 yards, five touchdowns and an interception while rushing for two additional scores in Saturday's 59-28 win over Marshall.

The song remains the same. Jackson has been the best offensive player in college football this season, bar none. The 6-foot-3, 205-pounder has accounted for at least five touchdowns between passing and rushing in all four of Louisville's games to date. Overall, Jackson has thrown 13 touchdowns and danced in for an additional 12. Next Saturday's showdown with Clemson will be must-see television.

Higgins throws for 504 yards, three scores

Louisiana Tech redshirt senior QB Ryan Higgins completed 36-of-59 passes for 504 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday's 38-34 loss to Middle Tennessee.

Higgins and the Bulldogs held a 27-17 lead after three quarters, but Middle Tennessee put on a 21-7 offensive blitz through to the end of the game to secure the victory. The 6-foot-1, 196-pound Higgins has thrown for at least 300 yards in each of his three games played. He has also tossed at least three touchdown passes in each of those games.

Nick Wilson (leg) won't play against Huskies

Arizona junior RB Nick Wilson (leg) is being held out of Saturday's game against Washington.

Wilson suffered a left leg injury of some variety in last weekend's win over Hawaii. With the 5-foot-10, 195-pound junior now ruled out against Washington, freshman back J.J. Taylor figures to see the bulk of carries when the game kicks off.

Montez shines in upset win over Oregon

Colorado freshman QB Steven Montez was a magician in Saturday's 41-38 win over Oregon, completing 23-of-32 passes for 333 yards, three touchdowns and two interceptions while rushing for 135 yards and a touchdown on 21 carries.

Montez was pushed into action due to Sefo Liufau being held out with an ankle injury. Despite a few expected freshman mistakes, the 6-foot-5, 225-pounder performed admirably in downing the Ducks. The Buffs trailed 38-33 entering the fourth quarter, but Montez would connect with Bryce Bobo from 31 yards out midway through the final quarter to boost Colorado to the lead and eventual win. Depending on Liufau's health over the coming week, Montez could see another start against Oregon State next Saturday.

Lock fires off second five-touchdown game

Missouri sophomore QB Drew Lock completed 26-of-36 passes for 402 yards and five touchdowns in Saturday's 79-0 win over Delaware State.

While Lock and friends were playing the cupcakiest of cupcakes, the quintet of touchdowns will count on Lock's statistical record nonetheless. Through four games, the 6-foot-4, 205-pound sophomore has thrown for 1,508 yards with a 14/3 TD/INT ratio. He has thrown at least three touchdown passes in each of his last three games, with five-touchdown performances in two out of his last three. We should have a better idea of what kind of season Lock might be gearing toward once he hits SEC play proper. The early results, at least, have been spectacular. Those playing quarterback roulette in fantasy would do well to consider Lock as a waiver-wire pickup.
