South Carolina forces punt
Facing a fourth-and-21 with just over 5 minutes left in the game, Texas A&M has to punt it back to South Carolina.
Touchdown Louisville!
That’s ballgame, folks! Isaac Brown just ripped right through the Clemson defense for a quick-hitting 45-yard touchdown run and that’ll all but do it for this one.
Louisville 33, Clemson 14

After curiously going for an extra point instead of a two-point conversion, Clemson kicks an onside kick and Louisville recovers it. So the Tigers still trail by 12 with under 6 minutes left in the game.
Touchdown Kentucky!
Just when you thought Tennessee was about to put this one away, UK comes right back with a TD drive led by new QB Gavin Wimsatt. Drive was capped by Ja’Mori Maclin’s incredible one-handed 32-yard catch in the end zone. It’s a 3-point game in Knoxville after UK converts on the 2-point try.

There’s under 14 minutes left in this one.
Tennessee INT leads to TD!
Nico Iamaleava’s 6-yard touchdown pass to Miles Kitselman pays off a huge interception by UT’s Will Brooks on a pass by Kentucky QB Brock Vandagriff. Brooks returned it all the way to the UK 10-yard line to set up the score.
Tennessee 21, Kentucky 10, late 3rd
Here’s the INT:
Clemson FG blocked!
The Tigers’ day goes from bad to worse as a short field goal attempt is blocked.
It’s Louisville ball and that could be the death knell for Clemson with just over 12 minutes left in the fourth quarter.

Tennessee misses another FG
Max Gilbert is not having a good day. He just missed his 3rd field goal attempt of the game, this one from 34 yards. Vols are really struggling to score in the red zone today.
