College football week 2 results: Oregon beats Boise State with last-second field goal

The first top 10 duel of the season ended with a clear win, but on Saturday we experienced our first big surprise of the season.

No. 5 Notre Dame suffered a surprise 16-14 loss at home to Northern Illinois. The Huskies scored a 35-yard field goal by Kanon Woodill with 30 seconds left and then blocked the Irish's own attempt to win the game as time expired.

In Saturday's top matchup, Texas (number 3) left no doubt as to which team would face Michigan (number 10) and swept the Wolverines off the court in the Big House with a score of 31:12.

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

In the evening window, Colorado was steamrolled by Nebraska in the first half before settling for a 28-10 loss, No. 4 Alabama struggled through three quarters before turning it around late against USF, and No. 14 Tennessee annihilated No. 24 NC State in a blowout. Then Oregon narrowly snatched the win in the night game with a last-second field goal.
