College Football Scores, Results: No. 10 Texas A&M falls to South Carolina, No. 11 Clemson falls to Louisville

Week 10 didn't look like a busy schedule on paper, but the surprises were lurking all along.

No. 10 Texas A&M was throttled by a 44-20 loss to unranked South Carolina, throwing the top of the SEC standings into chaos.

And the two teams ranked No. 11 in the AP poll both lost on Saturday, with No. 11 Clemson falling 33-21 to Louisville and No. 11 Iowa State at home against Texas suffered an impressive 23:22 defeat at Tech.

Iowa State was one of three previously undefeated teams to lose on the day, along with Penn State and Pitt.

In the main game of the day, No. 4 Ohio State held strong with a decisive four-down stand at the goal line to hold off No. 3 Penn State. It's a huge win for the Buckeyes and another loss in a big game for James Franklin and the Nittany Lions.

No. 18 Pitt was completely outclassed in a 48-25 loss to No. 20 SMU, which improves to 5-0 in ACC play.

Elsewhere, Houston defeated No. 17 Kansas State to further break through the Big 12 rankings.

In SEC action, Jaxson Dart and Jordan Watkins put on a show in No. 19 Ole Miss' blowout win over Arkansas, setting all sorts of records in the process. Diego Pavia once again proved to be Hugh Freeze's foil and led Vanderbilt ahead of Auburn, something he hadn't accomplished since 1955. And No. 2 Georgia held off a troublesome Florida team and escaped with a win.

This is how it went on Saturday:

  • Final: SMU 48, Pitt 25

    SMU throttles previously undefeated Pitt in impressive fashion. The Mustangs are 8-1 and 5-0 in ACC play and are tied with first-place Miami atop the conference.

  • Final: Tennessee 28, Kentucky 18

    It was shaky at times as the Vols trailed at halftime. But UT gets the win it needs to improve to 7-1 and 4-1 in SEC play.

  • Final: Louisville 33, Clemson 21

    The Tigers suffer another big loss – this time in a key ACC matchup against Louisville.

  • Final: South Carolina 44, Texas A&M 20

    The Gamecocks won that road game, scoring 24 straight points after being tied with the Aggies at halftime.

  • South Carolina touchdown

    The Gamecocks throw in another touchdown for good measure, another one from Rocket Sanders.

    It's over in Colombia.

    South Carolina 44, Texas A&M 20

  • TD Tennessee

    Dylan Sampson pushes the pile into the end zone for a 6-yard touchdown run.

    And UT's lead is back to 10 with 4:55 minutes left in the game.

    Tennessee 28, Kentucky 18

    The score also helped Sampson break the UT single-season rushing TD record (19).

  • South Carolina touchdown!

    The Gamecocks will win another big game! LaNorris Sellers hits Joshua Simon for a short pass and he runs it 57 yards for a touchdown.

    South Carolina 37, Texas A&M 20

  • Touchdown Clemson

    It's too little, too late for the Tigers as Phil Mafah scores a touchdown.

    Louisville 33, Clemson 21

  • South Carolina forces a punt

    Texas A&M faces a fourth-and-21 against South Carolina with just over five minutes to play.

  • Touchdown Louisville!

    This is ball game, people! Isaac Brown just broke through the Clemson defense for a quick 45-yard touchdown run, and that's almost enough in this case.

    Louisville 33, Clemson 14

  • Louisville gets an onside kick

    After oddly opting for an extra point instead of a two-point conversion, Clemson shoots an onside kick and Louisville recovers it. So the Tigers are still down 12 with less than 6 minutes to play.

  • Touchdown Kentucky!

    Just when you thought Tennessee would take this hit, UK comes right back with a TD push led by new QB Gavin Wimsatt. The 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 attempt.

    Tennessee 21, Kentucky 18

  • Touchdown Clemson

    The Tigers get a goal back on a short run from Phil Mafah but they are running out of time. We are now under the 6 minute mark.

    Louisville 26, Clemson 14

  • Intercept South Carolina!

    The Gamecocks got the ball back due to a poor decision by Marcel Reed. It briefly appeared that O'Donnell Fortune had returned the interception for a touchdown, but it was determined that he had dropped out.

    There are less than 14 minutes left.

  • 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 from Kentucky QB Brock Vandagriff. Brooks returned the ball to the UK 10-yard line to set up the score.

    Tennessee 21, Kentucky 10, end 3

    Here is 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.

  • End of 3rd quarter: Louisville 26, Clemson 7

    The Tigers look for a score late in the third quarter, but they are quickly running out of time in this crucial ACC matchup.

  • Tennessee takes the lead again!

    Dylan Sampson's 7-yard rush puts the Vols back in the lead. UT took advantage of a short field set up by a fumble by UK quarterback Brock Vandagriff.

    Tennessee 14, Kentucky 10

  • South Carolina attacks FG

    The Gamecocks now have a 10-point lead after an Alex Herrera field goal. The Aggies offense was not effective at all in the second half.

    South Carolina 30, Texas A&M 20

  • Tennessee misses another FG

    Max Gilbert is not having a good day. He narrowly missed his third field goal attempt of the game, this time from 34 yards. Vols really struggled to score in the red zone today.

    Kentucky 10, Tennessee 7
