Before Robert Griffin III made the jump to television and started dishing out his share of wild takes, he was known for his speed. That makes the way that Clemson coach Dabo Swinney blew past him on Saturday even more impressive.
Griffin was on hand for the Tigers’ game against North Carolina, and Griffin decided to see if he could keep up with Swinney and his team as they made their iconic entrance into Death Valley.
The ex-NFL QB tried to time it so that he was running with Swinney, but the 53-year-old head coach had a full head of steam and no one was catching him.

The rules of football can be confounding. What is a catch? Depends on who you ask. How many points are kicks worth? One or three, it sort of depends.
But the convoluted rules of football are worth it when they come up in big moments, as Kansas State and Kansas showed in their rivalry match on Saturday.
The Jayhawks had just scored to go up 13–7 with the extra point pending. But before that lead could reach 14–7, the Wildcats blocked the Jayhawks’ extra point attempt, and cornerback Keenan Garber returned it all the way back to the end zone for two points.
Just when you thought Auburn was turning the page this season, New Mexico State came barreling into town. After winning three games in row, Hugh Freeze had one more game to prepare for Alabama, but the Aggies had other plans.
There was nothing pretty about what went down at Auburn today in-front of a stunned crowd that headed towards the exits mid-way through the fourth quarter. It’s not as if New Mexico State should’ve been sneaking up on the Tigers, entering the game with a 8-3 record on the season.
UCF kicker Colton Boomer is one of the most reliable kickers in college football but the sophomore showed on Saturday against Texas Tech that his legs aren’t just for kicking.
The guy has some serious wheels, and he showed them off on a nifty fake punt that the Knights ran against Texas Tech.
Late in the first quarter, Boomer lined up for what looked to be about a 45-yard attempt on 4th-and-3. The dude has the leg for that and then some, so Texas Tech was probably expecting UCF to take the 3 points and extend its early lead to 10.
Nope.
USC entered Saturday on a 1-4 run, with embarrassing losses to Notre Dame, Utah, Washington and Oregon sandwiched around a 1-point win over Cal.
Despite the disappointing 7-4 record, the Trojans and head coach Lincoln Riley matched up against the rival UCLA Bruins with a chance to salvage one meaningful win in a frustrating season. UCLA head coach Chip Kelly had also reportedly found himself on the hot seat after a series of poor offensive performances.
USC, especially with the game at the LA Memorial Coliseum, unsurprisingly opened as a 5-point favorite.
The No. 5 Huskies put their unbeaten record and CFP hopes on the line at the No. 11 Beavers: Also: No. 4 FSU struggling as 47.5-point favorites, Kansas vs. K-State, and more.
ESPN’s Molly McGrath was reminded of the hazards sideline reporters can often face while working Saturday’s Louisville–Miami ACC showdown.
McGrath, who was waiting to speak with Cardinals coach Jeff Brohm, unfortunately wound up being in the direct line of fire of the team’s celebratory Gatorade bath following their 38-31 victory over the Hurricanes.
While Brohm was standing next to McGrath for a postgame on-field interview, Louisville players showered their coach.

Florida State quarterback Jordan Travis suffered a gruesome looking leg injury that occurred on a first down run against North Alabama. The gruesome play occurred as the Seminoles trailed 13-0 in the first quarter.
After taking off for the first down, it looked as if Jordan Travis planted is left leg into the ground and immediately went down in pain. His lower leg could be seen pointing in the opposite direction.
The Eagles waived their 1994 first-round draft pick on Thursday. That is not a typo.
