By point-spread standards, Howard pulled off perhaps the biggest upset in modern college football history Saturday night. The Bison, an FCS team from the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference, entered as 45-point road underdogs against UNLV and stunned the Rebels 43-40 in Las Vegas. Since 2005, there have been 254 games featuring point spreads of 40 or greater, according to sports betting database BetLabSports.com. Before Saturday, 40-plus-point favorites were 253-0 straight-up.

Howard was not the only massive FCS underdog to pull off a stunner Saturday. Liberty, a 33-point road underdog, outlasted Baylor 48-43.

Caylin Newton, the younger brother of NFL star Cam Newton, led his 45-point underdog Howard team to the biggest upset in college football history based on point spread. Howard quarterback Caylin Newton, the younger brother of Carolina Panthers star Cam Newton, accounted for 330 total offensive yards and three touchdowns to lead the upset Saturday in the debut for new Bison coach Mike London. Newton had 21 carries for 190 yards and two scores and passed for 140 and a score.

Well... either Aggie is going to be a factor in the SEC or UCLA is soft.


Maybe both.

This is crazy. I was excited for this game but didn't tune in until halftime when it was 41-10....so went back to the other one. Then saw it was 44-30 and started watching and saw the A&M QB run for a td, but had stepped out of bounds...then they take a sack out of fg range.

Now 44-38? This is almost like the Super Bowl.

Not a good weekend in football for Texas schools. Blowing 34 pt lead. Giving up 51 to Maryland. Liberty.

Rosen was impressive. I haven't seen enough of the Wyoming QB. But I'm not sure who I would give the edge between Rosen & Darnold.

That may have not cost Sumlin his job...

But he had better not lose again this season.

The 2 qb's that were suppose to be the future for the aggies are at OU and Houston, he doesn't have a qb on the roster worth a damn.

He's toast

How do you manage to scare off three top qb recruits in 2 years? To think this guy was rejecting nfl jobs just few years ago

Well this is apparently from the guy A&M's learning center is named after, so not great for Sumlin.
