The college football transfer portal has opened a day after the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff field was released.

Oklahoma appears to have borrowed from the past to cure its recent offensive ills.

No. 15 UTSA’s undefeated season has ended in a blowout as North Texas running backs DeAndre Torrey and Ikaika Ragsdale combined for five touchdowns in a 45-23 rout of the Roadrunners.

Peoples ran for a bowl-record 317 yards and tied another mark with five rushing touchdowns to lead the Mountaineers past North Texas 56-28. North Texas (4-6) of Conference USA fell behind 28-7 and had no answer for Peoples or the App State rushing game, which finished with 500 yards. The Frisco Bowl, set to start bowl season last Saturday, was canceled when the virus struck SMU, one of that game's teams. “If you're going to give up explosive (plays), you're going to have a long day,” North Texas coach Sam Littrell said. Before the game, North Texas announced leading rusher DeAndre Torrey and second-leading receiver Deonte Simpson would not play against the Mountaineers.

Then came the expanded protocols and increased costly testing necessary to play upper-division schools during a pandemic. It is for the Huskies, who return senior standouts at all offensive skill positions after a school-record five wins last season. Houston Baptist made the 300-mile bus ride to Denton, Texas, for the season opener Saturday night at North Texas. The Southland Conference would require only once-a-week testing, but the Huskies have to follow the rules of their opponents' conferences. So it's a lot of different emotions, and certainly more running the gamut than in a normal year," North Texas athletic director Wren Baker said.
