Hopefully more people are coming but this will start in a bit.

NC State will be without senior running back Jordan Waters.

California is without star running back Jaydn Ott. The backup, Jaivian Thomas, is fast and talented, but then it's big drop off after him.

Former Maryland tight end Corey Dyches, the second tight end, is also out.

Running box score and play-by-play.

One of the bright young lights in coaching, South Florida coach Amir Abdur-Rahim, has passed away at age 43. He did an incredible job at Kennesaw State, and then turned around South Florida last year in impressive fashion. He's the brother of former NBA star Shareef Abdur-Rahim, and his nephew plays at Providence.

Former Georgetown and NBA center Dikembe Mutombo has passed away at 58 years old from brain cancer. Mutombo was an eight-time NBA all-star, four-time defensive player of the year and in the NBA Hall of Fame. Was one-half of twin towers with Alonzo Mourning at Georgetown. He finished his NBA career averaging 9.8 points, 10.3 rebounds and 2.8 blocks per game. The final numbers are skewed a tad when he accepted coming off the bench his final years in the league.

His finger wag after a blocked shot will always be legendary.

All the hype over him and he’s not playing red shirt or injured?

Has retired from football. Tough decision but the right decision. He will be a good coach. He can be a graduate coach for State. Best of luck to Grayson.
