Noah Fifita threw for 376 yards while completing passes to 10 different receivers in Arizona's 41-13 victory Saturday over Oklahoma State in a Big 12 game at Tucson, Ariz. Fifita, who completed 28 of 38 pass attempts, tied a career high with five touchdown passes and had an interception. Oklahoma State (1-4, 0-2 Big 12) played its second game without fired head coach Mike Gundy and first without defensive coordinator Todd Grantham, who was let go Monday. Arizona's defense limited Oklahoma State to 158 yards of total offense — 69 passing and 89 rushing — and forced two turnovers. Tre Spivey, a transfer from Kansas State, scored the first two touchdowns for Arizona on receptions of 13 of 22 yards that put the Wildcats ahead 14-3 with 1:26 left in the first quarter. Spivey finished with three catches for 80 yards. Arizona (4-1, 1-1) increased the lead to 21-3 with 6:20 left in the second quarter after Fifita scrambled away from a blitz and found New Mexico transfer Luke Wysong for a 47-yard touchdown. It was the first touchdown with Arizona for Wysong, who had five receptions for 92 yards. Oklahoma State cut the lead to 21-6 with 1:01 left in the half when Logan Ward made his second field goal, a 46-yarder with 1:05 left in the half. Arizona's Michael Salgado-Medina then converted a 34-yard field goal as time expired in the half for a 24-6 lead at the break. The Wildcats had an opportunity to build on their lead with 7:14 left in the third quarter after Tre Smith recovered a fumble at the Oklahoma State 44 that was coughed up by Ronnie Fields Jr. following a strip by Max Harris. A 45-yard pass from Fifita to Spivey took the ball to the Oklahoma State 1. Fifita then fumbled the ball away at that spot with 5:33 remaining in the quarter when Gregory Wendell punched the ball loose and Brian McCoy Jr. recovered. After a three-and-out forced by Arizona's defense, Fifita atoned for his fumble by completing a touchdown pass to Javion Whatley. The 21-yard strike increased Arizona's lead to 31-6 with 2:58 left in the third quarter. Fifita, who added a 29-scoring play a minute later, now has 57 touchdown passes in his career, which is tied for third at Arizona with Khalil Tate. –Field Level Media

CJ Bailey completed 20 of 23 passes for 337 yards and four touchdowns as host North Carolina State defeated Campbell 56-10 Saturday. The Wolfpack (4-2) scored touchdowns on their first eight possessions. The Fighting Camels (1-5) didn't make a stop until Bailey was out of the game. NC State outgained Campbell 607-188. The 49 points were the most NC State has scored in the first half since 2004. After losing back-to-back Atlantic Coast Conference games in the past two weeks, the Wolfpack outgained the Camels 482-99 in the first half, the most first-half yards by any college football team this season. NC State was coming off a 23-21 loss to Virginia Tech and 45-33 loss to Duke in the past two weeks. Sophomore Hollywood Smothers dominated on the ground in the first half, gaining 123 yards on four carries and a touchdown. Smothers also caught two passes for 30 yards and a touchdown. Jayden Scott finished with 89 yards on 10 carries with two touchdowns. Terrell Anderson, Cody Hardy, Smothers and Justin Joly all caught touchdown passes as six different NC State players reached the end zone. The Wolfpack scored first when Will Wilson capped a 75-yard, five-play drive with a 2-yard run with 13:03 left in the first quarter. The Camels took advantage of a muffed punt by NC State's Teddy Hoffmann to tie the game with 8:54 left in the first quarter. Campbell took over at the NC State 14 and two plays later Kamden Sixkiller hit Mike Chandler for a 13-yard touchdown and a 7-7 game. That was the last highlight of the first half for the Camels as the Wolfpack ran off 42 straight points before halftime amid 49 straight overall. Smothers ripped off a 59-yard scoring run one play after the Camels had tied it, opening the floodgates. Bailey connected with Hardy from 37 yards out, Smothers from 16 yards away and Anderson 34 yards from distance to push the lead to 35-7 halfway through the second quarter. Scott, a freshman, capped a seven-play, 88-yard drive with a 14-yard scoring run later in the second quarter before finishing a nine-play, 57-yard drive with a 2-yard touchdown run with 6:06 left in the third quarter to wrap up the Wolfpack scoring. In between, Bailey tossed his fourth touchdown to Joly. –Field Level Media
