KENTUCKY 38, NO. 9 LOUISVILLE 31

LOUISVILLE, Ky. — Ray Davis broke free for a go-ahead, 37-yard touchdown run with 1:02 remaining and caught two second-half touchdowns, helping Kentucky rally past Louisville in the Governor’s Cup.

Davis’ third score capped a wild second half in which the Bluegrass State rivals combined for 42 points and closed by alternating touchdowns.

Louisville (10-2, No. 10 CFP) tied the game at 31-all on Jack Plummer’s 21-yard touchdown pass to Ahmari Huggins-Bruce with 2:33 remaining. Jarvis Brownlee Jr. set up that score by intercepting Devin Leary’s floating pass as he was hit by Ashton Gillotte.

Kentucky (7-5) quickly drove into Louisville territory, and Davis found room on the left side and was gone for his 20th score that broke Benny Snell’s season record set in 2017.

Davis carried 14 times for 76 yards and caught four passes for 51 yards, including two 20-yard TDs from Leary.

The Wildcats won their fifth consecutive Governor’s Cup. Kentucky is bowl-bound but limped in with five losses in six games; Louisville is about to play for the Atlantic Coast Conference title and a possible New Year’s Six bowl game.

Plummer completed 24 of 33 passes for 242 yards and two scores for Louisville.

DUKE 30, PITTSBURGH 19

DURHAM, N.C. — Grayson Loftis threw for two touchdowns and Duke snapped a two-game skid by defeating Pittsburgh 30-19 to end the regular season and secure a second straight winning season Saturday. Loftis threw for 248 yards, with 106 of those to Jordan Moore and 71 to Jalon Calhoun. Both those receivers had touchdown receptions as Duke (7-5, 4-4 Atlantic Coast Conference) snapped a two-game skid to complete its first undefeated conference home slate since 1989. Nate Yarnell threw for two touchdowns and an interception for the Panthers (3-9, 2-6), who went winless in six games away from home. Pitt never won consecutive games this year.

SYRACUSE 35, WAKE FOREST 31

SYRACUSE, N.Y — Garrett Shrader threw for three touchdowns and ran for another, Daniel Villari threw for one and rushed for one, Damien Alford had two scores, and Syracuse became bowl eligible for the second straight season, defeating Wake Forest 35-31. With Wake Forest trailing 35-31 and headed for a potential game-winning score, Syracuse’s Jason Simmons intercepted Michael Kern at the 1-yard-line with two minutes remaining to secure the win.
