FORT WORTH, Texas (AP) — Jarret Doege threw a 35-yard touchdown pass to Isaiah Esdale with 2 minutes left and West Virginia beat TCU 20-17.

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Sam Ehlinger passed for two touchdowns and ran for another to send Texas to a 49-24 win over Texas Tech.

Ehlinger scored his first rushing touchdown in five games, and later connected on scoring strikes of 75 yards to Devin Duvernay and 26 yards to Jake Smith.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Marcus Zegarowski scored a career-high 32 points on 12-for-18 shooting, and Creighton beat No. 12 Texas Tech 83-76 in overtime. Ty-Shon Alexander had 18 points and 12 rebounds for Creighton in the consolation game of the Las Vegas Invitational.

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) — The New England Patriots have changed kickers once again by signing veteran Kai Forbath.

TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) — Arizona Cardinals cornerback Josh Shaw has been suspended indefinitely for betting on NFL games on multiple occasions this season, the first time in more than 35 years a player has been banned for gambling. The NFL says its investigation found no evidence that Shaw used inside information or compromised any games.

ENGLEWOOD, Colo. (AP) — Denver Broncos coach Vic Fangio still isn’t saying who will start at quarterback against the Los Angeles Chargers tomorrow, even though he said rookie Drew Lock played well while taking three-fourths of the snaps with the starters at practice this week. Fangio says he still wants to look at the practice film of Lock and Brandon Allen, who has gone 1-2 as Denver’s starting QB since Joe Flacco went on injured reserve after eight games with a neck injury.
NEW YORK (AP) — Brooklyn Nets point guard Kyrie Irving has begun working on the court but will sit out at least one more game because of an injured right shoulder.
