Deshaun Watson picked the right time to rediscover last seasons Heisman Trophy-finalist form in a win over No. Swell Water Bottle Sale . 7 Louisville on Saturday night.The Clemson quarterback, after struggling -- relatively -- through the first four games of the season, set season highs in passing yards (306), rushing yards (91) and total offense (397) in the 42-36 victory for the No. 3 Tigers .Watson finished third in last years Heisman Trophy voting and entered this season as one of the favorites.That was before Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson stormed to the national forefront of the Heisman race with 25 total touchdowns through the Cardinals first four games.Jackson added to his touchdown total with three more (one passing, two rushing) on Saturday night, but Watson showed the country that sometimes old reliable is every bit as good -- or better- as the new kid on the block.And he did so while overcoming three interceptions and helping Clemson recover after losing an 18-point lead.I cant even begin to describe it, Watson said. One of the best experiences Ive ever had.Watson also added to his school record with a touchdown pass in his 21st straight game, and his five touchdown passes were his most since he threw the same in a win at North Carolina State last season.Not bad for the quarterback many considered the second best on the field entering Saturdays game.Some other notable performances from across the country as the regular season nears its halfway point:SOUTHERN RECEIPE: The weekends top passing performance belonged to Southern Miss senior Nick Mullens, who threw for a school-record 591 yards in a 44-28 win over Rice on Saturday night. Mullens broke Austin Davis previous school best of 461 yards, and the fourth-year starter now has 76 touchdown passes in his career.STAGGERING STAGGERS: Mullens had plenty of help on the receiving end of his career night, most notably from junior wide receiver Allenzae Staggers -- who had 292 yards receiving on six catches. Staggers, a junior college transfer in his first season with the Golden Eagles, had touchdown receptions of 75, 81 and 93 yards in the victory and topped the previous school-best of 260 yards set by Kendrick Lee in 1996.WILLIAMS RESURGENCE: Jamall Williams has topped the 1,000-yard rushing mark in a season before, having done so two years ago for BYU. The senior is already closing in on that mark after a career-high 286-yard rushing performance in a 55-53 win over Toledo on Friday night. Williams also ran for a school-record five touchdowns in the win, and hes now second nationally with 703 yards rushing for the season.PASSING FANCY: Texas Tech long ago turned the forward pass into a way of life, but even this is getting out of hand for the high-flying Air Raid offense. After a 55-19 win over Kansas on Thursday night, the Red Raiders are now averaging 547.8 yards per game through the air -- tops in the country and nearly 120 yards per game ahead of second-place Cal.RIGHT PRICE: Pittsburgh defensive lineman Ejuan Price was already one of the top defensive players in the Atlantic Coast Conference a year ago, finishing with 11 + sacks last season. The senior has picked right up where he left off this season, leading the country with 7 + sacks through five games after two sacks in a win over Marshall on Saturday.

Just as Montreal was settling into the first full working week of a new year, the Impact announced the appointment of their new head coach. BATON ROUGE, La. -- LSU interim coach Ed Orgeron smiled patiently while fielding questions about his long-term future at LSU, and politely tried to steer the conversation toward Thursdays regular season finale at Texas A&M.We said in the beginning, let the chips fall where they may, Orgeron said Monday. Its getting close. We understand that. But we need to finish this job first.Orgeron added that he and LSU athletic director Joe Alleva havent discussed anything yet, but probably will after the game.Support for Orgeron, a Louisiana native raised in a heavily Cajun community southwest of New Orleans, grew considerably after LSU won the first three games of his tenure by lopsided margins. A 10-0 loss to Alabama hurt, but the Tigers were not widely expected to win that game and bounced back with a rout of Arkansas on the road.Yet Saturdays 16-10 loss to Florida was different. Odds makers had listed LSU as a two-touchdown favorite and the Tigers entered the game as a potential front-runner for the Southeastern Conferences Sugar Bowl bid. The Gators had a handful of starters injured, but took a tenuous lead in the second half and held on with a goal-line stand in the final seconds.Since then, several LSU players have taken it upon themselves to go into damage-control mode on behalf of the man they affectionately call Coach O, blaming the loss on their own mistakes and touting Orgerons credentials.Coach O will tell you it was all his fault on Saturday, but really it wasnt. It wasnt any one persons fault, said fullback J.D. Moore, who was stopped on a third-and-goal play from the 1 in the final minute, one play before Florida clinched the victory -- and the SEC East crown- by stopping running back Derrius Guice from the same distance.We are just as responsible as he is, Moore said. A lot of the plays we had called were the right plays and we just didnt execute it well. So for that to just be chalked up for him as a loss isnt fair.Moore and linebacker Donnie Alexander said they understood that the decision is out of their hands, so theyre trying to heed Orgerons call to focus on playing the Aggies. But Alexander added, Were all for coach O.If we had the choice, we would want to keep him here, continued Alexander, a junnior middle linebacker who is slated to start in place of injured senior Kendell Beckwith. Swell Water Bottle Floral. We only took two losses under Coach O and it wasnt like big losses to where we got blown out. It was like, missed keys or missed plays and stuff like that. Its not like hes doing anything wrong.LSU (6-4, 4-3 SEC) was 2-2 when Orgeron took over for Les Miles, who was fired following a loss at Auburn in late September.Alleva, who usually attends the head football coachs Monday luncheons, was not present this time. On Saturday, he said on an LSU Radio Network interview that there are a lot of great people interested in the LSU coaching job.Orgeron has been through this before, having taken over when Lane Kiffen was fired at Southern California in 2013 and coaching the Trojans to a 6-2 record, including a bowl victory, only to see USC hire someone else to replace him.The LSU coaching job is seen as one of the most desirable in college football, given the universitys ability to pay top dollar, its top-flight facilities, rabid fan base and the fact that it has no true in-state rival in the recruiting hotbed that is Louisiana.In recent months, Florida State coach Jimbo Fisher and Houston coach Tom Herman have been bombarded with questions about their interest in LSU. Other coaches who fit the mold of fielding modern, high-scoring offenses include West Virginias Dana Holgorsen and North Carolinas Larry Fedora.Fisher has a history at LSU, having served as Tigers offensive coordinator. But on Monday, Florida State President John Thrasher predicted that Fisher is going to stay at Florida State, adding, I know my coach.If theres something he wants, well look for it, but he hasnt given me any indication hes unhappy with anything, Thrasher added.Fisher meanwhile, said he was extremely happy at Florida State, when he was asked about how rumors of LSUs interest in him have affected his recruiting efforts.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 .---Gary Fineout and Joe Reedy of The Associated Press contributed to this report from Tallahassee, Florida.
