College football is back!
We had two outstanding season openers on Thursday night.
In the first game of the evening, Michigan fell to Utah, 24-17, spoiling Jim Harbaugh's head coaching debut.
The late game saw No. 2 TCU top Minnesota at home, 23-17. The Gophers haven't beaten a Top 10 team at home since 1977.
Check out all of Thursday's scores with our Big Ten scoreboard.

TCU 23, MINNESOTA 17: BOX | PBP | RECAP
Trevone Boykin and No. 2 TCU got quite a test from Minnesota in their opener. Boykin threw for 246 yards and a touchdown and ran for 92 yards and another score to help the Horned Frogs outlast Minnesota 23-17 on Thursday night.
The @GopherFootball defense forces another turnover after nabbing the Trevone Boykin pass. http://t.co/FVomSzvP9r
