OXFORD, Miss. -- Kamryn Pettway smashed his 240-pound body into Mississippis defensive line and then disappeared for a moment behind a pile of bodies. A second later, he appeared a few yards downfield, accelerated and was gone for 41 yards and a touchdown.Auburns broad-shouldered sophomore was well on his way to a career night.No. 15 Auburn beat Mississippi 40-29 on Saturday, pulling away in the fourth quarter after a tight game for most of the night. Pettway finished with a career-high 236 yards rushing, beating his previous high of 192 set last week against Arkansas.The offensive line did a good job, Auburn coach Gus Malzahn said. But he also just ran over some people.Ole Miss Chad Kelly threw for a school-record 465 yards, beating Archie Mannings previous mark of 436 yards set in 1969. Kelly also threw three touchdown passes and one interception.But the Rebels couldnt keep up with Auburn, which finished with 554 total yards.I hate losing more than anything, Kelly said. I dont know what else to say.Auburn (6-2, 4-1 Southeastern Conference) won its fifth straight. Ole Miss (3-5, 1-4) lost its third in a row.The defense has picked us up at certain points this year, Auburn quarterback Sean White said. Tonight, we had to pick them up a little bit.Ole Miss took a 22-20 lead into the locker room and had its chances in the second half, but once again blew a halftime lead. The Rebels have five losses this season despite never trailing at the break.The backbreaker for Ole Miss was midway through the fourth quarter when a wide-open Evan Engram dropped what would have almost certainly been a go-ahead touchdown. It marred an otherwise excellent night for the senior tight end -- he finished with a team-high nine catches for 95 yards and a touchdown.I was wide open, Engram said. Chad threw it on a line. It was low and I didnt get it. It was there for me.On the very next play, Kelly threw his only interception of the night and Auburn returned it to the Ole Miss 25.Three plays later, Kerryon Johnson scored on a 3-yard touchdown run and Auburn stretched its lead to 40-29.We battled toe to toe for most of the game, Ole Miss coach Hugh Freeze said. But for whatever reason, in this game you have years where the margin of error for a team is just so small and one or two plays make such a huge impact.GREAT KICKERSAuburns offense got a big assist from kicker Daniel Carlson, who made all four of his field goal attempts, including a crucial one from 47 yards in the fourth quarter that gave the Tigers a 33-29 lead.Hes the best kicker in the country, Malzahn said. Really made some pressure kicks.Ole Miss Gary Wunderlich was nearly as good. He made all three of his field goals, including one that was a career-high 49 yards.THE TAKEAWAYAuburn: The Tigers continued their impressive run despite looking a little shaky on defense. Auburns running game has been absolutely dominant and the Tigers now have three winnable games against Vanderbilt, Georgia and Alabama A&M before what could be a very interesting Iron Bowl showdown against Alabama.Ole Miss: The Rebels season continues to turn sour. Two months ago, Ole Miss thought it might have a chance to win the SECs Western Division. Now the Rebels might struggle to qualify for a bowl game.UP NEXTAuburn: The Tigers host Vanderbilt next weekend.Ole Miss: The Rebels host Georgia Southern next weekend.-----Follow David Brandt on Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbrandtAP .

I have never done this before, to respond real quick and play another game. But I love ball, and I love these games. Im excited for it and Im looking forward to it.Prescott and running back Ezekiel Elliott have electrified the Cowboys attack.

Elliott ran for 97 yards.The only 10-1 start in Cowboys history came in 2007.

You cant put all the eggs in one basket for one game. We have to continue to come out here and put the work in every week. This is going to be a quick week for us, we play another on Thanksgiving.That game means a lot for us. We see everybody winning in our division and we still have a lot of work to put in to get to where we need to get to. We know whats at stake and we know what we want to accomplish at the same time.Washington is off to its best start since opening 7-3 in 1996.

Once again, I feel like I say it every week, but welcome to the NFL.It doesnt get any easier from here in our division. A lot of people wanted to take shots at it last year and said, You know, its not a very good division. I think this year proves that in the NFL everybody is good.The Cowboys have faced the Redskins a franchise-high seven times on Thanks?giving and hold a 6-1 record.
