Starting quarterback Kevin Kolb finished 11-of-25 for 103 yards and was picked off once while LeSean McCoy carried five times for 28 yards and a touchdown.

Matt Cassel connected on 14-of-23 for only 85 yards with a TD and interception. Rookie Dexter McCluster added 47 yards rushing on eight tries while Jamaal Charles chipped in with 40 yards on six attempts for the Chiefs, who dropped to 0-3 in regular season tune-ups.

The Eagles forced an interception later in the opening quarter and turned it into a 39-yard David Akers field goal to make it a 10-0 game.

Kansas City got back into the contest late in the half on a four-yard touchdown pass from Cassel to Dwayne Bowe.

The Chiefs took a 14-10 lead on Thomas Jones' 11-yard scoring scamper that was set up by an interception.

Akers' second boot of the night, from 27 yards away, 10 seconds into the final stanza trimmed the deficit to 14-13. Ryan Succop's field goal from 43 yards out just before the two-minute warning pushed the hosts' lead to four.

Will Ohio State continue to run the table in College Football betting odds?
MySportsbook.com favors Buckeyes, Fighting Irish and Golden Bears in this weekend's big games.

NEW YORK, NY, Sept. 21 - My Sportsbook NCAA football fans: things are beginning to get really interesting on college football's national stage. Following last weekend's "Separation Saturday", which included five teams ranked in the top 15 dropping games, the BCS Championship picture is beginning to take shape - with Ohio State leading the charge. And, according to odds makers at MySportsbook.com, the number-one-ranked Buckeyes will continue their winning ways this weekend.

Revenge will be the name of the game in Columbus this Saturday, as Ohio State looks to even the score following last season's loss to Joe Paterno's Nittany Lions. Although Penn State are listed as 16.5 point underdogs, they are 11-10 all-time versus the Buckeyes. Paterno and the Lions, however, will have to shut down Heisman Trophy favorite Troy Smith who has thrown for 769 yards and seven touchdowns this season.

Speaking of revenge, Notre Dame will be out for some against Michigan State, following last year's 44 - 41 overtime loss to the Spartans in South Bend. The thirteenth-ranked Irish, listed as a 3-point favorite, will also be looking to avenge last Saturday's thrashing from the Michigan Wolverines. The Spartans, meanwhile, have won seven of the last nine match-ups against Notre Dame and are coming off an impressive 38-23 victory over Pittsburgh.

Out west, 22nd-ranked Arizona State will be battling for their first victory over 21st-ranked California since 2000. Although the Golden Bears are listed as 7.5-point favorites, the Sun Devils are 3-0, lead the nation in sacks with 18 and possess the Pac-10's leading passer in sophomore quarterback Rudy Carpenter.
