It's already a tired storyline, but we'll get through it together until it becomes totally exhausted. San Diego State is the Pac-12 team here, UCLA is the Big Ten team, and even if it doesn't quite feel right, it's a big game for both.
The Aztecs want to be a player in the hunt for a College Football Playoff spot, but this is the one shot to take down a Power Four program. Coming off a good 53-20 warm-up win over Portland State, SDSU is as ready as it's going to be.
UCLA is the big story, though. Bob Chesney's first game as the new head coach was close to perfect, with the ground game pounding away through Cal in a 45-24 win.
It seems like these two should've played more than 17 times. UCLA won the last meeting in 2023 and is 16-1 all-time in the series.
San Diego State can lose this and still be alive for the CFP, but it would need to beat James Madison next week. The Pac-12 season starts against Texas State in early October.
UCLA starts the Big Ten season next week when Purdue comes to Los Angeles. It gets Maryland after that before going to Oregon.

Allan Saint-Maximin could have stayed quiet.
But the French winger felt it was "important to step up" and speak out after his children were racially abused this year.
"Whatever your colour is, you don't have to accept this," he tells BBC Sport.
Saint-Maximin made it clear on Instagram in January that "hatred and discrimination have no place in our society".
The lengthy post was liked by more than 159,000 people, including former Newcastle United team-mates Kieran Trippier and Joelinton.

The Reds' Elly De La Cruz came to the rescue of a bird struggling to get off the field and brought it to safety during the fourth inning of Cincinnati's series-concluding win against the Milwaukee Brewers at Great American Ball Park.
"Elly De La Cruz: full-time baseball player, part-time bird whisperer," the Reds tweeted with video.
When De La Cruz homered in the bottom half of the same inning, the Reds tweeted, "Bye bye birdie."

Philadelphia 76ers star Jaylen Brown is one who has many interests outside of the game of basketball. He took classes at MIT to further his education, he has done a lot in the community in terms of his philanthropic work, and now has taken on surfing, apparently.
Video footage of Brown surfing has recently popped up around social media and it's due to two USA swimmers who found a random GoPro camera and decided to look at what's stored on the camera.
Swimmers Patrick Sammon and Michael Andrew recanted the story about how they found Brown's GoPro and what they did with it:
Sammon: As soon we turned it on, we're like, 'Oh, this guy looks super familiar.'
Andrew: And for sure an athlete. Like, this guy's huge.

Virginia Tech hoops head coach Mike Young will have at least one more season to try to right the ship. Young was entering the final year of his contract this season, but he signed a one-year extension at the end of July. Young was one of several Hokies head coaches extended along with women's basketball head coach Megan Duffy, swim and dive coach Sergio Lopez Miro, men's soccer head coach Mike Brizendine and softball head coach Pete D'Amour.
#hokies giving Mike Young 1-year contract extension. So he is no longer entering final year of his contract. Now under contract through 2027-28 season. Extensions also for Duffy, D’Amour, Brizendine, Lopez Miro. Pay hike for Robie, whose deal had been extended in Jan.
— Mark Berman (BermanRoanoke) July 29, 2026
With the extension, Young will make $3 million this year and in 2027-28. According to Thomas Hughes of Virginia Tech Hokies on SI, Young will receive a $2 million buyout if he is fired on or before next March 15, and $1 million if axed before March 15, 2028.
Young, who took over for Buzz Williams when he left for Texas A&M in 2019, led the Hokies to two NCAA Tournaments in his first three seasons. But the Hokies haven't been back since and haven't posted a winning record in ACC play the last four seasons. He is 124-98 in seven seasons with the Hokies, though just 60-70 in conference play.

The US women's basketball team for the 2026 FIBA World Cup will be without two familiar faces in A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum.
A'ja Wilson and Kelsey Plum's decision to sit out the 2026 FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup has led to many doubting Team USA's chances of winning the gold medal.
However, USABWNT head coach Kara Lawson isn't worried. If anything, the coach has already moved on from her two veteran stars.

During a press conference before the FIBA Women's Basketball World Cup kicks off, Lawson shared her honest reaction to Wilson and Plum's absence from Team USA.

Pakistan's head coach and captain merry-go-round: Are the players scapegoats in a systemic issue? originally appeared on Cricket News. Add Cricket News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Pakistan's Test squad and coaching staff faced a wholesale overhaul mid-series in England.
Five years since Ehsan Mani's exit, Pakistan cricket has cycled through constant captaincy, coaching, and administrative instability.
Pakistan's overall records across formats show declining Test performance despite reasonable success in white-ball ICC tournaments.
There's an easy target sitting right in front of us every time Pakistan's cricketers walk out to bat or bowl, and when the team fails miserably, they become sitting ducks waiting for **** fire to be showered on them from all directions.

The Dallas Cowboys saw one of their bubble players suffer an apparent injury halfway through the second quarter of their preseason finale against the New Orleans Saints. It was Marist Liufau who had the apparent wrist injury.
The broadcast noted that Liufau was labeled as questionable to return to the game with a wrist injury. He could indeed be seen grabbing at his wrist as he took a knee on the ground and had to be tended to. He has been one of the players on the roster bubble with regards to making the team in general, and it goes without saying that this could be a potential factor in that math.
Time will tell what his status is moving forward and into Sunday when roster cuts are due as teams have to create an initial 53-man roster. The team likes his special teams ability, but this injury could be a deciding factor depending on severity.

Hakan Calhanoglu and Inter have decided to play out the final year of his deal without discussing an extension this summer, which has been free of transfer market-related tribulations, unlike the previous ones.
According to La Gazzetta dello Sport, the decision came more from the team than the player. The Nerazzurri don't question his quality but want to see how he holds up physically. He was productive but fragile last year. He missed nearly half of the matches because of a few different injuries.
Calhanoglu has flirted a few times with Galatasaray and could indeed head to Turkey after his time with Inter is over. However, if this campaign goes well, a renewal wouldn't be out of the question. The 'regista' remains central in Christian Chivu's plans. Piotr Zielinski has filled in nicely in the role last year, and the gaffer is trying to turn Aleksandar Stankovic into a deep-lying playmaker, but the 32-year-old is by far the top option when healthy.
The manager is a big fan of the midfielder. He significantly helped ease tensions in the locker room after his past sagas. In particular, the veteran had more than one foot out the door after the Club World Cup. He even quarreled with some teammates, but then the situation was eventually resolved.
It'd be strange if things were already decided with a year to go; otherwise, the Nerazzurri would have probably considered a sale, even though it wouldn't have fetched enough to acquire a worthy replacement. It'll also depend on his demands, as his salary is robust. Injuries have indeed become a problem, but he has a few more good campaigns in him in a part-time role.

It's almost time for the real thing: the NFL season is around the corner. But first, the final week of NFL preseason games comes your way starting Thursday.
A total of four games are set for Thursday night, and they will all give teams an opportunity to see how their 53-man rosters may stack up come the roster cutdown deadline on Sunday, Aug. 30 at 6 p.m. ET. Soon, players of all levels of experience will be searching for new NFL homes – or see the end of their NFL dream.
Some positions have already been settled: Deshaun Watson will get the keys as the Cleveland Browns' QB1, coming out on top of the quarterback battle with Shedeur Sanders. It seemingly didn't take much for Kyler Murray to unseat J.J. McCarthy in the Minnesota Vikings quarterback battle, either. Now, all eyes rest on the Atlanta Falcons, who have yet to officially name a starter for Week 1 between Michael Penix Jr. and Tua Tagovailoa.
While there are other roster decisions coming soon, the final week of the preseason may offer some insight on which position battles are settled, and which roster spots need another few days of deliberation from coaching staffs and front offices.
Here's what to know about the preseason Week 3 schedule:
