Notre Dame is now 6-1 and ranked No. 4 in the AP Top 25 after a weird, wild, and controversial loss to the BYU Cougars. Yes, I think the Irish got hosed out of one final play, but none of that matters now. We saw 59 minutes and 59 seconds of football, and there are some things we learned.
Last week Boomer called Boubacar Traore a renaissance man, and he was absolutely right. This week… we got five plays out of Traore before he was ejected for targeting Bear Bachmeier on a late hit. Despite Notre Dame's depth at the position, the loss of Traore was massive for the Irish in the game —particularly in the first half when the defense was on its heels and needed better play up front to slow down what BYU was doing. The loss of Traore might very well be the essence of the full reason for Notre Dame's loss.
This second thing was supposed to be about Jonaz Walton and I went looking for snap counts. While the entire deal about Walton is valid and should be talked about after only getting 10 of the 81 snaps after rushing for 181 yards last week… the wide receiver situation might be the most heinous thing about the offense. On a night where Notre Dame's receivers couldn't get much separation from Cougar defenders, maybe they were gassed? The elevation was well over 5000 feet and Notre Dame only used 4 wide receivers all night. Jordan Faison, Micah Gilbert, and Jaden Greathouse were out there for almost every snap, and the fourth… well that was Mylan Graham with a whopping two snaps for the night.
For a good part of the first half, Notre Dame's defense didn't just play poorly — they looked confused. Presnap lineups and adjustments had several defenders running to the spot they were supposed to be, and BYU was snapping the ball before they got there. It looked very much like the Miami game last year, and some of that confusion led to slow and soft play. This, of course, is a Chris Ash problem and they made the proper adjustments at halftime to hold BYU to just 126 yards and 7 points in the final 29 minutes and 59 seconds of play. But… this is still a thing and will kill the Irish in a few weeks against Miami if it's not fixed for a full 59 minutes and 59 seconds — or do we play 60 minute games now?

For the second time in three weeks, inclement weather factored in several games during Week 3, including a state-ranked showdown between Steele and Lake Travis, which ended in a 28-28 time. LEE climbs into the top 20 for the first time, along with three others. The Volunteers are 3-0 for the first time in 11 years. Brandeis dropped nine spots to No. 15 after a 20-12 loss against New Braunfels Canyon, which climbed three to No. 13. Here's how the Week 4 rankings unfolded:
Record: 2-0
Previous ranking: 1
Next: vs. No. 19 LEE, 7 p.m., Sept. 24, Comalander Stadium
Notable: Johnson needed only one half to dispose of Odessa 37-0 in a weather-shortened contest at Heroes Stadium. The Jaguars have played 3 ½ quarters in two games at Heroes Stadium after weather caused their opener against Judson to end in the middle of the second quarter.

Elena Rybakina is the new US Open champion, having dismantled Aryna Sabalenka in the final with alarming precision.
Aside from a brief lapse in concentration at the end of the second set, the eventual victor was flawless throughout.
Her ball-striking constantly kept the top seed on the back foot, and given the dominant power Aryna Sabalenka usually exhibits over her opponents, this was particularly startling.
It's therefore no surprise that the 28-year-old cut such a frustrated figure throughout the match, hitting ***** , tossing her racket, and shouting and gesturing desperately towards her box.
However, it's what Sabalenka did in the very last game of the entire match that really caught Laura Robson's eye.

The tiresome ongoing saga with Tyson Fury and Anthony Joshua may be nearing a conclusion, with a fight actually happening.
Gareth A Davies is reporting that Cardiff is the new "leading contender" to host the bout on December 4 or 11, provided officials in the Welsh city sign off on an extended curfew, which had become a major issue for the originally agreed location, London's Wembley Stadium.
As you've surely heard by now, Turki Alalshikh — whose backing is paying for the massively expensive, long-overdue showdown — and Netflix have wanted the fight at Madison Square Garden in New York. The Matchroom/Joshua side had balked at this, having signed to fight in the UK.
The latest word is that Cardiff, which was always sort of a darkhorse contender to host the fight, is the new frontrunner, and we may actually get this deal done and see the fight happen. Principality Stadium has a roof, so weather won't be a concern for the fight itself.
Joshua (30-4, 27 KO) has fought at the venue before, beating Carlos Takam there in 2017 and Joseph Parker in 2018. He's 3-0 in Cardiff as a pro, having also defeated Dorian Darch at Cardiff International Arena in 2014. Fury (36-2-1, 25 KO) has never fought in Cardiff, but has stated repeatedly during the drama around this fight that he was willing to go anywhere.

Xavier Worthy is expected to be one of Patrick Mahomes' favorite targets in 2026, but his status for the Kansas City Chiefs' home opener was called into question when he appeared on the team's initial injury report for Week 1.
Is Worthy expected to be available for the Chiefs' September 14 matchup against the Denver Broncos on 'Monday Night Football'?
Here's the latest on Worthy's status before Kansas City's primetime tilt with the Broncos:
Worthy is dealing with a shoulder injury, but it didn't affect his ability to fully participate in the Chiefs' practice session on September 10.
Fans shouldn't expect Worthy to miss any time due to his shoulder injury, unless something goes seriously sideways for the veteran receiver in the days before Kansas City's matchup against the Broncos.

A Wyoming football player appears to have pushed at least one fan during a field storming at Canvas Stadium after Colorado State won the Border War on Sept. 5.
Various social media accounts posted videos showing Wyoming defensive lineman Jayden Williams pushing at least one person as CSU fans rushed the field after the Rams won to secure the Bronze Boot trophy.
Several posts on social media with videos showed Williams pushing a fan. Wyoming coach Jay Sawvel responded to the incident in his weekly press conference on Sept. 7, saying it has "been addressed."
"I've seen the Jayden video, been made aware of it. Made aware of it first, watched it. Watched it a couple different times. It's been addressed and will be addressed further in house. Obviously, we don't condone that from players to fans or anything from that standpoint. That will be something we address team wide, as well," Sawvel said, according to a report from Kaycee Clark-Mellott from KGWN TV.
"That's not the way we're going to operate," Sawvel said.

College football's year of the star quarterback got off to a roaring start.
Sure, this year's Week 1 slate wasn't exactly the strongest we've ever seen. Just one game over college football's opening weekend featured two teams ranked in the preseason AP Top 25. And it hasn't even kicked off yet. No. 9 Ole Miss plays No. 24 Louisville on Sunday.
Teams like Ohio State, Texas, and Georgia all covered massive spreads against inferior opponents. But they did that, in part, because of the stat lines their star quarterbacks put up. Just look at the performances by the quarterbacks among the nation's top teams this week.
Even though receivers like Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith and Miami's Malachi Toney had incredible games in Week 1, they have a lot of work to do to be favorites for the Heisman Trophy because of the quarterback depth at the top of college football.

September is upon us. For most fans, that means that training camp is almost underway and the season is right around the corner. For us Red Wings fans, this September begins with a bleak outlook. Training camp begins Sept. 17, the team is without a GM, and Dylan Larkin's future with the Red Wings is riddled with uncertainty.
The simple truth is we don't know Larkin's future. Reports that Dylan Larkin requested a trade out of Detroit came in early June this year to the shock of many fans. Larkin has five years remaining on his contract with a cap hit of $8.7 million AAV. This attractive contract increases Larkin's value, but as of now, no trade has been made. With the GM seat still empty, it is very unlikely he will be dealt before training camp.
No general manager means no decisions regarding hockey operations are being made. A Larkin trade or reconciliation is not going to happen until a new GM is chosen. Simon Edvinsson's contract will also remain in limbo until this happens. With less than three weeks until the beginning of training camp, the outlook for the Red Wings doesn't look great. But let us explore some positives and dampen the darkness.
Moritz Seider doesn't show any hints of slowing down, and his aspirations for becoming one of the league's best defensemen are without question. The big German led the team with a +15 plus/minus and 180 blocked shots last season.
"I want to establish myself as a guy that people are not happy to see on the ice," Seider said during the European Player Media Tour. "I think that's one of the biggest compliments you could get is that people are not happy to see you, in a good way."

Sacks are among the most detrimental occurrences to an NFL offense. From 2020-2024, a drive's odds of scoring plummeted from 41.2% to 23.3% if just one sack occurred on that drive.
Similarly, the average points per drive fell from 2.26 to just 1.03.
Thus, an offense's and quarterback's ability to avoid these sacks and mitigate the losses when they do occur can be the factor that determines wins and losses.
The 2025 Tennessee ***** ans, for instance, lost 128 expected points to sacks last season, whereas the Denver Broncos lost just 39.04.
While it is a no-brainer that offensive line play has a massive impact on how often a quarterback is pressured and, thus sacked, a quarterback's ability to avoid sacks has just as big an impact.

Now-former Jacksonville Jaguars tight end Patrick Herbert is reportedly joining his brother Justin Herbert with the LA Chargers.
During cutdown day on Sunday, the Jaguars waived Patrick. According to Mike Garafolo, he has opted to sign with the Chargers' practice squad after clearing waivers.
Garafolo adds that Patrick had multiple offers, but chose to join Justin in LA.
The Jaguars signed Patrick after the 2025 NFL draft as an undrafted free agent. He spent his rookie season on the practice squad and remained with Jacksonville throughout this offseason.
The Jaguars heavily addressed the tight end position this offseason, selecting Nate Boerkircher and Tanner Koziol in the draft. Those two, along with Brenton Strange and Quintin Morris, make up the tight end room on the 53-man roster.

Nebraska's season-opening opponent has announced its starting quarterback. The Ohio Bobcats have named Nick Poulos the starter for the Bobcats' game against the Huskers in Lincoln.
This will be Poulos' first season as the starter after spending his last two seasons as a backup. In 12 games, he has thrown for 290 yards, two touchdowns, and one interception while completing only 45.6% of his passes.
The quarterback's legs will also be a factor in Ohio's spread option offense. He has also run for 184 yards and one touchdown in his career.
Ohio is coming off a 2025 season that saw the Bobcats finish with a 9-4 record and a victory over UNLV in the Frisco Bowl. The 2026 MAC coaches preseason poll picked Ohio to finish fourth with zero votes to win the MAC Championship.
Nebraska opens the 2026 season on Saturday, Sept. 5, when the Ohio Bobcats visit Memorial Stadium. Kickoff time is set for 11 a.m. CT and can be seen on FS1.

It was a fun day out for Chelsea against Brighton today, with the Blues scoring 4 and winning the game.
There was one bleak moment, however – Moises Caicedo being subbed off 11 minutes after being subbed on for his first minutes of the season.
His minor injury is proving less minor than we had hoped. After the game, all eyes were on manager Xabi Alonso as he gave an update on the Ecuadorian.

The Green Bay Packers finished the preseason on Friday night at Lambeau Field, and now attention turns to finishing the initial 53-man roster before Sunday afternoon's cutdown. Strong performances during training camp and the preseason will create some difficult choices for Brian Gutekunst and Matt LaFleur in creating the initial roster, which is due by 5:00 p.m. CT on Sunday.
Toughest decisions awaiting the Packers on their path to 53 players:
Matt LaFleur wasn't able to confirm the injury timelines for defensive tackle Warren Brinson, receiver Savion Williams or edge rusher Collin Oliver, who were all injured within the last week and could be candidates to start the season on injured reserve. The roster math changes pretty quick if any of those three miss the start of the season. Any player placed on IR to start the season has to miss at least the first four games.
To his credit, Kyle McCord turned this into a legitimate question over three excellent preseason games. Tyrod Taylor is going to be the backup behind Jordan Love, but are the Packers willing to risk McCord to waivers? He looks like the right long-term developmental option, and teams don't like risking good quarterbacks. But keeping three quarterbacks would be a roster luxury for a team with a settled situation at the top.
J. Michael Sturdivant and Will Sheppard both made terrific final arguments on Friday night, and Isaiah Neyor was one dropped touchdown pass away from doing the same. The battle between these three has been raging all summer, and now the Packers must decide: Is there room on the roster for a seventh receiver? It's possible one of the three makes it comfortably if Savion Williams goes on IR. The Packers have all the boxes checked with their top six receivers, but Sturdivant and Sheppard can both play a role on special teams. Sturdivant might be too good to risk, especially after prioritizing him as a free agent following the draft and his 112-yard performance on Friday night.

NEW DELHI: When Ishan Kishan walks out to bat, the image that usually comes to mind is that of a left-handed batter hitting big sixes, playing brutal pull shots and putting bowlers under pressure. Kishan is known for his aggressive style in white-ball cricket. But on Tuesday, the 28-year-old made it clear that he also loves the challenge of red-ball cricket.

The East Zone captain led his team to a massive innings and 210-run win over North East Zone at the BCCI Centre of Excellence Ground 2 in Bengaluru.

"I enjoy red-ball [cricket] very much. I think people don't believe me when I say that smiles, but it's, I'm being very honest, I really do enjoy red-ball cricket," Kishan told Cricinfo.

Kishan has played 32 ODIs and 55 T20Is for India, apart from 134 IPL matches. His last of two Test appearances came in July 2023. Despite his limited opportunities in Test cricket, his love for the red-ball format remains strong.

"It's always fun to be part of it because I love that challenge when, you know, yes, it's easier to bat on flat tracks and it's fun as well, but the competition which goes around in Test match[es] is some different-level thing," he said.

The match against North East Zone was Kishan's 65th first-class appearance. His previous first-class game was against Baroda in the Ranji Trophy in November 2025. In the nine months between the two matches, Kishan played 59 games across international and domestic cricket, including the IPL.

As someone who has played plenty of white-ball cricket, he admitted that moving back to the red ball was not easy.

"Situations will get tricky," he said in Bengaluru, where the Duleep Trophy is being held. "It will not be easy for us as players to just move around from white ball to red ball, red ball to white ball; change of format, change of gameplay, but that is the fun part about this game," Kishan said.

He spoke about the pressure and challenges that players deal with away from the field.

"You need to understand, as a sportsman, life can be harsh on us. It just looks very simple, like [a] player just comes here, plays their matches, and they leave. It's not like that. They go around, they keep on thinking, there's so much going on in their head every time."

But Kishan believes players cannot keep making excuses if they want to succeed.

"If you want to make it big," Kishan said, "you want to make it count, you can't have many excuses. But at the same time, I feel you should just think about getting better and not cry about things which you cannot control."
Kishan's innings in the match lasted only four runs. He reached out for a wide ball and tried to guide it behind point before being caught behind.

The wicketkeeper-batter admitted that the shot came naturally and he immediately regretted playing it.

"I was in the middle of the shot, and I was like 'what the heck I was trying to do!' I should know this is [a] Test [first-class] match and I need to leave a few **** . So

Daniel Farke is at Elland Road. Leeds United have opened talks with the representatives of RB Leipzig striker Conrad Harder, according to Tipsbladet.
The West Yorkshire club are actively pursuing a move for the Danish forward to bolster their attacking options.
However, Leeds face competition from Serie A side Lazio, who have already submitted an official bid to bring the striker to Italy.
Lazio's proposal is based on an initial season-long loan with an option to buy, forcing RB Leipzig to weigh up how to manage the forward's immediate future.
Having been linked with a move to Chelsea earlier that summer, Harder left Sporting CP for Leipzig in September 2025 for a deal worth up to €30 million, following his double-winning season in Portugal.

Following the Jacksonville Jaguars' Week 2 preseason matchup with the Carolina Panthers, how did the members of the 2026 rookie draft class perform?
Let's take a closer look, along with where each player stands within their respective position groups.
Boerkircher did not play in this preseason game, which highlights the important role he will have right away this season. He will be the No. 2 option at tight end behind Brenton Strange, bringing a blocking-heavy presence to the position, although the Jaguars believe he can impact the passing game as well.
Regis did not play in this preseason matchup either. He is projected to be the backup nose tackle behind DaVon Hamilton. This is a role that won't always fill the stat sheet and is one that can come with a learning curve, as Liam Coen mentioned recently.
Like Boerkircher and Regis, Pregnon did not play either. He is slated to be the backup left guard and has impressed as of late.

There's little debate about who the greatest college football coach of all time is. It's none other than former Michigan State, LSU, and Alabama head coach Nick Saban, but as is often the case, failure to launch came before the rise to glory.
Not many know that Saban was once an ***** istant under former Ohio State head coach, the late, great Earle Bruce, from 1980-81. Saban started his coaching career as a graduate ***** istant for his alma mater, Kent State, in 1973 and was promoted to the linebackers coach in 1975. He also had stops as an ***** istant at Syracuse and West Virginia before Bruce hired him as a defensive backs coach in 1980. Amazingly enough, Saban was hired to replace another famous coach, Pete Carroll, on the Buckeye staff.
However, Saban's time with a scarlet and gray wardrobe was short-lived. He was fired after a 31-28 Ohio State win against Navy in the 1981 Liberty Bowl as part of a housecleaning of some of the defensive staff because of a reported disagreement in philosophy.
While appearing on the Pat McAfee Show, right out of the gate, McAfee -- with former Ohio State linebacker A.J. Hawk sitting in tow -- asked Saban if he was ever fired, and Saban was quick to point out his time in Columbus.
"Yeah, I talked to you about that. I got fired when I was a defensive backs coach at Ohio State," Saban said.

The Denver Broncos have added a new player to the roster with two preseason games left before the regular season kicks off.
After bringing former second-round pick Taylor Rapp in for a look last week, the Broncos officially signed him on Thursday, adding veteran depth to the safety position. Rapp was a free agent after spending the past three seasons with the Buffalo Bills.
Rapp could enter the season as the primary backup safety behind starters Talanoa Hufanga and Brandon Jones. Here, we'll get Broncos fans a little bit more familiar with the team's newest addition.
Rapp put together a solid college career at the University of Washington. He was a starter as a freshman and won the Pac-12 Freshman of the Year Award in 2016. He was named to the first-team All-Pac-12 team in 2017 and 2018. This put Rapp on the map as a legitimate NFL prospect.
He decided to forego his senior season and entered the draft following his junior year.

Jacksonville Jaguars' running back Bhayshul Tuten was one of the standout performers in the team's joint practice with the Carolina Panthers on Wednesday.
John Shipley of Jaguars on SI called this the "best practice" that Tuten has ever had with the Jaguars.
Up to this point, Shipley noted that Tuten had been solid throughout training camp. The difference, however, on Wednesday, Tuten flashed more of his playmaking potential.
Coming out of Virginia Tech in 2025, Tuten brought speed to the Jaguars' backfield and an impressive ability to make defenders miss. That ability to create, turning no gains into modest gains and modest gains into chunk runs, is what differentiates productive running backs from the rest.
"Tuten genuinely had some of the best moves I have seen him make as a Jaguar during Wednesday's practice," Shipley wrote, "including a sick jump cut in the middle of the field that left one Panthers defender doing the splits."

While it wasn't a storybook ending, it was still an "incredible summer" for the Tupelo 49ers.
For just the third time ever, Tupelo reached the American Legion World Series. They rolled into Shelby, North Carolina, on a hot streak and kept it going in pool play with a 3-0 mark. This had all the signs of a team that could win it all after coming up short in 2011 and 2021.
That dream ended Monday, when Portland (Ore.) beat the 49ers 3-1 in the semifinals. It was just Tupelo's second loss in its last 22 games.
"it was an incredible summer," fourth-year head coach Russell Bunch said. "These guys have really grown together, and it's been a real good experience for everybody. I'm just really proud for them. I hate it shook out like it did and we weren't able to win the whole thing."
There were a lot of memorable moments along the way, though. After winning the state tournament, the Niners left town Aug. 5 and stayed gone for nearly two weeks. They rolled through the Mid-South Regional, putting on one offensive show after another and batting .398 over five games. Regional MVP Jonas Coleman batted .667 with six RBIs over that span.

Heat 'desperate' to sign $298M generational shooter, ex-Warriors future Hall of Famer, 5x All-Star originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Miami Heat have had a disappointing offseason, to say the least, even after adding a player like Giannis Antetokounmpo in a blockbuster deal. The free-agency portion of the summer, however, has gone about as poorly as it possibly could have.
After missing out on several targets, Miami is now heavily interested in Klay Thompson. The Heat have made it clear that bringing in the four-time NBA champion is a major priority.
"If the Mavericks don't find a trade for Klay Thompson, his representation will likely request a buyout. There appears to be mutual interest between the Heat and Thompson, who could maximize his shooting alongside Giannis Antetokounmpo, Bam Adebayo, plus potentially LeBron James," NBA reporter Evan Sidery wrote.
As of now, Thompson is believed to be interested in two potential destinations: the Los Angeles Lakers and Miami. Both teams could be attractive options for the veteran as he considers his next destination.

Despite a rough latter half of the game, the Tigers beat the Pirates 8-5.
After limping their way through a no-good-very-bad weekend series against the White Sox, the Tigers were hoping for a better result as they headed to Pittsburgh. The home of a bunch of yellow bridges, Primanti Brothers sandwiches, and the best view in baseball, the Tigers would have to best their NL rivals and they picked a good time to do it with Paul Skenes slumping terribly and the Pirates, but the Pirates actually have a nearly identical record to the Tigers at the moment, so truly no one knows how this road trip is going to pan out. The Tigers had Framber Valdez on the mound, up against Carmen Mlodzinski for the Pirates.
Gleyber Torres took a leadoff walk in the first to start the game. With two outs, Colt Keith singled, then Zach McKinstry singled to bring Torres home. A Hao-Yu Lee single then brought Keith in and the Tigers were up 2-0 at the turnover of the first.
Valdez made short work of the Pirates in the home half, getting them out in order.
In the second, with two outs, Torres singled. Kevin McGonigle then homered, quickly doubling the Tigers' run count. Dillon Dingler singled, but the Tigers weren't able to bring in any additional runs.

Manchester City fell to a 3-0 defeat to ******* nal today in the FA Community Shield at the Principality Stadium. Mikel Arteta's side was far too polished for Enzo Maresca's side and they thoroughly deserved their convincing victory. Coming out of the match, it is clear that it will take time for Enzo Maresca's side and system to come together. Patience is needed while Maresca puts his City side together which was clear to see throughout today's match against ******* nal.
Manchester City captain Ruben Dias spoke after his team's disappointing defeat at the hands of ******* nal. Dias acknowledged that City are beginning a new era, and that it may not be perfect at the beginning. He explained following Manchester City's defeat: "It's part of any transition for things to not be so perfect at the beginning. You need to push through, keep on working and communicate to make things work between us."
"I feel like we're in a very good way. We need to keep working. There will be a lot of challenges along the way. Stay positive, look forward. We have our first Premier League game very soon and we're looking forward to it."
The ******* sment of Ruben Dias is on the money. Manchester City are in the process of undergoing a significant overhaul. Enzo Maresca has replaced Pep Guardiola in the dugout. Bernardo Silva, John Stones and Nathan Ake have all left the club. Rodri is also set to move to Barcelona.
Those departures, coupled with Guardiola's have created a leadership void at City, one that will take time to be filled. Due to this, moments like today are likely to occur for Enzo Maresca's side. The hope is that they aren't as severe as today's defeat. But growing pains are to be expected to begin the Enzo Maresca era at Manchester City.
