Tampa Bay Rays star Junior Caminero delivered a two-run walk-off homer Friday night, beating the Houston Astros 3-1 and clinching the Rays' first postseason berth since 2023. His 40th homer ended the series opener at Tropicana Field and made Tampa Bay the first MLB team to secure a 2026 playoff spot. Afterward, theScore's Bryan Mcwilliam shared Caminero's postgame message as the All-Star third baseman made clear reaching October wasn't his final goal.
"We're going to enjoy this, we're going to have a lot of fun, we're going to enjoy the moment, but the job is not finished. We're going to win the division," Caminero said before yelling, "Tampa, this is for you."
Caminero delivered his first career MLB walk-off hit with one out in the ninth and the score tied 1-1. Jonathan Aranda doubled off the right-field wall before Jonny DeLuca replaced him as a pinch-runner. Caminero then attacked Bryan Abreu's first pitch, sending a 96.6 mph four-seam fastball 417 feet to left-center at 107.2 mph.

Maryland basketball: Buzz Williams, Terrapins land 1st 2027 recruit in exciting guard appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Maryland Terrapins are coming off their first season under new head coach Buzz Williams, a season in which they finished 12-21 overall, 4-16 in the Big Ten Conference and missed the NCAA tournament for the third time in five years. As Williams is tasked with building up his program, Maryland landed their first recruit of the class of 2027 with a commitment from point guard Payton Jones, as per Joe Tipton of On3 and Rivals.
Payton Jones' commitment gives Maryland a top-60 recruit and one of the best guard prospects in the country. The Texas native will play his senior year in high school at Dynamic Prep while joining the Terrapins for the 2027-28 season.
For Jones, his budding relationship with the Maryland coaching staff was a big reason why he made the decision to commit.

Fifteen years, hundreds of matches, goals, victories and star players. Since its opening in September 2011, the Stadium has become Juventus' home and one of the iconic venues in the club's recent history. These fifteen years can also be told through the numbers.
The Men's First Team have played 389 official matches at the Stadium, recording 282 wins, 76 draws and just 31 defeats. That's a win rate of over 72 per cent.
In these matches, Juventus have scored 778 goals, conceded 265 and kept a clean sheet on 195 occasions: practically one clean sheet every two matches.
Serie A naturally accounts for the largest share, with 287 matches, followed by the UEFA Champions League with 59, the Italian Cup with 35 and the UEFA Europa League with 8.
The first official goal was scored by Stephan Lichtsteiner against Parma on 11 September 2011. A few weeks later, on 2 October against Milan, the first brace at the Stadium was scored by Claudio Marchisio.

Arsenal laid down an early marker in the Premier League ****** le race by coming from behind to end Chelsea's promising start under Xabi Alonso and keep pace with Manchester City at the top of the table.
The Gunners' normally impenetrable defence was breached inside two minutes by the Blues, but they roared back for a 2-1 win to maintain a 100 percent start.
City were less convincing in a 1-0 victory over Coventry, but the top two from last season are already clear at the top.
Manchester United are already five points back from the leaders after they twice blew the lead to draw at Everton.
AFP Sport looks at three talking points from the Premier League weekend:

#start

It was hot on Saturday afternoon at Sanford Stadium. It was 100 degrees at the time of the opening game, the hottest season-opening game in Georgia Bulldogs history. The Georgia offense and defense were cooking as well. Georgia defeated Tennessee State 63-3. The Tigers were outmatched from the start, but Georgia took care of business and played exactly how Dawg Nation has come to expect from their back-to-back SEC champions. But, covering a spread? Georgia was a 49.5-point favorite coming into the game. Georgia took care of business covering the number and breaking a long streak. Smart and Georgia were 0-15-1 against the spread when the line was 38+ points.
Georgia scored on five of its seven first-half possessions. Gunner Stockton had a short but efficient day to start his second year as QB1 of the Dawgs. Georgia scored on all five possessions with Stockton at quarterback. The Tiger, Georgia native was nearly flawless, completing 15 of 16 passes for 202 yards and three touchdowns. Offensive coordinator Mike Bobo put Stockton in a good position with a number of easy pitch-and-catch screen plays, but also allowed him to take a few shots.
Running back Nate Frazier got the party started with a big 48-yard touchdown to kick off the scoring for the Dawgs. Like Stockton, Frazier had a very efficient and productive day. Frazier had three touchdowns on four carries and finished with 72 yards on the day. Frazier looks to lead Georgia in rushing for the third straight season this year.
One of the top plays on the day came from one of the biggest players on Georgia's roster. Elyiss Williams is a 6'7″ tight end who can run and move with grace. He caught a Stockton pass late in the first quarter and leaped over a Tiger defender to put the Dawgs up 21-0.
One of the biggest questions heading into 2026 was who was going to emerge as a top receiving threat for the Dawgs. Georgia had two receivers who also showed they are ready to step up and contribute in 2026. Tayln Taylor and Sacovie White-Helton each had three catches on Saturday. Taylor looks like he could be a big-play receiver downfield, and White-Helton looks to fill the void left by Zachariah Branch in the screen and return game.

The 2026 high school football season finally got going last week in the Lone Star State.
As usual, the state that does everything bigger did not disappoint, with Texas teams pulling off upsets but also getting upset in the first week of the season. Action in the University Interscholastic League (UIL) will only pick up in the second week of the season.
This week's action includes USA TODAY Sports Super 25 showdowns, rivalries, and just plain ole good football.

East Lansing — Michigan State could win enough games to earn a bowl bid in Pat Fitzgerald's first year at the helm. The Spartans could also finish worse than they did last season.
Heading into Friday's opener against Toledo, one thinks Michigan State's offense might be a little better with a retooled offensive line and a star running back in Cam Edwards. One thinks the defense will benefit from having Jordan Hall and Nikai Martinez running the show, and a crop of adequate starters who are healthy. However, ***** ody knows until pads start cracking, crowds start roaring and TV networks cram as many ads as they can into mandatory commercial breaks. I think even Fitzgerald is curious to see just what he has on his hands once his guys line up against somebody else.
With a roster full of transfers and a new coaching staff leading the way, what exactly Michigan State has to work with this season is unknown — especially compared to the rest of the Big Ten. And it's that comparison where things have gotten tricky for the Spartans in four straight losing seasons.
The great challenge for MSU has been to make some noise in conference play, in which it is 9-27 the past four years and went 1-8 last season. It's a bleak record for a program that once put fear into opponents who walked into Spartan Stadium and proceeded to crawl out. Fitzgerald's task is to make this program scary again. Frightening to some, that process might take some time — longer than some may be willing to wait.
Where Michigan State benefits this season is its schedule. Five of its opponents are ranked in the bottom half of USA Today's preseason Big Ten poll. Likewise, using that poll the Spartans tie for the fourth weakest schedule behind Penn State, Illinois and UCLA. That doesn't consider travel nor the usual attrition of injuries, but it does show that there are a lot of what should be winnable games.

Kalen DeBoer has Alabama football's initial plan for the return game on both punts and kickoffs.
The Crimson Tide coach said Alabama plans to run "a combination of" wide receiver Ryan Coleman-Williams, running back Trae'Shawn Brown, defensive back Dijon Lee Jr. and wide receiver Rico Scott at kickoff and punt return in 2026.
"There's some other guys in our kickoff return that are back there that can rotate in as well, but those are the guys you want to have touching the football," DeBoer said on the SEC Football Coaches Media Teleconference Wednesday, Sept. 2.
Lee had two punt returns for 32 yards in 2025, while Scott had three kickoff returns for 35 yards.
Cole Adams, who transferred to Vanderbilt, was Alabama's leading punt returner in 2025. Lotzeir Brooks was Alabama's leading kickoff returner.

Since former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Joe Milton III is now available, the Cleveland Browns might be interested in signing him. This may not be good news for Shedeur Sanders if Browns reporter Jared Mueller is to be believed.
Giants Lineman Explodes Over Shedeur Sanders' 'joke' Pro Bowl Selection (Imagn Image)
Bringing in Milton will likely mean that either Sanders, Dillon Gabriel or the rookie, Taylen Green, will have to leave, because having five quarterbacks is a non-brainer. Even four quarterbacks, which the Browns currently have on their roster, is too much.
Since Milton has experience and Green is a rookie, Sanders is the most likely player to be let go if Milton is signed as per Mueller.
"Whatever you think about Sanders' talent, last year he lost a quarterback competition to the aged Joe Flacco and the undersized Gabriel," Mueller writes. "All three played poorly in 2025. Then, this year with a new coaching staff and added talent around him, Sanders lost a quarterback competition to Deshaun Watson, who hasn't been good for half a decade and is coming off missing a year and a half of football. None of that screams that the Cleveland organization is high on Sanders."

Arsenal were never likely to have it as easy as they did in the 3-0 opening-day win over Coventry City, but they did more than enough to merit the three points here.
Shots and clear chances were at a premium - they only had two shots on target, which was two more than Villa.
Gabriel Magalhaes and Bukayo Saka had efforts off target in the first half.
They thought they were going to have a penalty when Saka was fouled by Ian Maatsen – but VAR made it a free-kick instead, which Martin Odegaard curled just wide.
The goal came when Eberechi Eze, a half-time substitute for the booked Christos Tzolis, fed Riccardo Calafiori and the left-back laid the ball on a plate for Saka to score for the third time at Villa Park in his Premier League career.

Barcelona are closing in on a move for **** nal striker Gabriel Jesus in deal worth £8.6m (10m euros).
A deal for the Brazil international is believed to be at an advanced stage and, while the finer details still require finalising, the transfer is expected to be completed before Tuesday's deadline.
Napoli had shown an interest in Jesus, but the striker is set to join last season's Spanish league champions and will travel for a medical on Monday.

TCU's post-Josh Hoover era has shaky start in loss to North Carolina, Belichick as passing game struggles originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
TCU still has plenty of work ahead in its effort to replace star quarterback Josh Hoover.
The Horned Frogs passed for just 175 yards in a 15-10 loss to North Carolina on Saturday in Dublin, Ireland.
Jaden Craig completed 20 of 32 passes for TCU, but he couldn't convert at critical times. Worse yet, the Horned Frogs were held scoreless after the first quarter, wasting a solid defensive effort. TCU held North Carolina to 322 yards and kept the Tar Heels out of the end zone after the first quarter.
Craig was under the microscope. Hoover passed for 3,472 yards with 29 touchdowns and 13 interceptions last season before transferring to Indiana, where he is considered a strong Heisman candidate for the top team in the Sporting News rankings.

Nacional-AM beat CSA-AL 3-1 at the Arena da Amazônia in the first leg of the Série D promotion play-offsCredits: Disclosure/Instagram/nacionalfc1913
Nacional-AM moved closer to promotion to Série C by beating CSA-AL 3-1 on Thursday night (27) in the first leg of the Série D promotion play-offs. At the Arena da Amazônia in Manaus, the Leão da Vila Municipal built an advantage that allows them to lose by up to one goal in the second leg of the tie.
All four goals in the match were scored in the first half. Sassá, Renanzinho and Rafa Marcos found the net for the home side, while Matheus pulled one back for the team from Alagoas.
The teams will meet again next Thursday (3) at Rei Pelé in Maceió, at 8 p.m. Brasília time. Playing at home, CSA will have the chance to overturn the defeat. If they win by two goals, the team promoted to the 2027 Série C will be decided in a penalty shootout. If they win by three goals or more, the Alagoas side will secure the spot.
The promotion play-offs offer two spots in Série C. The other tie is between Goiatuba-GO and São José-RS, who drew 0-0 in the first match. The teams from Goiás and Rio Grande do Sul will face each other again next Wednesday (2) at the Divino Garcia Rosa stadium in the city of Goiatuba, Goiás. The match will kick off at 7 p.m. Brasília time.

Day 2 of joint practices between the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Tampa Bay Buccaneers was another defensive-heavy day for Travis Hunter.
According to John Shipley of Jaguars on SI, Hunter did take a few starting reps at wide receiver during the 7-on-7 periods. Jamal St. Cyr of News4Jax posted that Hunter did have a short reception on a throw from Trevor Lawrence.
However, Hunter quickly transitioned to defense for the 11-on-11 drills, where he spent the remainder of the day.
Over the last week-plus of practices, this has been the norm for Hunter. While early on in training camp the majority of his snaps came on defense, at that time, he still saw steady opportunities at wide receiver. But as of late, it's been -- almost -- all defense for Hunter.
Reading between the lines, this potentially tells us that Hunter is in store for a heavy defensive workload in Week 1 against Cleveland. That, of course, doesn't come as a surprise, with the expectation for much of the offense being that Hunter would be a starting cornerback for Jacksonville.

DiJonai Carrington lasted just four minutes in the Chicago Sky's 87-81 loss to the Connecticut Sun on Tuesday. The veteran guard, who has been dealing with a left foot injury, had been listed as questionable before receiving clearance to play.
Carrington's brief appearance quickly caused a buzz on social media.
After a difficult stretch, Sky coach Tyler Marsh kept her on the bench to start the second quarter, with the team later announcing that she would not return because of the injury.
Marsh had already acknowledged before the game that the Sky were monitoring Carrington's foot. She was downgraded to questionable before eventually being cleared a few hours before tip-off.
Carrington entered with 4:05 left in the first quarter for Natasha Cloud, but things did not go her way. She missed a 13-footer, grabbed a rebound, committed back-to-back turnovers, and picked up a foul.

WEST LAFAYETTE — Talent has not been the issue in Purdue football's tight ends room going back several years.
Health, however, has been what's held the position back.
That was the case again last season when George Burhenn suffered a season-ending injury. Without perhaps its best offensive weapon in the passing game, Purdue managed just 13 receptions for 134 yards out of its other tight ends.
The Boilermakers already have been hit before this season kicks off. A knee injury to Central Florida transfer Kylan Fox took away what probably was Purdue's No. 2 tight end.
Who is back (2025 stats): Jon Grimmett, redshirt freshman; Jackson Berryman, sophomore; George Burhenn, junior (9 rec., 94 yards); Luca Puccinelli, sophomore (3 rec., 24 yards); Luke Shorter, redshirt freshman

Liverpool left St James' Park with a point, courtesy of a stoppage-time penalty from Dominik Szoboszlai, but ******* ody should pretend this was a polished opening-day performance. It was dramatic, it was frantic and it underlined both the strengths and flaws of Andoni Iraola's side in a 2-2 draw with Newcastle.
There was character, certainly. There was pressure, plenty of it. There was also sloppiness in key moments, especially in transition, and that remains the obvious concern after a game in which Liverpool spent long spells on top yet still needed a 99th-minute spot-kick to avoid defeat.
Iraola's verdict was direct enough. "I think because you score at the end you probably have a better taste. Before the game, we wouldn't have signed this result probably." That sums it up. Liverpool did enough to feel mildly frustrated, but not enough to complain too loudly.

Newcastle struck early through Anthony Elanga and immediately gave Liverpool the sort of problem they had expected all week, pace in open ******* e. The visitors responded after the break through Cody Gakpo, then fell behind again when Joe Willock restored the home side's lead. At that point, Liverpool were staring at an opening-weekend defeat.

Barcelona are gearing up for an important week ahead, as the club race against time to sign a new striker.
Their pursuit of top target Julian Alvarez hasn't amounted to anything, which has led the club to consider potential alternatives, in their quest to sign a new number nine this summer.
While the likes of Lautaro Martinez, Viktor Gyokeres and Luis Suarez have been linked with a move to Barcelona lately, the club are also interested in a relatively less popular Nicolo Tresoldi.

According to Gerard Romero, Barcelona have prepared a plan to make a move for Tresoldi next week, provided their pursuit of Alvarez falls through.

Roberto De Zerbi has not forgotten how rival clubs "wanted to kill" Tottenham during last season's relegation battle, but is ready to set "big ambitions" for his new-look team.
A final-day victory over Everton in May ensured Spurs' survival, but owners the Lewis family promised "actions" would follow and a huge rebuild has occurred.
Tottenham's spending will pass the £300 million ($409 million) mark when Savinho joins from Manchester City and Omar Marmoush is expected to follow, the Press **** ociation understands, but De Zerbi has laughed off criticism before Saturday's opener at Brentford.
"For me, no pressure and it's not a problem. I don't know why the people don't love if Tottenham becomes better. It's one motivation more for us. Last season, all other clubs wanted to kill us," De Zerbi said.
"If we have to push, then I will be the first to push to fix the target higher, but now is not the right moment.

The Philadelphia 76ers will have a lot of expectations placed upon them in the 2026-27 season after they swung a huge deal to acquire Jaylen Brown and then landed LeBron James in free agency. That star duo will join established stars such as Tyrese Maxey and Joel Embiid.
Embiid seems like the forgotten man at times when considering the talent around him now. Of course, that's what happens when injuries take a toll, but the big fella is still as dominant as they come when he is on the floor. The 2023 MVP winner was a huge part of the Sixers rallying from 3-1 to eliminate the Boston Celtics in Round 1 and will be a big part of any success they have in the coming season.
Hall of Famer Shaquille O'Neal has high expectations for the new-look Sixers, but for Embiid, specifically, he wants to see him wrestle the best big man ***** le away from Nikola Jokic:
Championship or bust. You got the great LeBron. You got great Embiid, who was, like three or four years ago, Charles (Barkley) and I would always say how he's the best big man. Joker has surpassed him. I will be honest, making a name for himself. My question to Joel: does he want it back? And if he does, please show me. I know LeBron wants to get one last one. Jaylen is feeling slighted. Maxey is making a name for himself, definitely the team to watch. I don't wanna hear next year--this team was put together to win a championship now. I think if they don't win a championship, as players, I think all those players will be very, very disappointed. They have all the pieces they need.
To O'Neal's point, this team still belongs to Embiid and Maxey. While Brown and James are obviously the more decorated players, it still comes down to that duo as Philadelphia pushes forward. If Embiid is really healthy, then it changes everything for the Sixers on the floor. He is still such a dominant big man who can do nearly everything on offense and be a force on the defensive end. Philadelphia's hopes hinge on Embiid's health.

WESTFIELD — Keenan Allen has always worn No. 13.
Allen made the number famous with the Chargers, wearing it in both San Diego and Los Angeles, and when he went to Chicago in 2024, the No. 13 was waiting for him.
Veteran wide receiver Laquon Treadwell, who is battling for a roster spot right now, has No. 13 in Indianapolis.
But it doesn't sound like Allen is quite ready to give up on the idea of wearing the No. 13 with the Colts.
"I just talked to Laquon about it," Allen said on Wednesday. "We're just going to play it by ear. He's a vet, too, so I definitely don't want to come in stepping on toes."

At the start of the summer, big-time decisions had to be made. The Oklahoma City Thunder faced several roster dilemmas. This was always going to be a roster-changing offseason. But by the end of their NBA playoff run, most questions had answered themselves.
One being — who should OKC prioritize to keep, Lu Dort or Isaiah Hartenstein? The Thunder didn't need to split hairs on that. The latter proved to go from a luxury to a necessity. Meanwhile, Cason Wallace was ready to take over Dort's starting gig and responsibilities.
The Thunder made their choice. They signed Hartenstein to a three-year, $75 million deal. A fresh contract ensured he'd stay in OKC. All before he even had the chance to test the open market. Meanwhile, Dort's team option was picked up. But with the caveat of him being traded to the Atlanta Hawks a couple of weeks afterward.
Hartenstein recently told German media outlet 'Basket-World News' his reaction to OKC's busy offseason. The Thunder have lost some of their depth to avoid the second apron. But they made sure to keep the seven-footer for next season and beyond. He was too important to their success over the last two years. He talked about Dort's departure after previously being tied with Shai Gilgeous-Alexander for the longest-tenured Thunder player.
"There's always a human element involved. You probably spend more time with your teammates than with your own family over the course of the season. So you do grow very close," Hartenstein said. "But at the end of the day, we all know it's a business. I think Sam Presti at least put him in a good position. There are a lot of general managers who just send players off to some other team where they have no chance of winning or performing well. So at least I know he's in a good position and can play."

HINTON, Iowa (KCAU) - The Hinton volleyball program has its sights set on reloading ahead of a year full of opportunity.
Hinton finished last season as the Class 2A runner-up with a 30-3 overall record, entering this year with a new look.
The Blackhawks graduated three depth pieces and a trio of starters, including IGHSAU All-State pick and now Creighton freshman Bailey Boeve.
Hinton returns a rising trio featuring sophomore Ellie Friesen and juniors Addison Dunkel and Raelyn Kempema as the program hopes to remain in the mix for a chance to contend this season.
"Once you all get that experience like now, then we all know what it takes to get there and I think that helps, like having us on the team and whatnot," Dunkel said.

With three weeks of training camp complete and the preseason opener in the books, the New York Giants' roster picture continues to sharpen under head coach John Harbaugh. Longer practices, increased physicality, and the first live game action have provided clearer evaluations of positional battles and special-teams contributions, prompting further adjustments from earlier projections.
This updated 53-man outlook reflects those developments while maintaining Harbaugh's emphasis on versatile players, depth, and reliable contributors across the roster. Performances in the preseason loss offered additional insight into how certain players handle game situations, influencing several close calls.
The team remains early in the evaluation process, but the current snapshot captures the strongest consensus following three weeks of camp and the first exhibition contest.
Rinse and repeat. This is not going to change unless there is an injury, and Brandon Allen did very little to state his case in Saturday's loss to the Vikings.

The Denver Broncos had ample opportunities to bring Von Miller back. They now risk facing off against him this coming season.
Miller was the No. 2 overall pick of the 2011 draft. He began his career with the Broncos and helped them win a Super Bowl. He has had a few other stops since the Broncos traded him to the Los Angeles Rams in 2021, but Miller has wanted to return to Denver for years.
With that apparently not in play, Miller is sticking in the NFC.
Miller gave the first indication of his next move, with the former Broncos pass rusher taking to social media. Miller is signing with the Dallas Cowboys in free agency.
"'Hereee Weee Gooo'" [face wearing a cowboy hat emoji] dallascowboys LFG [crazy eyes, smirking demon, and trophy emojis]," Miller captioned an edited image of himself in a Cowboys uniform on August 16, drawing attention from DNVR's Zac Stevens.

The Cleveland Browns' first preseason game is officially in the books, with head coach Todd Monken's squad dropping the game against the Chicago Bears, 34-10.
While the score tells one story, there were plenty of takeaways from the recent matchup that could shake up the 53-man roster heading into Week One. Here are the biggest winners and losers from the Browns' preseason matchup against the Bears.
The Browns' rookie wide receiver duo of KC Concepcion and Denzel Boston was on full display in Chicago this weekend.
Monken was not afraid to unleash Concepcion in his first preseason game, as the most recent first-round pick recorded three catches for 27 yards, while also picking up a 14-yard rushing touchdown. Boston did not see as much action, but still managed to finish with one catch for 15 yards to convert on third down.
While it's the first preseason game of the year, Monken's early usage of the rookie playmakers on offense should be a positive sign for fans.

Aston Villa are in negotiations with Parma over a move for ***** an goalkeeper Zion Suzuki after his proposed transfer to Paris Saint-Germain fell through.
Villa have stepped up their pursuit of the 23-year-old, who had been close to joining the European champions in a deal worth around £29 million before the move collapsed on Saturday.
PSG and Parma had reportedly reached an agreement, but the French club withdrew after a dispute over transfer commissions. Suzuki is therefore now available again, with Villa emerging as a potential destination.
Suzuki has been at Parma since moving to Italy in July 2024 and has established himself as one of the country's most highly regarded young goalkeepers. His performances have also made him a regular for ***** an.
Villa's interest comes amid continued uncertainty surrounding Emiliano Martinez. Juventus have revived their interest in the Argentina international, who is understood to have wanted a move to Turin before the World Cup.

Charles Johnson showed he has more than a few tricks up his sleeve after pulling off the rare Scottish twister submission to dispatch Eduardo Chapolin at UFC 330 on Saturday.
Originally scheduled to face Jose Ochoa until just a few days ago, Chapolin accepted the fight and nearly pulled off the upset after the cracked Johnson with a stiff shot that dropped the veteran flyweight in the second round. But Johnson showed off his signature durability as he bounced back and recovered between rounds.
In the third, Johnson looked like the fresher fighter as he started dishing out punishment until a scramble led to him taking Chapolin's back momentarily. As Chapolin tried to reverse positions, Johnson made him pay by immediately grabbing onto the Scottish twister with the tap coming just seconds later.
The official stoppage came at 1:36 in the third round.
"That's my ****** ," Johnson said about his submission finish. "I've been training diligently. We worked our ****** off. I kind of made him feel he could turn in and I had it."
