BYU football is picking the pieces up from the stunning UCF loss. That means operating without running back LJ Martin against Arizona State. But Cougar fans received an optimistic update on Martin before BYU faces in-state rival Utah.
So Martin isn't anticipated to be healthy against the Sun Devils. But college football insider Pete Nakos dropped this update that'll grab the attention of Cougar fans.
"Martin has made strong progress in the last two weeks, with sources at the time saying they were hopeful he would be good to go against the Utes, with real confidence growing since then," Nakos wrote.

It was everything the Houston Cougars envisioned when they joined the Big 12.
A ranked matchup, the program's first at TDECU Stadium since 2015. A sellout crowd of 42,544. And most importantly, a statement victory to catapult the Cougars further into the national conversation.
In front of the fourth-largest crowd in TDECU Stadium history, No. 20 Houston outlasted No. 18 Oklahoma State in an offensive shootout, earning its fourth consecutive victory and securing bowl eligibility with a 35-32 win.
"I really felt like we had a homefield advantage," Houston head coach Willie Fritz said. "They were loud and the student section I thought was outstanding. I appreciate everybody coming out and hopefully you saw what UH football is all about and also the experience here."
Houston never trailed after the first quarter, largely thanks to quarterback Conner Weigman. The rising Heisman candidate delivered arguably his finest performance in his five years of college football, bouncing back from an interception on the opening drive to throw for career-highs of 343 yards and five touchdowns. He completed 72.7 percent of attempts while consistently solving every puzzle the Oklahoma State defense threw at him.

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?

The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are 6-1 and ranked No. 4 in the AP Top 25 after losing to the BYU Cougars on the road, 28-24. This week the Irish get to stay at home and eat cheeseburgers… and we could all use the break.
It was a completely wild week around CFB.
There are 5 sets of stats that we will keep track of here on a week to week basis; Total Offense, Total Defense, Scoring Offense, Scoring Defense, and Sagarin. Here is where the Irish currently stand:
Total Offense — No. 35 / 445.1 ypg
Total Defense — No. 1 / 235 ypg

Notre Dame's 2026 college football schedule has been called many thing over the last eight months, but "tough" or anywhere near the word "hard" was certainly not among them. Still, some have mentioned that this Irish schedule could look a lot trickier as the season progresses. While they may eventually be true, it may not matter all that much (except for message boards and social media).
Notre Dame took a minute or two to get going against the Wisconsin Badgers in the season opener, but eventually the Irish whooped them 42-13. Notre Dame welcomed the Rice Owls to South Bend for the home opener, and sent them back to Texas with a 52-0 loss. Although the Irish were big favorites against Michigan State, they got their best shot — and still beat the Spartans 27-10. The Irish were once again massive favorites over a Big 10 team, and they more than covered against Purdue with a 49-10 win that was never that close. Notre Dame was better than a three touchdown favorite against North Carolina, but ran into a bit of a clunker (and rain) and beat the Tar Heels 37-26. After two weeks on the road, Notre Dame returned to South Bend and the homecooking did them well as the Irish destroyed the Stanford Cardinal 58-7. Disaster hit the Irish against BYU in a 28-24 loss, and no matter what part of the game you want to complain about (because there was quite a bit) the simplest thing to say is that Notre Dame flat out got outplayed by the Cougars. Notre Dame will now be able to chomp down some cheeseburgers during their bye week.
Notre Dame is still likely to be favored in every game this season, and they are still a popular pick to win the national championship. Their strength of schedule probably isn't going to matter much, but let's keep track of it anyway.

Bear Bachmeier's all-around performance for BYU shakes up the Heisman Watch originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Bear has re-entered the chat.
BYU quarterback Bear Bachmeier's late touchdown pass lifted the Cougars to a 28-24 victory over Notre Dame on Saturday and fueled his return to the Heisman Watch top contenders list.
Bachmeier threw a touchdown pass, ran for two scores and caught a touchdown pass in an all-around performance that shook up the Heisman race. The Cougars have climbed to No. 2 in the latest ******* ociated Press Top 25 poll.
Oregon State receiver Jesse Legree is much more familiar with catching touchdown passes than Bachmeier. The true freshman joins the top contenders list this week for the first time after gaining more than 100 yards receiving for the seventh time in as many games.

The Big 12 is suddenly the conference driving college football's playoff race originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The Big 12 came out of Saturday's chaos with something more valuable than a few headline wins: a stronger place in the national conversation.
The latest AP Top 25 includes five Big 12 teams, a season high for the conference. BYU leads the group at No. 2, followed by Texas Tech at No. 8, Utah at No. 10, Houston at No. 14 and Arizona at No. 25.
That is a substantial shift in the playoff picture. The Big 12 has not just one team positioned near the top; it has multiple programs ranked inside the top 15 and another holding a place in the poll.
BYU's rise to No. 2 is the most eye-catching part of the conference's week. It is the Cougars' highest ranking since their 1984 national championship season, giving the program a national profile it has not held in decades.

Sep. 14—PULLMAN — Shortly after Washington State wrapped up its last game, a blowout road loss to Kansas State over the weekend to drop coach Kirby Moore's team to 0-2 to open the season, Cougar quarterback Caden Pinnick was short on words.
On some of the team's biggest problems on offense, Pinnick said only, "We just lost. Next question."
On what was holding back WSU's passing offense, which produced only 65 yards, Pinnick said, "Good team. We lost."
On whether he felt like offensive coordinator Matt Miller's playcalls were putting the team in the best positions to succeed, Pinnick said, "It's not for me to say. We just gotta get better."
On Monday, Pinnick led off his news conference addressing that postgame session, which lasted less than two minutes, saying it was "not quite the response that you want."

Sep. 12—The Washington State offense couldn't get out of its own way and the Cougar defense was ultimately powerless to slow Kansas State's march as the Wildcats rolled to a 34-7 nonconference football victory Saturday at Bill Snyder Family Stadium in Manhattan, Kan.
After going 0-for-11 on third down during the Apple Cup, the Cougars' opening script was encouraging.
Quarterback Caden Pinnick rocketed the rock to junior wide receiver Branden Ganashamoorthy and sophomore running back Maxwell Woods for a pair of first downs on WSU's opening drive, but it would be for naught as Cougar kicker Jack Stevens missed his third field goal of the season — matching the total number of misses from last year.
K-State completely snuffed out the Cougs after that, forcing a turnover on downs, nine punts and a forced fumble over the remainder of the game.
The lone bright spot for Wazzu on Saturday were the heroics of WSU safety Jaylen Thomas, who registered the first two interceptions of his college career.

MCALESTER — McAlester scored two touchdowns in the final seven minutes, including the game-winner with 3:02 remaining, to rally past Ada 47-40 in a wild finish to the annual rivalry game Friday night.
The Cougars, who piled up well over 500 yards of total offense, scored with 8:23 left to take a 40-33 lead. But the Buffaloes answered with a 54-yard touchdown pass at the 7:32 mark to knot the score at 40-40.
McAlester then marched 75 yards in six plays for the winning touchdown.
Ada will enter district play at 0-3, while the Buffaloes improved to 1-2.
It was the third-highest scoring game in the long series between the two rivals.

Kansas State (1-0) takes on Washington State (0-1) in the first ever meeting between the schools. Kickoff is scheduled for 11 AM on Fort Riley Day at Bill Snyder Family Stadium and the game will be broadcast on TNT. As usual, all these details and much more can be found in Jon Morse's How To Watch post.
In the opener for both teams, Wazzu lost to Washington 24-10 in a much-too-early edition of the Apple Cup. Wazzu struggled on offense, though the score might have been closer if not for a couple of missed field goals and a couple of interceptions by transfer QB Cade Pinnick. Washington State's defense definitely had its moments, however. If you're like me, you probably missed the game in its entirety. Luckily, we have Drew Schneider on hand to break it all down.
The general gist seems to be that Wazzu may not be the best team on the Wildcats' schedule this year, but Kansas State overlooks the Cougars at its own peril. As Collin Klein himself noted, Pinnick can do some damage with his legs and K-State's defense seemed ever-so-slightly suspect against the run in the blowout win over Nicholls. There's also Wazzu's defense to consider, which managed to get a key 4th down stop on the goal line against Washington, thanks to stalwarts like Keith Brown, a linebacker who missed all of last season with injury and is now the teammate's de facto standard bearer.
I don't pay a lot of attention to fan Q&As, but there are some interesting tidbits in Kellis Robinett's weekly mailbag, including that Klein's recruiting philosophy is that every player is merely leasing a roster spot until someone beats them out of it. Competition is constant is apparently CK's mantra. See? There is only football.

This year has been tougher than most, with absolutely nothing to go off of for Week 1, but now the belief systems start to kick in. While I lean a bit too heavily on the flaky historical trends this week, I'd be doing America a disservice if I didn't at least point them out.
It's Week 2. Let's have some fun.
Results So Far: 13-12
– CFN Week 2 Expert Picks

Line: Michigan State -17.5
ATS Pick: Michigan State
– Game Prediction and Preview
Along with Michigan State being far better than an Eastern Michigan team that just lost to San Jose State and struggled against Sacramento State, there's a historical thing happening here.
Michigan State is 7-0 all-time against Eastern Michigan, and … fine. This is a goofy trend, but the Spartans really should roll in this.
The Spartans won 73-14 in 2014. 23-7 in 2012, 42-10 in 2008, 52-20 in 2006, 56-7 in 2002, 51-7 in 1999, and 47-0 in 1996. Six total wipeouts and one outlier on the 17.5 in 2012.
Line: Oregon -23.5
ATS Pick Oregon
– Game Prediction and Preview
If Oklahoma State is about to turn the machine on, fine, I'll tip my cap and move on. But I just can't get past this. It's not like 2025 North Texas, and all its star players now with Oklahoma State, did anything against the powerhouses.
The best win was against … Navy?
The Cowboys didn't look anywhere near close to being ready for primetime last week in the loss to Tulsa, and now they get an Oregon team coming off a mediocre performance against Boise State.
What happened the week after the last time Oregon had a tough fight against the Broncos? In 2024, it followed up the 37-34 win with a 49-14 domination at Oregon State.
Line: Indiana -56.5
ATS Pick Indiana
– Game Prediction and Preview
I have a personal rule to always pick the underdog that walks into a building up 50 or more against the spread. I whiffed on that last week, taking Utah Tech +51.5 against BYU – the Cougars won 63-7.
I ****** umed Miami -59.5 would stop scoring at some reasonable point against Florida A&M on Thursday night. The Hurricanes won 77-7. Indiana beat Indiana State 73-0 last season.
In the first year under Curt Cignetti, it beat Western Illinois 77-3. I'll take the chance that 56.5 might be laughably low against another FCS team if history repeats itself.

BYU coach Kalani Sitake gave a shoutout to the fans following the Cougars' season-opening 63-7 win over Utah Tech late Saturday night.
Even with BYU taking on an FCS opponent, Sitake was impressed not just with his team's play, but with the fan support in the home opener at LaVell Edwards Stadium.
He believes it set an impressive standard for players who transferred in from other schools, in their first experience playing at home in Provo.
"Really proud of the team, proud of the way the guys played, proud of the energy that we had. And just want to tell all the fans, thank you so much for your energy. They stayed here till the very end. The ROC (BYU's student section) was here the whole entire time," Sitake said.
"(That) impressed a lot of our players that came from the portal, been other places. They couldn't believe the support that the fans had for the team and the energy — made a lot of noise. And you know, we're going to need them next week (vs. Arizona). It's going to be a lot of fun, but we need them all year long."

SEATTLE — Demond Williams Jr. threw for 268 yards and a touchdown, and No. 17 Washington survived offensive struggles for a 24-10 victory over Washington State in a season-opening Apple Cup on Sunday.
Williams also scored on a 5-yard keeper in the 118th meeting of the two teams, who were once both part of the Pac-12. Washington won last year's meeting 59-24 in Pullman.
Transfer Caden Pinnick made his debut as quarterback for the Cougars, throwing for 142 yards and scoring on an 11-yard keeper in the fourth quarter.
Washington State was one of the remaining members of the Pac-12 left after realignment broke apart the conference ahead of the 2024 season. The Cougars and Oregon State helped re-build the conference, which now includes Boise State, Colorado State, Fresno State, San Diego State, Texas State and Utah State, along with non-football member Gonzaga.
The Huskies, meanwhile, bolted the Pac-12 for the Big Ten. Washington went 9-4 last season with a 38-10 win over Boise State in the LA Bowl.

The Washington Huskies entered their Sunday afternoon Apple Cup showdown against the Washington State Cougars with an intention to get off to a hot start. Washington head coach Jedd Fisch probably preached that message to his team often leading up to this matchup.
Unfortunately, the Huskies, ranked No. 17 in the ***** ociated Press' Preseason Top 25 Poll, came out flat. Washington only held a 10-0 lead at halftime and struggled to pull away from their bitter rivals until late in the fourth quarter.
As NBC televised the game nationally, Huskies fans voiced their frustration with Washington's performance.
A lot of their comments were focused on Fisch, who is on the hot seat this season. Fisch is calling the plays on offense for his team, so there's even more ***** e for him to be a target of frustration.

There was little doubt prior to kickoff that BYU's season opener against Utah Tech wasn't going to go exactly as it went. The No. 14-ranked Cougars, a seven-touchdown favorite, overwhelmed the Trailblazers in all phases of the game to win by eight touchdowns, 63-7.
Along the way, there were three key plays that set BYU on a course to quickly turn opening night into a glorified pre-game workout for next week's Big 12 opener against Arizona. Here they are:
Cannon DeVries had dreamed about just such a moment growing up in North Ogden and playing football at Weber High — he wanted to get to LaVell Edwards Stadium in Provo and return a kickoff for a touchdown.
Saturday night against Utah Tech — his moment came.
Determined for a return, DeVries fielded the second-half kickoff a couple of steps inside his own end zone. Once he reached the 7-yard line, he veered away from the right side to the left. On the way, he shook off a would-be tackler around the 15.

Arizona football is back. The Wildcats took down NAU in their week 1 matchup 35-7. The defense was stout allowing zero points from NAU's offense. Northern Arizona got seven points from a pick-six off of the Wildcats' backup quarterback. Seth Doege's offense was sharp in the first half but slowed down in the second half.
Brent Brennan's group won the program's 5th straight season opener to make it to their ranked matchup with Kalani Sitake and the BYU Cougars healthy and undefeated.
The Wildcats' Heisman hopeful Noah Fifita played lights out again in this one. Fifita was 22 for 29 passing, threw for 262 yards and two touchdowns. Fifita had his first of many lasts this week as he played in his last home opener in Tucson.
"Noah Fifita is such a good player…Nothing he does surprises us." said head coach Brent Brennan after the win in his post game press-conference.
Fifita will need to be sharp again next week against BYU but if he performs at his usual level, Heisman hopeful could turn to Heisman dark horse.

Washington and Washington State know each other as well as two teams can, but Sunday's matchup will still bring something new.
The 118th Apple Cup will mark the first time the rivals open their seasons against each other in a series that dates to 1901.
The 17th-ranked Huskies will host this year and are hoping to use the game as a springboard to further improvement after taking a big step forward in 2025. Coach Jedd Fisch's second season at the helm saw Washington win three more games than the previous campaign and will look for more this fall as quarterback Demond Williams and other key players return.
The Cougars are also coming off a winning season at 7-6 but have a new coach at the helm in former Missouri offensive coordinator Kirby Moore. He has overhauled the roster with nearly 30 incoming transfers, including new QB Caden Pinnick. The sophomore threw for 3,206 yards and 32 touchdowns last season for UC Davis.

Sep. 5—SEATTLE — Heading into Sunday's Apple Cup, Washington State and coach Kirby Moore have said all the right things, have talked about all the right game plans.
The Cougars want to keep Husky quarterback Demond Williams contained in the pocket. Their defense wants to generate pressure on him and disrupt his rhythm. While Washington State's offense wants QB Caden Pinnick to make the correct reads before the snap, and to diagnose the Huskies' defensive schemes.
The Cougars have all the right things in mind. But as Moore said about containing Williams: "It's way easier said than done."
For that reason, we're picking Washington to win the 118th Apple Cup No. 118 in relatively comfortable fashion, dispatching an upstart WSU club with a first-year head coach in Moore. The Huskies are just too talented, too deep, and too savvy to lose an Apple Cup at Husky Stadium for the first time since 2021.
For WSU, one of the bigger challenges will involve running the ball against UW's defense, which is one way the Cougars could ease Pinnick into the game. The only problem for WSU is that many of the offensive linemen at the center of the operation, like center Noah Dunham and guards Kyle Martin and Nick Bakken, will be playing some of their first snaps of college football.

No. 23 Houston built a big lead and held off a late rally to open the 2026 season with a 33-20 win over Oregon State on Saturday at TDECU Stadium.
Quarterback Conner Weigman threw for 305 yards, including a 31-yard touchdown to Amare Thomas on the Cougars' opening possession, and scored a late touchdown as the Cougars won their fifth opener in the last seven years.
Oregon State, a nearly three-touchdown underdog, led 7-6 on a 3-yard Braden Atkinson. The Cougars scored 20 unanswered points on touchdown runs of 51 and 1 yards by Re'Shaun Sanford II and Makhi Hughes, respectively, and 42- and 32-yard field goals by Jonathan Dimas, the first of his career.

After Hughes' touchdown put the Cougars ahead 26-7 with 6 ½ minutes left in the third quarter, Oregon State scored on two straight drives - a 7-yard touchdown catch by Jess Legree and 4-yard run by A.J. Newberry. The last touchdown was set up by Sailasa Vadrawale III near the goal line early in the fourth quarter.

Bloomington South's volleyball team has options.
Which means the Panthers' opponents do, too, when it comes to aligning their defense.
On Thursday, Sept. 3, South's best choice was to set senior middle Quinn Reynolds, who had 16 kills, everything from dunks and tips high above the crowd at the net to lasers from the back row, as the undefeated Panthers swept rival North, 25-19, 25-21, 25-19 at the Cougar Den.

"Our team, you can put the ball anywhere on the floor and trust that it's being taken care of," South coach Emma Abplanalp said. "She's a great leader on this team, they're all so supportive. They all want to win. They all want to be the best.

Aug. 31—PULLMAN — Ahead of the first season-opening Apple Cup, set for Sunday afternoon in Seattle, Washington State is electing not to release a depth chart.
Cougar coach Kirby Moore indicated as much on Monday, saying that heading into the games to follow the rest of the season, the team expects to post two-deeps.
So in the meantime, The Spokesman-Review is publishing a projection of WSU's two-deep, which is based on observations from the team's 15 fall camp practices and interviews with coaches and players this August. The program has only confirmed one player as a starter, quarterback Caden Pinnick.
First, a couple housekeeping notes...
—The only players expected to be sidelined by injuries for Sunday's game are tight ends Trey Leckner and Hudson Cedarland, Moore said. Leckner is set to miss the first half of the season, while Cedarland will be out "an extended period of time," according to Moore.

Dave Hanna was there when it all began.
He'd just started his senior year at BYU in the fall of 1972, helping defray the costs of higher education by working for Dave Schultess in the sports information office, when an unproven ***** istant named LaVell Edwards took over as the Cougars' head football coach.
Up close and personal, Dave watched Edwards' inaugural season and then, after being accepted into graduate school, the next two seasons as well. His job with the SID department was to go to the BYU locker room after games to gather quotes for the media.
Thus he was there in the locker room at the old Cougar Stadium (capacity 30,000) on Nov. 9, 1974, after BYU defeated 16th-ranked Arizona State 21-18 — one of the biggest wins, if not the biggest, to that point in the Cougars' rather meager football history.
He was gathering quotes when LaVell walked in and started addressing the players … and then stopped. The coach was unable to continue because emotion overtook him. All he could do as he struggled without success to gain composure was give the team a thumbs-up and stand down.

If kicker Ethan Sanchez plays college football this season, it won't be with the University of Houston.
Sanchez, whose 21 field goals last season were the second-most in school history, will not be pursued by the Cougars for a possible return, a person with knowledge of the situation told the Houston Chronicle on Friday.
Sanchez was among 41 plaintiffs to be granted an extra year of eligibility Thursday when a Dallas judge issued a temporary restraining order that prohibits the NCAA, SEC and its commissioner Greg Sankey from stopping a group of athletes from returning to college for a fifth season.
