Texas A&M took care of business in Week 7, earning its second shutout win of the season after defeating The Citadel 41-0 behind 264 rushing yards and three touchdowns from sophomore RB Jamarion Morrow. With freshman back KJ Edwards adding 116 rushing yards, the Aggie offense needs to keep a "ground and pound" approach, especially if redshirt junior quarterback Marcel Reed remains the starter.
On defense, Texas A&M didn't have to do much, as the Bulldogs barely attempted to throw the ball, running 47 times for 140 yards, resulting in a one-dimensional attack that didn't require defensive coordinator Lyle Hemphill to scheme up pressure, just needing to stop the run and tackle in ******* e, which was accomplished.
The SEC experienced its most chaotic week in what feels like a decade-plus, as No. 1 Georgia, No. 7 Texas, and Texas A&M's next opponent, Alabama, lost at home and on the road, resulting in a seismic shift in the US LBM Coaches Poll and AP Top 25.
As I stated above, Texas A&M will head to Tuscaloosa for the first time since the 2022 season to face Alabama, and after an impressive start to the year against bad defenses, sophomore quarterback Keelon Russell has passed for just 185 yards against Georgia (loss) and 147 yards and an interception during Saturday's loss at Tennessee.
Still, expectations are that the former five-star prospect will rebound at home against Texas A&M's respectable but beatable defense, especially given the Aggies' pass-rush issues. The Aggies enter the week as 15.5-point underdogs, and ESPN FPI gives Texas A&M a 16.5% chance to defeat Alabama (83.5%).

Jersey Bulls extended their unbeaten Isthmian League run to 29 matches as they cruised to a 5-1 win over a Raynes Park Vale side who began the day in third place.
Bulls, who are second in Isthmian League South Central, have not lost a regular-season game in the league since 30 December 2025.
Jamie Watling gave the islanders an 11th-minute lead before winger Sammy Henia-Kamau blasted in his second in three games midway through the first half.
The visitors hit the Jersey bar five minutes before half-time, but Toby Ritzema broke from just outside the penalty area and raced the length of the field before teeing up top scorer Lorne Bickley for a tap-in as Bulls went in 3-0 up at the break.
James Sunley headed in a 51st-minute fourth goal and Jersey youngster Darryl Mvalo scored his first Bulls league goal 11 minutes later to wrap up a stellar performance before Shamal Edwards pulled one back for Raynes Park.

With eight different teams the winners over the past eight seasons, it is hard to predict who takes home the NBA's Larry O'Brien Trophy in June.
If there is to be a ninth different name in as many seasons, you might look to San Antonio Spurs, with Victor Wembanyama leading the team to the Finals last season before coming unstuck against the New York Knicks.
Maybe the Philadelphia 76ers off-season moves to acquire Jaylen Brown and sign the NBA's all-time leading scorer LeBron James is an attractive pick, or perhaps the Cleveland Cavaliers.
As the season tips off, the first British-born coach in the NBA, Tim Lewis will be hoping he can ******* ist Anthony Edwards and the Minnesota Timberwolves to their first NBA ******* le.
Lewis has been something of a journeyman in basketball.

Three final thoughts from New Mexico's 21-10 comeback win Saturday at Hawaii:
1. Uncomfortable as it was, that might've been what the Lobos needed
All teams face adversity at some point, in some way. Sometimes it's self-inflicted. Sometimes it's due to circumstances out of their control.
In UNM's case, it was all of the above — and then some — against Hawaii.
To the latter category, the Lobos missed a pair of defensive starters in linebacker Jaxton Eck (shoulder) and cornerback Frankie Edwards III (concussion). Then, in the second quarter, backup quarterback James Laubstein came in for one snap, picked up 12 yards on a designed run up the middle and went down with an undisclosed injury.

The Duke Of Kent is mourning a tragic personal loss ahead of his birthday.
The late Queen's cousin Prince Edward, who turns 91 on Friday, is grieving the loss of Nicholas Turnbull, who died on 16 September aged 63.
He had been appointed a Lieutenant of the Royal Victorian Order by King Charles just two days earlier.
Nicholas started working for the Duke in 2019, according to reports, and joined him in the Royal Box at Wimbledon in July.

Cher is still at her wit's end over wayward son Elijah Blue Allman and a source says she's barely communicating with anyone right now, with loved ones led by boyfriend Alex "AE" Edwards all struggling to get through, let alone lift her shattered spirits.
"This battle with Elijah is sucking the life out of her," reveals the source. "She's fighting so hard to save him and there's just no end in sight, especially now that her daughter-in-law is back in the picture and fighting to get herself named as his guardian."
As Globe previously reported, the "Believe" singer, 80, is attempting to establish a conservatorship over her son's estate following his psychiatric hospitalization. However, Allman's wife, Marieangela King not only opposed the petition but also argued that if the court should decide a conservator is necessary that she be the one appointed.
"Cher doesn't trust Marieangela as far as she can throw her. She says all she does is enable Elijah and use him for his money," snipes the source. "She's ***** -bent on stopping her, but it's taking a huge toll, especially because there's no end in sight."

He was the sole holdout on a 12-person jury who otherwise voted to acquit Lindsay Clancy of murdering her three children — frustrating the defense and causing a mistrial.
After seven days of deliberations, and with specific instructions from Judge William Sullivan to follow the letter of the law on reasonable doubt, the jury said it still had one holdout who refused to budge. A mistrial was declared on Sept. 4.
Now, the lone juror, named Michael Desronvil, has come forward to share his side of the story, saying that he "didn't have any doubts" that Clancy was criminally responsible for the killings.
In a statement shared with Yahoo on Sept. 18 by his attorney Edward Andrew Paltzik, Desronvil said: "I didn't have any doubts. As I tried to explain different possible theories during deliberation, I kept getting cut off as if I had doubts based on the evidence presented.
"Based on all the physical evidence, key witnesses, and what the prosecution presented, I thought it was enough proof that she (Clancy) knew exactly what she was doing and planned."

Dick's Sporting Goods has been one of the big success stories in the brick-and-mortar retail ***** e.
At a time when many rivals have been shrinking their physical store counts, the sporting goods giant has leaned into stores, creating new experiential concepts and generally rethinking its retail strategy.
The chain has selectively built House of Sport locations that offer running tracks, batting cages, golf simulators, and other interactive options.
"House of Sport locations now seeing 5-6 times the number of visits per location compared to the rest of the chain. For reference, the average ***** 's Sporting Goods store is roughly 50K square feet square feet compared to 100K-120K square feet for House of Sport, indicating that House of Sport is also outperforming on a visit per square foot basis," according to 2024 data from Placer.ai.
That's a win, and the overall company delivered a nearly 5% comparable store sales gain in the second quarter. Chairman Edward Stack celebrated that success during the chain's second-quarter earnings call.

Former Indiana State Sycamore Johnathan Edwards was waived Monday by the Indianapolis Colts.
The move followed the Colts' 41-23 loss at home to Baltimore in Sunday's season opener. Edwards didn't play against the Ravens, and was among six Colts players declared inactive for Week 1. Indianapolis promoted Kenneth Harris from the practice squad prior to the game, with Harris then occupying Edwards' special teams roles.
The 6-foot-1, 201-pound Edwards was originally signed by the Colts as an undrafted free agent May 9, 2025.
As a rookie, Edwards played in 14 games (with five starts) and registered 24 tackles (18 solo), three passes defensed and two special teams stops.
Collegiately, Edwards appeared in 45 career games at Tulane (2024) and Indiana State (2021-23) and recorded 124 tackles (86 solo), 1.5 tackles for loss, 22 passes defensed and one forced fumble.

The Indianapolis Colts have waived cornerback Johnathan Edwards, the team announced on Monday.
Edwards was inactive during Sunday's Week 1 game against Baltimore.
The Colts signed Edwards as a UDFA after the 2025 NFL draft. He would make the Colts' 53-man roster as a rookie and appeared in 14 games, which included five starts.
Edwards flashed his upside and potential here and there, but he was also quite inconsistent as well. During his rookie season, Edwards allowed 17 completions on 27 targets, giving up almost 15 yards per catch.
In the preseason this summer, things didn't get much better. Edwards allowed a completion rate of 60% on 10 targets, while surrendering a hefty 19.3 yards per catch, with only one pass breakup over two games.

HBCU coach has $1 million hot take on money games appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Tennessee State head coach Reggie Barlow stood in solidarity with Edward Waters' president, Dr. A. Zachary Faison, after his comments about money games. Faison's comments came after Edward Waters played Jackson State, and he believes that the team did not get a fair shake in the deal he made years ago.
"Going forward, Edward Waters University will not schedule Division I opposition in football except on terms this institution sets and that materially and substantially advance our program goals," he said in the post. "I want you and our supporters to understand exactly why. The economics do not work. We were paid a $65,000 guarantee, which covered none of our costs. Travel and related expenses ran roughly $30,000 to $35,000, so we cleared about $30,000. That does not begin to justify what such a game asks of a team, a coaching staff, and a program."
Barlow, whose team recently played the University of Georgia in Week 1, expressed solidarity with Faison on Monday's OVC-Big South coaches call. He started by acknowledging that guarantee games between HBCUs (and FCS schools generally) and Power Conference opponents are common practice.

EAST LANSING, Mich. (AP) — Cam Edwards rushed for 152 yards and two touchdowns and Alessio Milivojevic tossed two touchdown passes Saturday to help Michigan State to a 35-7 victory over Eastern Michigan.
The Spartans (2-0) broke away from a close game at the start of the third quarter with two quick touchdowns. Edwards ran for 2 yards on the first score and Milivojevic threw a 38-yard pass to Charles Taplin to put Michigan State up 28-7. Jazium Patterson also added 7-yard score midway through the fourth quarter.
Milivojevic completed 12 of 20 passes for 170 yards as the Spartans outgained the Eagles (1-2) 472-219.
Michigan State took a 14-7 halftime lead on Milivojevic's 18-yard touchdown pass to Fredrick Moore and Edwards' 1-yard run.
The Spartans led 14-0 after Edwards scored with 8:45 left in the second quarter, but Eastern Michigan responded with a 78-yard drive. Noah Kim scored on a 4-yard run with 1:50 remaining. The Eagles (1-2) were able to move the ball throughout the half but struggled to convert drives.

CHAPEL HILL — Billy Edwards Jr. figured his day was done, but UNC football's starting quarterback couldn't sit still during a weather delay in an eventual 35-3 win vs. ETSU.
The Tar Heels (2-0) and Buccaneers (1-1) had to wait for an hour and 19 minutes before the start of the fourth quarter because of multiple lightning strikes near Kenan Stadium.
"It was tough," said Edwards, who completed 15-of-20 passes for 244 yards and two touchdowns before exiting the game with UNC up 35-0 late in the third quarter.
"I came into the weight room, and we were all sitting in there talking. Had the iPad up and I sat there for like 8 minutes, then I stood up and was like, 'Oh my gosh.' I immediately felt the effect of having some sort of delay where I was just sitting on my ****** for 10 minutes."

The North Carolina Tar Heels completed their home opener by doing exactly what they needed to do: they easily beat an inferior opponent to improve their record to 2-0. Credit to ETSU for bring a lot of energy to the game, but ultimately they were outmatched from start to finish.
The first quarter opened up with the Tar Heels going three and out thanks to two dropped passes thrown by Billy Edwards, Jr. The Heels were quickly able to make up for it by grabbing an interception thrown by ETSU quarterback, Mason Mims, which led to UNC immediately marching down the field for a touchdown. Jelani Thurman was a bit part of the drive's success, and ultimately caught a 24-yard pass to get into the end zone.
On the Buccaneers' next drive, they were able to chip away at UNC's defense to get to mid-field, but ultimately they weren't able to do enough to finish the drive. They punted and managed to back UNC up to their own end zone, but the quarter finished with UNC moving the ball into safer territory. When the second quarter opened, the Heels proceeded to move the ball down the field, and Edwards was able to find Benjamin Hall for a 26-yard touchdown.
The Buccaneers continued to chip away at UNC's defense, but they continually shot themselves in the foot. A touchdown was negated by a holding call, there was a face mask call after that, and then when they were pushed all the way back to 3rd and 28, the Heels stood tall and were able to get the ball back. They were able to complete another touchdown drive to increase their lead to 21-0 before halftime.
The second half opened with ETSU immediately coughing up the football, which led to a touchdown scored by Demon June. The Buccaneers were without answers from there — despite continuing to gain yards, their inability to finish drives remained constant, and the Heels were able to go up 35-0 before a game delay due to lightning in the area.

CHICAGO (AP) — The Chicago Cubs reinstated right-hander Edward Cabrera from the 15-day injured list before Saturday's game against the Pittsburgh Pirates and placed righty Trent Thornton on the 15-day IL with a left ankle sprain.
Cabrera went on the injured list on Aug. 17 with a right middle finger blister — a condition that has vexed him — then made three rehab appearances with Triple-A Iowa.
The 28-year-old Cabrera, acquired from Miami in an offseason trade, is 5-5 with a 5.68 ERA in 76 innings over 15 games, all starts. Manager Craig Counsell said before Saturday's game against Pittsburgh that Cabrera would switch to the bullpen for now.
This was Cabrera's third stint on the IL this season and followed one for a left hamstring/adductor strain suffered on June 23 in New York. The righty was hurt against the Mets when he went into the splits while stretching for a throw as he covered first base, an injury that sidelined Cabrera for nearly two months.
Thornton is 5-5 with three saves and 3.35 ERA in 48 1/3 innings over 48 relief appearances.

NBA rookies can sign contracts worth millions before they receive their first regular paycheck. The number on a rookie deal may grab attention, but the timing of those payments works very differently from what many fans **** ume.
Draymond Green recently explained how NBA players receive their salaries and why rookies can face a long wait before their first check. The system also allows players to negotiate how some of that money reaches them.
Green said NBA players are normally paid twice each month, but rookies enter the league under a different timeline. Their contracts can include an advance before the regular salary schedule begins, which gives new players some access to their earnings during that gap.

"Most people are paid every 1st and the 15th all year, an NBA rookie can take an advance up to 15% of their salary once they're signed," Green said. "What you should understand about rookies is the rookies don't get their 1st paycheck till November 15th, a month and a half into the season."

Liverpool have made a lot of changes to their squad this summer.
Some players such as Harvey Elliott and Curtis Jones have been moved on, while others, such as Victor Munoz and Jeremy Jacquet have been brought in.
It's not just their playing staff what have changed either with a decent chunk of the Reds' backroom staff also being re-jigged.
Richard Hughes is now Al-Hilal's sporting director and Michael Edwards just decided to quit after Fenway Sports Group's multi-club model was thrown in the bin.

OKEECHOBEE — Undermanned while facing a larger school, the St. Edward's High School football team had just enough gas left in the tank to cross the finish line.
The Pirates enjoyed a 30-6 advantage against Okeechobee with a little more than 10 minutes remaining before the host Brahmans made a charge, scoring three touchdowns in the fourth quarter. However, the visitors were able to exhale as time expired following the home team's final trip into the end zone.
St. Edward's ended a three-game losing streak after outlasting Okeechobee 30-24 in an SSAA battle Friday night at Okeechobee High School.
"Our boys usually rise to the occasion, and they did tonight," Pirates head coach Rich Schofield said. "Hats off to Okeechobee. ... They pushed and pushed us right to the very end, but we were able to hold on. That really shows the growth we're looking for."

LAWRENCE, Kan. (AP) — Austin Simmons threw for 292 yards and three touchdowns, Robert Woodyard Jr. produced back-to-back second-half turnovers to help Missouri take control, and the No. 23 Tigers beat Kansas 38-21 on Friday night in the latest edition of the Border War.
Jamal Roberts ran for 125 yards and a touchdown, and Donovan Olugbode and Cayden Lee caught TD passes, helping the Tigers (2-0) beat their biggest rival for the fifth straight time in their first trip across the state line since Oct. 29, 2005.
It was tied 14-all early in the second half when Woodyard fell on Kansas quarterback Isaiah Marshall's fumble, and Simmons quickly found Olugbode for the go-ahead touchdown. On the Jayhawks' next offensive play, Woodyard faded into the secondary and was there to pick off Marshall's pass, setting up Xai'Shaun Edwards' touchdown run.
Marshall finished with 168 yards passing, two touchdowns and two interceptions for the Jayhawks (1-1), who haven't beaten Missouri since Nov. 29, 2008. The sophomore quarterback also carried 20 times for just 23 yards.
Kansas jumped on the Tigers early, just as it did last season in Columbia, when a series that went on hiatus after the Tigers' departure for the SEC finally resumed after more than a decade. This time around, the Jayhawks capitalized on Missouri miscues: four false start penalties in the first half alone, blown blocking ****** ignments and two blocked field-goal attempts.

Judd Nelson made a rare public appearance in West Hollywood this week, looking a lot different than he did as an '80s teen icon.
In photos shared by the Daily Mail and published on Friday, September 11, the Breakfast Club star, 66, stepped out in an eclectic layered look — camo pants, a brown shirt and a loosely ***** oned plaid overshirt in blue, red and white, all topped off with a black trench coat. He rounded out the outfit with a gray ball cap and sunglasses. But the real transformation came from his beard: long, gray and scruffy, it obscured much of his once-famous face.
David Edwards / MEGA
Nelson grinned as he geared up, strapped on a sticker-covered black helmet, hopped on his motorcycle and headed off into traffic.
The Suddenly Susan alum tends to avoid the red-carpet circuit and public events, but he's a familiar sight to Angelenos who spot him weaving through the city on two wheels. His love of motorcycles even led to a memorable mishap decades ago on his first day filming 1991's New Jack City alongside Ice-T and Chris Rock.
