NORMAN — Oklahoma received some positive injury news Monday.
During an appearance on his coach's show, Brent Venables said linebacker Kip Lewis, who exited Saturday's loss to Michigan with an apparent knee injury, might be back sooner rather than later.
"I think we got maybe some good news and he'll be back sooner than maybe we initially thought," Venables said.
Lewis, one of the Sooners' captains and their leading tackler a season ago, was missed in the second half against the Wolverines.
It's expected Cole Sullivan, who has mostly been playing Venables' hybrid cheetah position, is expected to start in Lewis' place if he's not able to play against New Mexico. Third-year linebacker James Nesta replaced Lewis and held his own.

Luke Kuechly spent his playing career making sure he never had to guess where the ball was going. But these days, the harder question is guessing which network has him next.
CBS announced Monday that the newly enshrined Pro Football Hall of Famer will make his debut as a CBS game ****** yst in Week 3, calling Raiders-Saints from New Orleans alongside play-by-play voice Chris Lewis and sideline reporter Amanda Balionis.
A radio ****** yst for the Carolina Panthers, Kuechly's stock skyrocketed in recent months as he became Netflix's top NFL game ****** yst after auditioning with Noah Eagle at NBC's Stamford, Connecticut studios in early July. Eagle said Kuechly's football knowledge was never in question — that much was obvious from his playing days — but what stood out during their audition, a mock call of a game from the previous season, was how quickly he got comfortable in the chair given he'd never done the job before. Eagle told Sports Media Watch that it felt like Kuechly "could see things happening before they happen."
He justified that faith in his Week 1 debut, as Awful Announcing's Megan Armstrong wrote that he dazzled alongside Eagle in Melbourne, with the reaction across sports media running overwhelmingly positive.
The streamer is expanding its NFL package from two games to five this year, including the opening-week matchup in Australia, a Thanksgiving Eve game, and a Saturday night game in Week 18, and Kuechly is expected to anchor most of that slate. Between Netflix and his new CBS ****** ignments, he's on pace to call somewhere in the range of eight to 10 games as a game ****** yst this season, on top of his usual Sunday work as a Panthers radio ****** yst. Kuechly is also replacing Bill Belichick opposite Peyton Manning on The Breakdown.

Long-running speculation over the future of Hain Celestial's business in Europe has finally come to a head with the disposal to a private-equity investor.
Nasdaq-listed Hain Celestial said in a statement today (14 September) it has agreed the sale of its "international" operations to Aurelius for $323m in cash.
The divestment follows a review of Hain Celestial's portfolio instigated by president and CEO Alison Lewis last year, which already resulted in the sale of its North American snacks business in 2026 to Canada's Snackruptors for $115m in cash.
That disposal included the brands Garden Veggie Snacks, Terra chips and Garden of Eatin'.
Ella's Kitchen baby and kids foods, the Joya and Natumi plant-based beverage lines and Hartley's jelly are joining Aurelius.

The inaugural Spanish Grand Prix at the Madring has drawn heavy criticism from F1 fans and drivers over the limited overtaking opportunities on the narrow circuit. Its layout reportedly made the race a dull spectacle for many, and now even Spain's Minister of Transport and Sustainable Mobility, Óscar Puente, has weighed in. Puente didn't hold back, describing the event as "an absolute dud."
Puente has kept his criticism constructive, comparing the Spanish GP with the Monaco GP, which is also known for offering limited overtaking opportunities. Monaco's narrow city streets have become increasingly challenging as F1 cars have grown larger over the decades, while significantly widening the roads is simply not a realistic option.
Despite Monaco's reputation for limited overtaking, this year's race featured 10 overtakes during the entire race, according to a social media post from Autosport. By comparison, the Madrid race last weekend saw just four overtakes.

PASADENA -- San Diego State's defense did practically everything they could to keep the Aztecs in the game against UCLA. They just needed the offense to come along for the ride.
Despite the defense largely holding UCLA's offense in check, SDSU's offense managed just 189 yards and one touchdown — coming effectively in garbage time — in a 28-10 loss to the Bruins at the Rose Bowl on Saturday.
"Inefficiency on offense led to a bunch of snaps for the defense," head coach Sean Lewis said. "Starting three and out there constantly, we were behind in the field position game. So I think just the culmination of snaps, the inefficiency on offense. It starts with the play calling, with myself, the leadership throughout the course of the week, so that we can have more success and flip the field."
Nowhere was SDSU's offensive struggle more apparent than in the passing game. The Aztecs completed just six passes for 45 yards, and several deep shots by quarterback Jayden Denegal were wildly off-target.
"[We] felt like we had good matchups on the edge," Lewis said. "There was a lot of single-high coverage. Again, those are good, calculated shots downrange. We got ***** on hands that we didn't catch. We had other guys wide open that we missed."

Colorado head coach Deion Sanders was not in the mood to celebrate a 31-point victory Saturday.
The Buffaloes moved to 2-0 with a 52-21 win over Weber State at Folsom Field. Still, Sanders arrived in the media room focused on the points Colorado left on the field, 13 penalties, special teams mistakes and an offensive performance he felt had another level available.
Colorado quarterback Julian Lewis threw for 366 yards and four touchdowns while accounting for five total scores, and running back Micah Welch became the first Buff to rush for 100 yards in a game since 2022. Sanders praised the playmakers who contributed, though the consistent message after the rout remained the same: make the Buffaloes a team capable of winning and dominating.
Here is everything Sanders said following Colorado football's win over Weber State.
"We only scored 52 points," Sanders said. "It should've been a lot more. We're not satisfied with the outcome."

The Oklahoma Sooners dropped to 1-1 in the 2026 season after a 17-10 loss on the road against the Michigan Wolverines. OU failed their first test of the season and played poor, sloppy football in a bad loss.
Expectations were sky-high entering the season, but just two games into Year 5 under head coach Brent Venables, the Sooners saw their season crumble in Ann Arbor. All of the offseason talk and hype that surrounded Oklahoma fell flat in the Big House.
Firstly, though the defense was much better in the second half, the Sooners did not look like a Venables-led defense in the first half. After riding the defense to 10 wins and a spot in the College Football Playoff last season, this year's defense isn't nearly as good, at least not yet. In addition to a loss on their record, the OU defense will also be without their heart and soul for a large chunk of time, as linebacker Kip Lewis was injured in the loss.
Despite only giving up 17 total points, Oklahoma's defense tackled poorly, didn't force any turnovers, and was outflanked often in the first half. The second half was far better on that side of the ball, but the Sooners still lost because of their anemic offense.
All offseason, the Sooners talked about being better at running the ball and more committed to it. That lasted one game, as Oklahoma actually looked worse on offense on Saturday than they did last year. They abandoned the running backs in the running game, and the multiple-look structure-wise largely went out the window.

The Colorado Buffaloes entered Saturday needing a more confident passing game after a tight opening win at Georgia Tech, and Julian Lewis supplied it before Weber State even had time to settle into the afternoon at Folsom Field.
On Colorado's first offensive snap, Lewis hit DeAndre Moore Jr. for a 66-yard touchdown. A few minutes later, Lewis found Joseph Williams for a 63-yard score, and Colorado had already put Weber State in a position where it needed to chase the game.
From my seat, the biggest development was how quickly Lewis played. The Buffs came out attacking downfield, trusting Lewis to make the reads and allowing the receivers to use their speed against Weber State's coverage.
Colorado's 52-21 win moved the Buffs to 2-0 for the first time since 2023. Lewis completed 17 of 23 passes for a career-high 366 yards, four touchdown passes and no interceptions. He added a 3-yard rushing touchdown before halftime, accounting for five scores before leaving the game with 5:50 remaining in the third quarter.
The 52-point afternoon came with a few defensive concerns, particularly in the secondary, but Colorado showed far more life offensively than it did a week ago. Lewis played like a quarterback who could give this team an explosive passing game, while Micah Welch ended one of the program's longest rushing droughts.

The Oklahoma Sooners lost one of their very best players to injury on Saturday in their 17-10 loss against the Michigan Wolverines. In the game's first quarter, star fifth-year linebacker Kip Lewis injured his right knee, initially returning to the game with a brace on. However, he quickly exited again, and was in the sideline in street clothes for the remainder of the contest.
After the game, head coach Brent Venables gave a quick update on Lewis' status, which wasn't a positive one for the Sooners.
"He'll miss some time," Venables said.
OU struggled mightily on defense in the first half, at least relative to their standards in Norman. However, the second half was better. The Sooners gave up just seven points when they were backed up following an interception from quarterback John Mateer.

Arsenal made it four wins from four in the Premier League with a hard-fought 2-0 win over Sunderland at the Stadium of Light. The Black Cats played a gritty, physical game, but the Gunners gave as good as they got, and battled to the win. With a massive ***** ist from David Raya saving a, uh, generously awarded penalty that would have made it 1-0 for the bad guys. Minutes later, Bruno Guimaraes put one top bins. Raya made another brilliant save later in the half. Deep in added time, Bruno put Bukayo Saka in on goal, earning a penalty and second yellow to Reinildo. Penalty converted. Game over.
The Sunderland crowd greeted Bruno with a chorus of boos when he replaced Myles Lewis-Skelly at halftime. They take their rivalry with Newcastle seriously. Unfortunately, it was very much a "keep booing, it only makes me stronger" moment. You could see from the little smile on Bruno's face that he was loving it and using it to fuel him. His "I can't hear you" celebration to the crowd after he'd put one on postage stamp was absolute perfection.
Great call from Mikel Arteta to pull Myles Lewis-Skelly at the break. Everything was off from him — poor touches, cheap fouls — it simply wasn't his night. The manager also had to swap Jurrien Timber for Ben White, who appeared to have tweaked his groin. Because when ***** nal get one right back healthy, the other gets injured. That's how it works. Timber was excellent, by the way.
The ***** nal subs that came on later in the second half, Eze, Merino, and Zubimendi, were mediocre to poor. The depth is tremendous but Mikel Arteta has his work cut out for him to keep everyone sharp so that when they are called into action they don't, say, give the ball away the only two times they get on it like Merino did today.
The Gunners could have and should have been ahead at halftime, but once again, they were profligate with scoring chances. Bukayo Saka was caught in two minds on a leaping volley and only managed glancing contact. Kai Havertz shot over the bar from in close. The German striker also forced a smart save with a brilliant control, turn, and volley move. Saka also flubbed two chances in the second half — he picked the wrong pass on a 4-on-2 break and he shot too close to the keeper. The side could do with a bit better finishing, but if you believe (as I generally do) that finishing ebbs and flows, as long as they keep generated the volume of chances, someone is in for a real hiding.

"Jersey Shore" star Angelina Pivarnick is being slammed online after she appeared to shade Chris "CT" Tamburello and Phaedra Parks' new romance. On Instagram, Pivarnick didn't hold back when talking about CT's romantic relationship with the "Real Housewives of Atlanta" star. In her comment, the MTV veteran even seemed to imply that Tamburello might've done her wrong.
According to Duexmoi, Pivarnick, who appeared in the first season of "Jersey Shore," commented on a post of Parks and Tamburello posing together at the Creative Emmys earlier this month.
In addition to putting several laughing-face emojis, Pivarnick wrote, "Soo much I could say right now because I know what really happened."
Pivarnick's comments come days after Parks confirmed she was dating Tamburello during an appearance on "Jeff Lewis Live." She told the "Flipping Out" star that she and Tamburello started dating recently, but confirmed they felt a connection in 2023 when they filmed season 2 of "The Traitors."

Here are some of your comments:
Emily: He was the one player I said I didn't want to lose during the transfer window, so I'm delighted he is staying. He is great defensively as well as going forward. He has such a bright future ahead of him.
Kevin: Yes, I am relieved. He is a class player and we need his experience now more than ever, especially with the younger players we now have at the club. I feel he is a future club captain.

We asked for your views on Lewis Hall committing his long-term future to Newcastle United after a second summer of key player exits.
Here are some of your comments:
Emily: He was the one player I said I didn't want to lose during the transfer window, so I'm delighted he is staying. He is great defensively as well as going forward. He has such a bright future ahead of him.
Kevin: Yes, I am relieved. He is a class player and we need his experience now more than ever, especially with the younger players we now have at the club. I feel he is a future club captain.

Liverpool still have a lot of work that needs to be done on their team.
The Anfield outfit's depth outside of their starting XI isn't the best with players such as Lewis Koumas and Trey Nyoni taking up prominent places in their squad.
Indeed, the fact that youngsters are being used as regular first-team players is obviously a breath of fresh air from Arne Slot's time in charge of the club but, for a team of Liverpool's calibre, they shouldn't have to be relying on players such as Koumas to play regular roles.
In the future, he could obviously come good and meet his potential but, at the moment, it's not ideal for the Reds to be using him week-in and week-out.
Obviously, some additions need to be made to Liverpool's attack before they're on the same level as some of their ***** le rivals but, there are also other areas among their ranks that could do with another upgrade or two.

The Kardashian family has become deeply intertwined with sports. One of the younger sisters, Kendall Jenner, was featured in a viral Super Bowl ad this year, and another, and Kim Kardashian, arguably the face of the family, has been romantically linked to athletes such as NBA player Kris Humphries, as well as NFL stars Reggie Bush and Odell Beckham Jr, and is currently dating F1 superstar Lewis Hamilton.
Now, Kardashian is deepening her inroads in the sports community, as she'll be an executive producer for Team Moms: Baseball, a reality TV series focusing on the parents of the Legendary Preps Academy baseball team in Scottsdale, Arizona.
"These families are passionate, competitive, and completely all in when it comes to their kids—and sometimes what happens in the stands is just as intense as what happens on the field," Kardashian and executive producer Natalie Ento said of the show, per Deadline. "That's what makes Team Moms: Baseball so much fun to watch."
On Wednesday, the first trailer for the show was released.
Somewhat unsurprisingly, the trailer and Kardashian's involvement in the show didn't debut to rave reviews.

The Chicago Bears are gearing up for their Week 1 matchup against the Carolina Panthers on Sunday afternoon, and we got some clarity on some key position battles that unfolded during the summer.
The Bears released their unofficial depth chart for Week 1, which included some notable updates along the offensive and defensive lines, as well as the secondary. While head coach Ben Johnson recently confirmed that Braxton Jones is the starting left tackle, Kentavius Street is listed as the starting defensive tackle alongside Grady Jarrett. Meanwhile, Xavier Woods gets the nod at safety with Cam Lewis slotting into the nickel role.
Here's a look at the Bears' unofficial depth chart ahead of Sunday's season opener:

Josh Hokit has a serious problem with Alex Pereira campaigning for a Ciryl Gane rematch.
Pereira (13-4 MMA, 10-3 UFC) was finished by Gane in their interim heavyweight ***** le fight at UFC Freedom 250 in June. Gane dropped Pereira with a jab then swarmed him for the second-round TKO. "Poatan" complained that several shots from Gane landed to the back of his head in the fight-ending sequence, and he's eager to run things back.
Hokit (10-0 MMA, 4-0 UFC), who scored two big wins over Curtis Blaydes and Derrick Lewis in the span of two months, believes Pereira has no business rematching Gane (14-2 MMA, 11-2 UFC) – or even asking for it.
"As a fan, that fight makes no f*cking sense," Hokit wrote on X. "I watched you get demolished. How about a more favorable match up like Sergei who is basically a striker & way less athletic than Ciryl. How about you get one f*cking win in this weight class before you are gifted another ***** le shot."
As a fan, that fight makes no ***** sense. I watched you get demolished. How about a more favorable match up like Sergei who is basically a striker & way less athletic than Ciryl. How about you get one ***** win in this weight class before you are gifted another ***** le shot. https://t.co/47rOmZ5Oqj

Surging heavyweight Josh Hokit went on tirade on social media after former two-division UFC champion Alex Pereira posted a video campaigning for a rematch with Ciryl Gane for the interim heavyweight belt.
In a series of X posts targeting Pereira and making his case for the next shot at Gane, Hokit criticized the idea that Pereira and Ilia Topuria could challenge for belts next after both got finished by Gane and Justin Gaethje this past June at UFC White House, respectively.
"As a fan, that fight makes no ***** sense," wrote Hokit, who finished Derrick Lewis on that same card. "I watched you get demolished. How about a more favorable match up like Sergei [Pavlovitch] who is basically a striker & way less athletic than Ciryl. How about you get one ***** win in this weight class before you are gifted another ***** le shot."
"Growing up, I loved the UFC & all of its fighters," he continued on a separate post. "So it gives me great pleasure to use my platform today to speak the truth: neither Ilia Topuria nor Alex Pereira deserve a ***** ***** le shot in their next fight. They both got handily destroyed. Make them earn it and fight their way back like everyone else."
Hokit argued that Tom Aspinall's manager Eddie Hearn is "obviously" stalling to "buy time in contract negotiations" instead of working on a deal for a ***** le unification bout with Gane. Hokit suggests, then, booking him versus Gane on the upcoming Madison Square Garden show November in New York, while Pereira battles Pavlovich on the same card.

Arsenal have several top defenders in their squad, but they are not satisfied and want more quality in that area, which has led to a reported interest in Borussia Dortmund left-back Daniel Svensson.
The Swede is regarded as one of the best defenders in the Bundesliga and is being monitored by several top teams, including AC Milan and Juventus. The Gunners are also interested in bringing him to the Emirates, despite already having several options available in his position.
The left back position is not an area where **** nal currently struggle, with Riccardo Calafiori and Piero Hincapié both capable of playing there. Myles Lewis Skelly can also operate in the position, giving the Gunners several options within their squad.
However, **** nal have shown over the last few seasons that they are a team determined to improve constantly. The Gunners believe Svensson could bring new qualities to the position and potentially provide another option as they continue to strengthen their squad.

Manchester United's decision start the season with Luke Shaw as the only senior left-back in the squad will hardly please fans. The Red Devils were expected to sign a long-term replacement for the Englishman this summer.
Shaw has entered the final year of his contract and turned 31 earlier this year. Given his history of injury-related issues, reinforcing the position emerged as a priority this year.
However, the Englishman started every game in the Premier League last season, suggesting that his fitness woes were behind him. That perhaps generated confidence behind the scenes over the summer.
United invested over £150 million in the midfield and were left with very little funds to spare for other positions. Despite being linked with players like Lewis Hall, Alejandro Balde, David Raum and Adrien Truffert, the Red Devils ended the summer without signing a new left-back.

Manchester United's priority during the final days of the summer transfer window was to bring in a left-back.
Their primary target was Lewis Hall of Newcastle United, but the Magpies refused to consider his sale and are now close to reaching an agreement with him over a contract renewal, making it difficult for United to revisit their interest.
However, United's recruitment team have reportedly started to explore other options before the next window opens.
According to Fussballdaten, Borussia Dortmund left-back Daniel Svensson is starting to attract the interest of Europe's biggest clubs.

Triple. Strikeout. Walk. Hit batter. Hit batter. Error.
That's how the Tigers scored two runs in an ugly second inning by the Twins on Monday, and it proved devastating as Detroit would go on to defeat Minnesota by a score of 5-4.
Joe Ryan, in his return from the injured list, gave up a solo homer to Rookie of the Year favorite Kevin McGonigle in the first inning, and then struggled with control in the second inning.
The All-Star right-hander gave up a triple and struck out a batter to start the second inning, and then his control vanished. Ryan walked Max Clark and then hit John Peck and Colt Keith on back-to-back pitches, the second hit batsman coming with the bases loaded.
The next batter, McGonigle, hit a grounder to Royce Lewis at first base, and Lewis threw home to catcher Ryan Jeffers. What should've been a routine force out turned into a disaster as the throw forced Jeffers to stretch to make the catch, causing his foot to drift an inch away from home plate, allowing the runner to score.

Watch LSU fans loudly boo Jayden Daniels' name during win over Clemson originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Fans of the LSU Tigers didn't have too much to jeer at on Saturday night in Baton Rouge. Things took a turn for the worse, however, when former quarterback Jayden Daniels appeared on the scoreboard.
During a timeout, the school aired an "NFLSU" segment to commemorate past LSU Tigers who've made a name for themselves in the NFL. Lloyd Cushenberry III, Reid Ferguson, Damien Lewis, Zavion Thomas and Grant Delpit all received courteous cheers from fans remembering the good times that came from formerly watching those same players compete in Death Valley.
Amid his offseason controversy over his former No. 5 jersey being used for sophomore cornerback DJ Pickett, the Baton Rouge faithful did not take too kindly to seeing their 2022-23 quarterback's face on the scoreboard.
After much anticipation and preseason controversy, Lane Kiffin's debut began with a 51-10 rout over Clemson. Perhaps the only time LSU fans booed during Saturday's entirety, including the storm delay that postponed the game for nearly three hours, was seeing their friend-turned-foe. Here's a recap of what happened with Daniels and his former school.

Round 14 of the 2026 Formula 1 season heads to the new Madring circuit, for the Spanish Grand Prix, from 11-13 September.
Championship leader Kimi Antonelli came back from 19th on the grid for a spectacular win in front of his home fans at the Italian Grand Prix.
In another surprise during the weekend, Alpine's Pierre Gasly managed to secure the first pole position of his career on Saturday.
Antonelli was joined by his Mercedes team-mate George Russell on the Monza podium, with Red Bull's Max Verstappen third.
It was a disappointing weekend for Ferrari, with Charles Leclerc crashing out of the race and Lewis Hamilton finishing sixth.

Lewis Hamilton says it is "far too late" for Ferrari to give him priority over team-mate Charles Leclerc in the championship fight, following a disappointing weekend at their home Italian Grand Prix.
The seven-time world champion, who started fourth and finished sixth, was pushed on to the grass by Leclerc on the opening lap, slipping him down to 10th, as the pair battled wheel-to-wheel at the exit of the first chicane.
Leclerc then suffered a high-speed crash at the Parabolica shortly after to leave Hamilton as Ferrari's only hope of a top-three finish.
Once the race restarted following the red-flag period caused by Leclerc's crash, Hamilton never fully rejoined the fight at the front, and with Mercedes securing a one-two finish at Monza, he has fallen further back in the championship fight.
The 41-year-old, who was level on points with second-placed Russell in the standings before Sunday's race, is now 10 behind his old Silver Arrows team-mate, and 76 points adrift of **** le leader and race winner Antonelli.
