Sooners hold on for 45-40 win over Texas
- October 09, 2016
But, at some point, the head coach has to take the fall. Texas (2-3, 0-2) led after two long TD passes by freshman quarterback Shane Buechele in the first 4 1/2 minutes after halftime. The Longhorns have to pressure Mayfield to take pressure off a beleaguered secondary. In 2016, Mayfield has passed the ball for just under 80 completions. (more...)

Jays' Liriano cleared after taking line drive near head
- October 09, 2016
Darvish had as many strikeouts (four) in his five innings as homers allowed, becoming the first pitcher in the postseason to allow four homers in a game since Minnesota's Rick Reed against Oakland in Game 3 of the 2002 ALDS. He stared upward in disbelief after the balls landed in the seats. His work done, Kershaw was able to relax in the dugout, chewing gum and blowing bubbles while watching relievers Joe Blanton, Grant Dayton, Pedro Baez and Kenley Jansen combine to give up one hit over ...

Wenger: 'It's better for England job to go to an Englishman'
- October 09, 2016
Wenger came in for criticism from some Arsenal fans last season as a section of supporters displayed banners calling for him to be sacked and actively voiced their concerns at the Emirates.

Danny Willett gave a brutally honest assessment of his Ryder Cup
- October 09, 2016
Unfortunately some American fans showed that Peter Willett was in fact correct. Yet the veteran Englishman - playing his 10th Ryder Cup - was called upon with Europe 6-5 down as the morning foursomes drew to a close, Sergio Garcia and Rafael Cabrera Bello threatening to steal an unlikely point against Patrick Reed and Jordan Spieth in the final match.

Hagan's House: LSU's Ed Orgeron talks the talk
- October 09, 2016
Orgeron noted that he had also elevated defensive coordinator Dave Aranda to associate head coach . The Tigers' interim head coach Ed Orgeron said all of the right things, but executing them will be the tricky part. Many of those players, as well as current ones, were outspoken in November when Miles was almost ousted after a three-game losing streak that sent LSU tumbling from a top-five ranking and a possible berth in the College Football Playoff to the Texas Bowl.

O'Neill defends Georgia display, urges Ireland to 'fight' again
- October 09, 2016
Valeri Kazaishvili flashed a wild effort just wide of Ireland goalkeeper Darren Randolph's post, while Levan Mchedlidze was also one of the prevalent threats for the away team. Weiss said: "When you don't score goals, you can not take points. We had a bit of a rollicking amongst the lads at half-time and things were much better after that". (more...)

Bills DT Dareus, RB McCoy questionable vs. Rams
- October 09, 2016
The Rams moved to St. Louis after that season, where they stayed for more than two decades before returning to Southern California earlier this year. The good news for the Bills is that RB LeSean McCoy is adept at cutting and bouncing runs to the outside, so perhaps he'll be able to avoid Donald should he gain penetration. (more...)

Julian Edelman Comments on His Role Against Bills in Week 4
- October 09, 2016
There is a perception that Ryan has always fared well against Brady, but it's not really true. "I can sit back and say I don't care who plays quarterback, because Brady ain't", Ryan said Sunday, via ESPN . He said that one reason for his injury may have been an overly long drop-back and scramble which game Miami's Kiko Alonso time to catch up with him and grind his shoulder into the artificial turf.

'I'll be back even stronger than before': Tyson Fury cancels his retirement
- October 09, 2016
Perhaps this statement is to be taken with a pinch of salt in some regards though, as we've seen boxers retire over the years before and then make a u-turn on their decision afterwards. Fury superimposed his face on to the picture, with the hashtag #Tysonmontana , which did little to clear up the confusion surrounding the reports. The pair were scheduled to meet in July before Fury pulled out with an ankle injury. (more...)
