No. 16 Texas spoils No. 3 Texas A&M’s perfect season 27-17, knocks Aggies out of SEC title game

November 28, 2025

Arch Manning threw a touchdown pass and ran for the clinching score late in the fourth quarter and No. 16 Texas beat No. 3 Texas A&M 27-17 on Friday night to spoil the Aggies’ undefeated season and knock them out of the Southeastern Conference championship game. Manning’s 29-yard touchdown pass to Ryan Wingo in the third quarter gave Texas (9-3, 6-2 SEC, No, 16 CFP) a 13-10 lead. His 35-yard run up the middle on third down with 7:04 left put the Longhorns up 27-17. Texas kept alive any faint hopes of making the College Football Playoff for the third consecutive time. The Aggies (11-1, 7-1, No. 3 CFP) are all but assured their first playoff berth,

Texas A&M’s perfect season spoiled by rival Texas, but playoffs await for the Aggies

November 28, 2025

Texas beat Texas A&M again in a bitter rivalry. And while any loss to the Longhorns stings, this one is likely to stick with the Aggies for a long time. Texas’ 27-17 victory Friday night doomed the Aggies’ Southeastern Conference title hopes, spoiled their undefeated season, upended their potential seeding in the College Football Playoff and dinged quarterback Marcel Reed’s late-season surge as a Heisman Trophy contender. But the playoffs and a chance to play for a national title still await.

November 28, 2025

Trinidad Chambliss threw for 359 yards and four touchdowns, and No. 6 Mississippi beat Mississippi State 38-19 in the Battle for the Golden Egg.

De’Zhaun Stribling had two of those touchdowns and had four catches for 66 yards. Deuce Alexander had two catches for 94 yards, including an 88-yard score in the fourth quarter that put the game away. The Bulldogs had more than 400 yards of offense.

Reaves scores 38 points, Luka adds 35, Lakers hold off Mavs 129-119 in Anthony Davis’ LA return

November 28, 2025

The Lakers spoiled Anthony Davis’ return to Los Angeles with a 129-119 victory over the Dallas Mavericks. Austin Reaves scored 38 points, and Luka Doncic added 35 points and 11 assists in his third meeting with his former team. Davis had 12 points and five rebounds in his first game in Los Angeles since the Lakers traded him for Doncic 10 months ago. LeBron James scored 13 points after managing just two in the first half of his fourth game of the season, but he hit a decisive 3-pointer with two minutes to play.

No. 2 Indiana pursuing bigger goals after retaining Old Oaken Bucket at Purdue

November 28, 2025

Indiana linebacker Aiden Fisher walked across the field Friday night, carrying the prized Old Oaken Bucket following a 56-3 rout of Purdue. It was a muted celebration, at least publicly, and with good reason. There’s still work, much more work, for the second-ranked Hoosiers to do if they want to accomplish more goals. But inside the locker room, it was a different story. Coach Curt Cignetti said players were smoking cigars and having a “good old time.” By Saturday night, though, Cignetti will have them back to work, focused on winning their first Big Ten title since 1967.

Antetokounmpo’s return from injury not enough to stop Bucks’ 7- game skid, NBA Cup elimination

November 28, 2025

Giannis Antetokounmpo’s return to the court was not enough for the Milwaukee Bucks to stop their longest losing streak since his rookie season. Restricted to 28 minutes after missing four games with a groin strain, Antetokounmpo had 30 points, 15 rebounds and eight assists Friday night, but the Bucks were eliminated from the NBA Cup with their 118-109 loss to the Knicks. It was Milwaukee’s seventh straight loss. It is the Bucks’ longest skid since dropping eight in a row March 11-24, 2014, when Milwaukee won 15 games after selecting Antetkounmpo in the 2013 draft.

Eric Morris stresses all-in message at North Texas despite impending move to Oklahoma State

November 28, 2025

North Texas coach Eric Morris is stressing his all-in message despite his impending move to Oklahoma State. The Mean Green have a shot at the College Football Playoff after clinching a spot in the American Conference championship game with a 52-25 victory over Temple. Word of Morris’ decision got to his players before he could deliver the news in a team meeting. He says he’ll have to live with that and is spending time trying to open up to his players to keep them on board. Morris says he’s coaching until the end of the season even if a CFP snub leads to a bowl without much at stake.

Ole miss coach Lane Kiffin emotional, non-committal about his future, following Egg Bowl triumph

November 28, 2025

Ole Miss coach Lane Kiffin says he feels he like he has to make an announcement about his coaching future by Saturday and says doing so won’t be “as enjoyable as people think.” Kiffin, meeting with reporters after Mississippi’s 38-19 victory over Mississippi State on Friday, says he hasn’t made a decision. Kiffin says he’s leaning on mentors Pete Carroll and Nick Saban for advice in making his decision. Ole Miss athletic director Keith Carter has asked Kiffin to decide by Saturday so the Rebels would know if they need to look for a new coach before it’s too late to attract a preferred candidate.

Eagles offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo will keep his job after Hurts, Barkley struggle again

November 28, 2025

Eagles coach Nick Sirianni says he’s sticking with embattled offensive coordinator Kevin Patullo. Philadelphia fans booed and chanted for Patullo to be fired throughout Friday’s 24-15 loss to the Chicago Bears. Sirianni says the Eagles’ problems on offense can’t all be blamed on Patullo’s play-calling. The coach says “it’s never about one person.” The Eagles ran just 17 plays and had two first downs in the first half against the Bears. They finished with 317 total yards to 425 for Chicago. Even the reliable tush push didn’t work, with Jalen Hurts losing a fumble on the once-unstoppable play.

Florida is moving on from Lane Kiffin and targeting Tulane’s Jon Sumrall, AP source says

November 28, 2025

A person familiar with the search says Florida is moving on from Lane Kiffin and targeting Tulane’s Jon Sumrall as its next head coach. The person spoke on condition of anonymity because negotiations are ongoing and nothing is finalized. Sumrall also is considered to be Auburn’s top target to replace Hugh Freeze. On3 first reported the Gators’ decision to move on from Kiffin, which came after getting lukewarm feedback from Kiffin’s camp in recent days. The 43-year-old Sumrall played linebacker at Kentucky (2002-04) and returned to his alma mater for a three-year stint before becoming Troy’s head coach in 2022.

No. 4 Georgia holds off No. 23 Georgia Tech 16-9 for 8th straight win in series

November 28, 2025

Nate Frazier ran for 108 yards, Gunner Stockton’s scoring pass to Zachariah Branch was the only touchdown of the game and No. 4 Georgia retained its hold on its state rivalry with another close win by holding off No. 23 Georgia Tech 16-9. The Bulldogs set a record with their eighth straight win in the rivalry. Georgia Tech, which moved its home game from its campus stadium to Mercedes-Benz Stadium, closed the regular season by losing three of four games. Peyton Woodring of Georgia and Aidan Birr of Georgia Tech each kicked three field goals.

Bears’ dominant rushing attack leads to their 5th straight win, 24-15 over reeling Eagles

November 28, 2025

The Chicago Bears have won their fifth straight game. They used a dominant rushing attack to beat the reeling Philadelphia Eagles 24-15 on Friday. Kyle Monangai rushed for 130 yards and a touchdown, and D’Andre Swift ran for 125 yards and a score for Chicago. Led by rookie coach Ben Johnson, the surprising Bears are alone in first place in the NFC North heading into a showdown at Green Bay next weekend. The Eagles seemingly had the NFC East wrapped up two weeks ago, only to suffer consecutive defeats that have them looking little like a Super Bowl contender.

Pritchard expressed gratitude for returning to Stanford and aims to build a championship program. Washington coach Dan Quinn praised Pritchard as a fantastic head coach.

Trump says he plans to pardon former Honduran President Hernandez for 2024 drug trafficking sentence

November 28, 2025

President Donald Trump said Friday that he will be pardoning former Honduran President Juan Orlando Hernandez, who in 2024 was convicted for drug trafficking and weapons charges and sentenced to 45 years in prison. The president explained his decision on social media by posting that “according to many people that I greatly respect,” Hernandez was “treated very harshly and unfairly.” Hernandez had been convicted last year in the U.S. of conspiring to import cocaine and two weapons counts. He had served two terms as the leader of the Central American nation of roughly 10 million people.

November 28, 2025

New York Jets cornerback Kris Boyd has returned to the hospital after being released following a shooting in midtown Manhattan on November 16. Boyd shared on Instagram that health issues required his return to the hospital. Jets coach Aaron Glenn confirmed Friday that Boyd had been readmitted. Boyd was shot in the abdomen and the shooter fled the scene. New York police have released surveillance images of a suspect. Boyd, who hasn’t played this season because of a shoulder injury, signed with the Jets in March.

Trump says he wants to ‘permanently pause’ migration to the US from poorer countries

November 28, 2025

President Donald Trump says he wants to “permanently pause migration” from poorer nations and is promising to seek to expel millions of immigrants from the United States by revoking their legal status. He’s blaming immigrants for problems from crime to housing shortages as part of “social dysfunction” in America and demanding “REVERSE MIGRATION.” The comment came late Thursday in his most severe social media post against immigration since returning to the Oval Office in January. A day earlier, two National Guard members who were patrolling the streets of the nation’s capital under his orders were shot. A 29-year-old Afghan national who worked with the CIA during the Afghanistan War is facing charges

November 28, 2025

The United States Soccer Federation proposed 14 American sites among 20 possible venues to host games of the 2031 Women’s World Cup, including seven U.S. stadiums to be used for next year’s men’s tournament. FIFA has released the bid book for the 2031 and 2035 women’s tournaments. There is only one bidder for each, a U.S.-Mexico-Costa Rica-Jamaica proposal for 2031 and a United Kingdom plan for 2035. FIFA is to formally confirm the bids at its congress on April 30. Twenty-six additional U.S. stadiums were mentioned as suitable American venues for a 48-nation tournament the bidders project would draw 4.5 million fans.

Steelers quarterback Aaron Rodgers cleared to return against the Buffalo Bills

November 28, 2025

Aaron Rodgers and his broken left wrist will start on Sunday when Pittsburgh hosts Buffalo. Rodgers, who sat out last week’s loss to Chicago after injuring the wrist against Cincinnati on Nov. 16, was a full participant in practice for the second consecutive day on Friday. Steelers head coach Mike Tomlin said Rodgers will not have any injury designation, clearing the way for the 41-year-old Rodgers to return. The Steelers held Rodgers out of the Bears game after he was limited in practice last week. Pittsburgh (6-5) has dropped four of six, but can break out of a first-place tie with Baltimore if it beats the Bills (7-4).

College football mascots just as good at keeping their identities secret as firing up a crowd

November 28, 2025

Many college mascots are not permitted to reveal their identities until after their days of being a costumed performer have come to an end. Nicole Hurley spent two years as Cocky, the South Carolina Gamecock. She unmasked herself at the school’s commencement ceremony in the spring, rolling into the arena wearing a cap, gown and oversized yellow bird feet. Hurley is a member of an elite fellowship. Ex-mascots. The job is to fire up the crowd, bring a smile to a fan’s face and symbolically represent the university. And anonymity is the name of the game for many of them.

Eel populations are falling, and new protections were defeated. Japan and the US opposed them

November 28, 2025

Valuable eels are in decline all over the world, leading to a new push for restrictions on trade to try to help stave off extinction. Freshwater eels are critically important for the worldwide sushi industry, and some species have declined by more than 90% since the 1980s. Scientists say the eels have succumbed to a combination of dams, pollution, habitat loss, climate change and overfishing. The loss of eels motivated the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora to consider new restrictions to protect the wriggling fish. Members met in Uzbekistan this week and the proposed changes were shot down.

No. 1 Ohio State hoping No. 15 Michigan does not add to long list of upsets in The Game on Saturday

November 28, 2025

The Game has had many upsets, including last year when Michigan stunned Ohio State as nearly 20-point underdogs. The top-ranked Buckeyes don’t want the 15th-ranked Wolverines to add to the list on Saturday in Ann Arbor, Michigan. In terms of point spreads, last year’s upset was the largest since at least 1995. Michigan’s win in 1969 in coach Bo Schembechler’s debut season against mentor Woody Hayes was perhaps the most significant in the series. The 1973 game was memorable because the top-ranked Buckeyes settled for a famous 10-10 with the Wolverines and it inspired a documentary.
