Oklahoma needed overtime to shake off Army in a 28-21 overtime thriller, which prompts some questions about the Sooners heading into the heart of Big 12 play. Otherwise, it was business as usual for top contenders Alabama, Clemson, Ohio State and Georgia. There were still several overreactions, though. Here are the 10 biggest from Week 4: MORE: SN’s Week 5 Power Rankings OSU-Penn State, game of the year! BUY. ESPN’s “College GameDay” crew will be there, and they should be....

The Crimson Tide’s defeat on Saturday, delivered by LSU, wasn’t enough to knock them out of the top five, however; Alabama fell to No. 4 in the Coaches Poll and AP Top 25, leaving Nick Saban and Co. in striking distance, presumably, of a College Football Playoff rematch. With the win, the Tigers moved up to No. 1 in the Coaches Poll, retaining that position the AP Top 25....

There isn’t much movement in anticipation of the No. 1-vs. No.-2 showdown between LSU and Alabama in Week 11. The Tigers and Crimson Tide both have Playoff spots for now, though Oregon is on a surge in the Pac-12 after a 56-24 victory against USC. Memphis moved into our New Year’s Day 6 projections after a 54-48 victory against SMU.

When the lightning began to strike on Friday, the Ragin’ Cajuns went to battle against the University of Louisiana Monroe — a rock-paper-scissors battle.

Four of the eight teams that will compete for NCAA baseball supremacy in Omaha play in the SEC: Mississippi State, Arkansas, Vanderbilt and Auburn. The remaining four come from the ACC (Louisville, Florida State), Big Ten (Michigan) and Big 12 (Texas Tech). Noticeably absent from the field this year is a pair of Pac-12 schools: Defending champion Oregon State, which was knocked out in the regionals, and No. 1 UCLA, which became the seventh top overall seed to miss the CWS since 1999....

No. 1 Tennessee was viewed as one of the most dominant teams in the history of the sport. Unranked Notre Dame ended the Volunteers’ bid for a title. No. 8 East Carolina was looking for its first-ever trip to Omaha by hosting a super-regional. No. 9 Texas, instead, will go to the College World Series for a record 38th time. Gavin Cross was the best MLB prospect left in the super-regionals....

Boebert has received a torrent of criticism this week following an accusation from Democratic Representative Steve Cohen that she led a group for a tour through the Capitol ahead of the deadly January 6 riot. Along with spreading those claims, social media users have attacked Boebert by posting sexualized images of her and mocking her level of education, the newspaper reported. “[We cannot] sit idly by without condemning the blatantly sexist and elitist attacks being lobbed at one of Colorado’s elected officials,” the Post said....

In the second period of Tuesday’s game against the New York Rangers MacKinnon scored his seventh goal of the season off a deflection passed Henrik Lundqvist. It marked the sixth consecutive game he netted a goal, setting the Colorado Avalanche/Quebec Nordiques record for longest season-opening goal streak. The record was previously held by Mats Sundin of the Quebec Nordiques, who scored in five consecutive games to start the 1992-93 season....

“In the state of Colorado, the serious decision to start or end a pregnancy with medical assistance will remain between a person, their doctor, and their faith,” the signing statement from Polis read. The law affirms that regardless of decisions made by Congress in the future to overturn Roe v. Wade, reproductive health care and the right to abortion will be made available in Colorado. The bill was debated for 24 hours on the House floor before being passed, according to The Denver Post, and faced heavy opposition from Republican senators and representatives before ultimately being voted on a party-line of 20-15 last month....

The second meeting between the NFC West rivals will look a lot different. Why? Because neither of the big-money quarterbacks will be playing this time around. Both Stafford and Murray were dealing with injuries in the lead-up to Week 10, and each was considered questionable for the contest. There was some optimism that each could play after they both practiced on Friday. However, neither is quite ready to take the field on Sunday....

Philip Rivers and T.Y. Hilton both put together great games to help the Indianapolis Colts win their Week 13 meeting against the Houston Texans. Rivers did not throw an interception on Sunday. Instead, he turned in a solid performance that led his team to victory. Rivers found T.Y. Hilton eight times against the Houston Texans. Hilton racked up 110 receiving yards and one touchdown on Sunday. With this performance, Hilton has scored in two consecutive games....

Mercifully, the atmosphere surrounding the Colts has returned to business at hand, which is trying to advance to the Super Bowl. In advance of last week’s divisional playoff game against Denver, it would have been impossible for a visitor to this city to recognize which pack of horses most concerned the Indy media. But Peyton Manning is done now, looking every bit the victim of the Colts’ 24-13 Sunday win in Denver, and Tom Brady is just another Hall of Fame-bound quarterback who must be dealt with by Luck and the Colts this weekend in New England....

“Those closest to Pagano believe it’s inevitable he’ll be coaching elsewhere in 2016,” Jason LaCanfora of CBS Sports reported before the Colts opened the season at Buffalo on Sunday — a 27-14 Bills win.

Columbus Crew are coming off a 2-1 win over Toronto FC. Luis Diaz Espinoza and Gyasi Zardes scored two goals in quick succession for Columbus in the first half, while a second-half strike from Toronto’s Ayo Akinola ended up acting as a consolation goal for the away side. Meanwhile, the Chicago Fire lost their last MLS game to CF Montreal, their fifth overall this season. Mason Toye scored the only goal of the game, his 87th-minute strike proving to be the winner....

Keselowski and Logano drove Ford’s new Mustang to consecutive Cup victories the last two weeks, while in Australia reigning Supercars champion Scott McLaughlin swept the weekend in the debut of that new version of the Mustang. It’s quite a start for Penske, who last month was inducted into NASCAR’s Hall of Fame, feted at the Royal Automobile Club in London and celebrated his 82nd birthday. Penske in January hunkered down for the entire Rolex 24 at Daytona, where one of his two Acura entries pulled out a third-place finish....

The comedian took to Twitter to celebrate his February 27 invite to the White House. “IM GOING TO THE WHITE HOUSE!! SUPER EXCITED!! President @realDonaldTrump & the wonderful @FLOTUS.

The makeshift plot binges on Connie’s romance with an earthling auto mechanic (Chris Farley), and the family’s attempts to dodge two sleazy immigration officials (Michael McKean and David Spade). The INS refuses to believe that their name is “De Cicco” or that they come from France. At times “Coneheads” seems to be about xenophobia–or the nagging suspicion that one’s parents are aliens. Mostly, it’s about the Coneheads’ souped-up verbiage–“Mebs! We must egress immediately!...
