After a long offseason, college football fans have myriad options to choose from in Week 1’s slate of Thursday games. Those include the long-lost Backyard Brawl between No. 17 Pitt and West Virginia; a Big Ten cross-division battle between Penn State and Purdue; and a showdown between No. 12 Oklahoma State and Central Michigan, teams that share a surprising history of bad blood. The headliner of the week could very well be the Backyard Brawl, starting with the fact both schools have USC quarterback transfers — West Virginia’s JT Daniels and Pitt’s Kedon Slovis....

The action gets started early with the matchup of the day as No. 9 Penn State battles No. 2 Ohio State for first in the Big Ten East.

So which team has been the master of the money-line thus far this year? Yep, those lovable Kansas Jayhawks, who have three already this season, more than any other team. Big 12 brother Baylor pulled off five upsets in 2021, second only to Utah State, so maybe it has something to do with a conference that stretches 1,466 miles from Morgantown, W.V., to Lubbock, Texas. KU has a chance for upset No....

The conventional wisdom is that the Illini will still be basking in the afterglow of one of the biggest upsets of the season, and against a conference rival no less, which will mean a big letdown against Purdue this week, a team they have lost to in four of their last five meetings....

Sporting News’ preseason pick of Texas has been altered after LSU’s thrilling 45-38 victory in Austin on Saturday. Instead of putting the Tigers in the Playoff field, however, we went with an old stand-by. Oklahoma joins Alabama, Clemson and Ohio State, at least for now.

According to the Post and Courier, the most recent player to come forward is former guard Trevonte Dixon, who transfered from the Cougars following the 2012-13 season. A video of a physical confrontation between Wojcik and Dixon during a game two years ago is reportedly part of the new investigation. The first investigation included a 50-page report outlining the statements of 12 players (10 of whom spoke anonymously) alleging that Wojcik threatened physical violence against his players, called them inappropriate names, launched personal attacks against them and their families and berated members of his team with learning disabilities....

The Gunners have won three and drawn once in the four games in the competition this season, a run of form that has already ensured their place in the knock-out stage with two games to spare. With that in mind, Arsene Wenger may use the match to blood young players and rest more established campaigners as they look ahead to two quick-fire league games next week. TV CHANNEL & LIVE STREAM In the United Kingdom (UK), the match will be available to watch live on television on BT Sport 2 and by live stream using the BT Sport app....

In an interview with The Associated Press, Duque stated that he has high hopes for the medical marijuana industry in Colombia and the promotion of such is “a different story” than cocaine. He stated the production of cocaine has “a very high carbon footprint” along with the usage of a lot of gasoline and cement. Processing chemicals are also dumped in the forest. “In order to plant one hectare of coca in Colombia, two hectares of tropical jungle are destroyed,” Duque said....

After a decade of playing the Blizzard MMO in black and white, one player’s World of Warcraft guild mates decided to pitch in and raise enough money to purchase him a pair of the Enchroma Glasses so that he could finally see the green poison that he shouldn’t be standing in. The player, Jango, is clearly already adjusted to his new glasses in this video, so we don’t see his first moments experiencing the real world in color, but we do get to see his first Azeroth and Broken Isles experience in color....

No one tells it like it is better than Spurrier, whether he’s using his folksy style to admonish his own team or taking subtle digs at the opposition.

Monterrey booked their place in the quarter-finals with a 6-1 win on aggregate over Atletico Pantoja but have lost three games in Liga MX since. They have picked up a red card in each of these games....

Odds are the negative attention on the new set of modern rules will have subsided before those four glorious days in April during the Masters — unless, of course, the next man in a green jacket makes his final putt with the flagstick in the cup. As for Sergio Garcia? More bad luck. His latest and most serious tantrum — damaging greens out of frustration at the Saudi International — comes in a year when the PGA Championship is held at Bethpage Black, where ruthless galleries can make even the fans at the Phoenix Open blush....
