The SEC will take center stage Saturday as two massive games headline the college football schedule, while we also have a few important matchups that could fly under the radar.
No. 1 Texas will host No. 5 Georgia in the most anticipated conference game of the season. The Longhorns have a chance to make a massive statement to the SEC that they are ready to be the “big dogs” in their first year in the conference, while the Bulldogs can earn a key head-to-head victory over a team that will likely be in the SEC Championship Game race until the bitter end.
The Missouri Tigers have a pretty smart plan to get people amped up for the program’s game against Auburn:
Cheap beer.
The Tigers are currently 5-1, and the team’s loss was a brutal blowout at the hands of Texas A&M. Missouri definitely hasn’t looked the part after being a preseason national title contender.

And Thursday night, the New Orleans Saints and Denver Broncos put on a snoozer in which some of the more compelling plays were dropped interceptions, a fumble return for a touchdown called back by an offside penalty, and the inconsistent play of two rookie quarterbacks.
But the NFL will survive this.
At 17, the Tide’s dominant freshman was supposed to still be in high school this fall — and former opponents are glad he’s not.

Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc is focused on his own fight, and not the one between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris
AUSTIN — Thursday in the Ferrari hospitality space, Charles Leclerc addressed the assembled Formula 1 media world, including SB Nation. The very first question he faced was whether he would be acting as something of a “referee” in the title race between Max Verstappen and Lando Norris.
For Leclerc, who sits third in the Drivers’ Championship, he has something else in mind.
