Texas A&M coach Jimbo Fisher unexpectedly became a top highlight on Saturday for all the wrong reasons thanks to a hilarious sequence at home against Auburn.
With the Aggies up 20–3 in the fourth quarter, a carry from running back Rueben Owens was stymied after a forced fumble that resulted in a 67-yard scoop-and-score by Auburn linebacker Eugene Asante.
As Asante streaked down the sideline, however, Fisher suddenly appeared on the field mid-play and nearly got run over, a sight that gave a whole new meaning to the program’s signature “12th Man” tradition.

Fox’s Big Noon Kickoff co-host Mark Ingram announced his presence at the University of Cincinnati by absolutely clobbering the Bearcat and then dancing on his grave.
The show spent Saturday morning in Cincinnati, the home of Skyline Chili, William Howard Taft, and, of course, the Bearcats who took on the Oklahoma.
Before the game, the Big Noon Kickoff crew was having some fun running some plays for the crowd. On one, the Bearcat lined up against Ingram.
The NASCAR Cup Series shifts to Texas Motor Speedway to open the second round of the playoffs this weekend.
Dabo Swinney is a coach who’s never been shy to speak his mind, and the Clemson football coach lived up to that reputation during Saturday’s game against visiting No. 4 Florida State by openly criticizing his own defensive coordinator at halftime.
Swinney’s comments came after Clemson’s defense, led by second-year DC Wes Goodwin, surrendered a 2-yard touchdown run to Seminoles quarterback Jordan Travis to cap a five-play, 75-yard drive to end the first half.

Thompson’s shank on the 18th hole Friday was a key moment at the Solheim Cup, but so too was her post-round press conference.
Despite not playing in this year’s Solheim Cup, Jessica Korda has come to Lexi Thompson’s defense.
After Friday’s fourball round, in which Thompson and Lilia Vu lost to Leona Maguire and Georgia Hall, Thompson and U.S. Captain Stacy Lewis got testy in the press conference.
Shedeur Sanders arrived to Autzen Stadium with a determined look on his face as No. 19 Colorado (3–0) faces one of its toughest games of the season in a road matchup against No. 10 Oregon (3–0) on Saturday afternoon.
He also had some esteemed company alongside him.
The Buffaloes quarterback—donning his shades—entered the Ducks’ premises with Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Terrell Owens early Saturday afternoon as Colorado looks to keep its unblemished season intact through Week 4.
Clemson needed a new kicker this week, so coach Dabo Swinney called a familiar name who wasn’t even playing football anymore. Jonathan Weitz, Clemson’s former backup kicker, returned to the team this week despite preparing for a job in the real world.
Weitz was a walk-on at Clemson from 2019 to ’22, but he spent the entirety of his career behind B.T. Potter, the Tigers’ all-time leader in field goals. Both Potter and Weitz moved on from the team after last year, with Potter in the NFL and Weitz headed to the next phase of his life.

Zhang could not get the putter working late in her round on Saturday, as she ultimately lost her match in afternoon fourballs.
Rose Zhang played admirably on Saturday, beginning her match with an eagle on the drivable par-4 1st hole.
But her putter, which was red hot Friday, cooled off down the stretch, ultimately costing her and Andrea Lee the match.
Madelene Sagstrom and Emily Pedersen defeated Zhang and Lee 2 & 1 on Saturday afternoon, thus giving Team Europe its 7th point in the Solheim Cup.
The hype around Saturday’s game between No. 19 Colorado and No. 10 Oregon in Eugene is at a palpable level due to the incredible job Deion Sanders has done in resurrecting a Buffaloes program that is off to a surprising 3-0 start.
The Buffs, darlings of college football, are dominating headlines due to their swagger, bravado and explosive offense. But some Colorado players might have given the Ducks even more motivation for the matchup Saturday morning during a pregame walkthrough at Autzen Stadium.
On Monday night, Nick Chubb suffered an injury so gruesome the ESPN broadcast refused to show the replay. Most of us can’t comprehend what the Cleveland Browns’ star running back is dealing with.
But if anyone understands, it’s Napoleon McCallum.
McCallum is a Navy veteran who played running back for the Los Angeles Raiders. But in 1994, he suffered a career-ending injury on Monday Night Football against the San Francisco 49ers. So when the 59 year old saw Chubb’s injury, he got flashbacks.
“It’s hard to watch, and it brings back so many memories,” McCallum told TMZ Sports.
