Hello there, and welcome to the Week 6 Power Rankings.
There is a freedom and a lightness to the idea that no more undefeated teams remain. We can drop all the mythos and agree on the one abiding truth that gets us through this universe together: no one is immune to dropping a game against PJ Walker.
In all seriousness, it was refreshing to see the 49ers look human. It was refreshing to see Jalen Hurts’s humanity cost the Eagles. It was refreshing to see some clubs like the Brows and the Jets log what we’d consider signature wins of this particular era.

Despite all sides wanting it to work, the ‘framework agreement’ involving the PGA and DP World Tours and PIF is in trouble, writes Iain Carter.
According to USA Fencing, Liz Kocab captured the 2023 FIE Veteran Fencing World Championships title in the women’s 70+ age category.
Their article hails the greatness of Kocab as a fencer. Kocab considered retiring from the sport, USA Fencing reports, but just had to compete one last time.
“I wanted to support USA Fencing,” Kocab said, according to the organization’s website. “Otherwise, I was actually thinking of stepping away. But the fact that it was in America, I thought that was important to support the USA. This is my way of saying thanks to USA Fencing.
We’re all guilty of paying attention to offenses more than defenses. But there’s no denying that defenses commanded the spotlight in Week 6 of the NFL season.
The Browns’ often-overlooked defense made a strong case for being the league’s best unit during the surprising win against the 49ers. But the Jets’ defense was just as impressive in their shocking win versus the Eagles. (I need more synonyms for surprising and shocking with all these upsets.
As part of its 2023–24 men’s basketball preseason coverage, Sports Illustrated is rolling out previews for each of the six high-major conferences. Next up is the Big East.
There may not be a more exciting conference on paper than the Big East, thanks to a recent influx of coaching talent that will produce headline-generating matchups all season long. From Rick Pitino at St. John’s to Ed Cooley stabilizing Georgetown and other recent hires like Shaka Smart at Marquette and Sean Miller at Xavier, no league boasts a deeper coaching roster than this one.

These are the teams we’re watching down the stretch.
It’s too early to say we’ve got “contenders” and “pretenders” in the NFL quite yet. We’ve just hit the one-third point of the season and there’s so much drama left to happen between now and the playoffs.
That said, we’re settling into the midpoint of the year and even this early there are some teams that leap off the screen as being much better (or worse) that their records have shown thus far.
Typically, you don’t see NFL coaches blatantly show the world their team’s play sheet, but the Dallas Cowboys aren’t your typical team.
During the Cowboys’ eventual 20-17 win over the Los Angeles Chargers on Monday night, Dallas head coach Mike McCarthy held up the team’s play sheet exposing every single play on one side of the laminated, very colorful, piece of paper.

The Los Angeles Chargers lost at home to the Dallas Cowboys, 20-17, on Monday night to fall to 2-3 on the season.
During the game one of the Chargers fans at Sofi Stadium went viral when ESPN cameras showed her absolutely fired up reaction to Los Angeles’ game-tying touchdown in the fourth quarter.
Look at how pumped up this fan was after Justin Herbert hit tight end Gerald Everett for a one-yard score to even things up at 17-17. She really went through all the emotions on this big play for her favorite team.

We went a solid 9-5 last weekend to run our season record to 43-39. You guys all know I’m not the kind of guy to brag, but we also went 5-1 in the NFL Outkick Six Pack, meaning we had a stellar 14-6 weekend in college football and NFL combined.
This weekend I’ll be back on Big Noon Kickoff on Fox, this time interviewing Luke Bryan.
But before all of that happens, I’ll be taping “The Fade” with Kelly in Vegas on Tuesday. We’ll discuss all our college and NFL picks and get you ready for the gambling weekend to come.
Tiger Woods has not played a competitive round of golf since withdrawing from the Masters in April, but in looking at the field of players set to tee it up in his annual Hero World Challenge, it appears there may be a chance he could tee it up in the November event.
A total of 19 players, including eight of the Top 10 in the world, have committed to playing in the Bahamas tournament with one tournament exemption spot left to be announced.
Some are speculating that Woods may be holding onto that final spot for himself.
