It was a rough Saturday for Mike Elko after his Texas A&M Aggies suffered an upset loss to the unranked Auburn Tigers. And after the game, Auburn’s social media team took a victory lap — by using Elko’s own words against him.
During Elko’s Tuesday press conference, the Aggies’ head coach said that his team was focused entirely on Texas — A&M’s long-awaited rivalry game next week — before quickly correcting himself and saying “Auburn.”
“When you’re in the situation we’re in, it’s easy to focus on the task at hand,” Elko said.

It’s a day that ends in the letter ‘y,’ so Indy Star sports columnist Gregg Doyel is acting strange online. Thankfully, this scenario has nothing to do with him acting creepy towards WNBA star Caitlin Clark, but instead, centers around the Ohio State Buckeyes blowing out the Indiana Hoosiers on Saturday.
For anyone who may have forgotten, Doyel stole the show during Clark’s introductory press conference with the Indiana Fever by making the scene all about himself in one of the strangest moves ever seen in a media setting.

Charley Hull’s fanbase keeps getting bigger and bigger, specifically with blue-collar Americans. Hull, the No. 12 player in the world, has become a legitimate star in 2024 due to her strong campaign on the course while also catching the attention of even the most casual of golf fans by ripping cigarettes in the middle of tournaments.
During the final round of The Annika last week, Hull performed the Trump Dance, which has taken over the sports world across America.
The penultimate weekend of the college football season was a wild ride from noon through midnight, and not much was cleared up during the process.
Ohio State ended Indiana’s hopes of a perfect season, Colorado’s bid for the College Football Playoff came to a screeching halt, Notre Dame made a massive statement and the race for the SEC title is … still as clear as mud.
Wisconsin fans are quitting on the program after another humiliating loss.
The Badgers lost to Nebraska 44-25 Saturday in Lincoln to fall to 5-6, and there was absolutely excuse for what unfolded.
It was a disgusting performance for the Badgers, and the team’s bowl streak now depends on beating Minnesota in the last game of the season. It’s a disgraceful position to be in.
While Nebraska fans storming the field was pathetic (you can read my full reaction to that here), Wisconsin’s play was easily the worst part of the day.

I told you last week that we should all expect some upsets down the stretch run of the college football season.
Well, they came fast and furious on Saturday, jumbling the playoff picture immensely, from the moment Ole Miss lost in the early kickoff game to Florida until Alabama and Texas A&M both went down in the night kickoffs to Oklahoma and Auburn, respectively.
But the SEC playoff contenders going up in flames wasn’t all we saw either. BYU, which was undefeated until last week, sustained their second loss and are teetering on the fringes of the playoff race.
There hasn’t been a whole lot to cheer about for the Pittsburgh Penguins this season as the team looks more and more like it might be time to start rebuilding, but they got something to be excited about on Saturday night when long-time captain Sidney Crosby scored the 600th goal of his NHL career.
Big No. 600 came as the Pens played host to the Utah Hockey Club and trailed them 2-0 early in the second period.
Man, he did that in style too. A nice, Crosby-style down-on-one-knee one-timer from a completely absurd angle to hit the milestone.
Nice.

Will D’Andre Swift suit up for Week 12? Blaine Grisak breaks down the fantasy football implications.
The Chicago Bears will have a lot to prove over the final seven weeks of the season. If they are unable to turn things around, it’s very possible that big changes could get made in the offseason. After firing offensive coordinator Shane Waldron, there was a lot to like from Thomas Brown last week in the team’s loss to the Packers. One of those bright spots was running back D’Andre Swift who had 14 carries for 71 yards and a touchdown.
