No. 4 Texas stuns No. 1 Ohio State 24-23 after erasing 20-point 4th-quarter deficit

AUSTIN, Texas (AP) — Arch Manning and No. 4 Texas stole a 24-23 victory from No. 1 Ohio State on Saturday night, rallying from a 20-point fourth-quarter deficit to win it on Hollywood Smothers’ 1-yard touchdown run with 25 seconds left. The Buckeyes had appeared in complete control after a dominant three quarters that built a 23-3 lead. But Texas rallied behind quarterback Arch Manning, whose touchdown pass to Ryan Wingo early in the fourth started the comeback. Smothers scored on a 1-yard run with 7:14 to play before Ohio State drove for what could have been a clinching field goal.

Elena Rybakina beats Aryna Sabalenka to win the US Open title and punctuate her rise to No. 1

NEW YORK (AP) — Elena Rybakina won her first U.S. Open title and punctuated her climb to the top of women’s tennis by beating Aryna Sabalenka 6-4, 5-7, 6-2 on Saturday. Rybakina had already been guaranteed to replace Sabalenka at No. 1 in the rankings next week and for good measure took the U.S. Open title that Sabalenka had won the previous two years. It was the third Grand Slam title for Rybakina and the second this year. She opened the season by beating Sabalenka for the Australian Open title. This time, she stopped Sabalenka’s 19-match winning streak at the U.S. Open, where she hadn’t lost since falling to Coco Gauff in the 2023 final.

Oklahoma State stuns No. 6 Oregon 39-31, ending 21-game skid against FBS opponents

STILLWATER, Okla. (AP) — Drew Mestemaker threw for 317 yards and two touchdowns while rushing for 109 yards and a score, and Oklahoma State ended a 21-game skid against FBS opponents by pulling off the first true stunner of the 2026 season, beating No. 6 Oregon 39-31. Coach Eric Morris’ first victory with the Cowboys won’t be forgotten by any of the delirious fans in Stillwater, particularly after Oklahoma State went 1-11 last season and lost 24-10 to Tulsa in its season opener. The Ducks, the preseason No. 2 who looked vulnerable in a season-opening home win over Boise State, suffered a huge blow to their national title hopes. Oregon had been favored by 23 1/2 points.

No. 8 LSU and QB Sam Leavitt overcome a rash of turnovers in a 45-14 victory over Louisiana Tech

BATON ROUGE, La. (AP) — Sam Leavitt overcame three interceptions with a three touchdowns rushing, and No. 8 LSU pulled away in the second half for a 45-14 victory over a Louisiana Tech team that gave the Tigers fits for much of the game. LSU’s defense allowed just 140 net yards while producing seven sacks and three turnovers. But LSU coach Lane Kiffin’s offense will have corrections to make before the Tigers travel next Saturday to play No. 9 Mississippi, the team Kiffin coached a year ago. Tech trailed by just six points before LSU began to pull away on Leavitt’s 9-yard TD run with 4:32 left in the third quarter. Ole Miss transfer Princewill Umanmielen had three sacks for LSU.

Caden Buhr’s field goal with 15 seconds left lifts No. 21 Iowa over Iowa State, 16-13

IOWA CITY, Iowa (AP) — Caden Buhr made a 42-yard field goal with 15 seconds left to give No. 21 Iowa a 16-13 victory over Iowa State on Saturday night. The game ended with a timing question after the Cyclones got the ball to their own 49 after Jaylen Raynor threw a 24-yard pass to Carter Pabst. It appeared time had run out after Pabst had been tackled, but a replay review showed there was one second left. Iowa State, though, was out of timeouts, and by rule there would not have been enough time to get off a snap once the ball was set.

Arsenal goes clear on top of the Premier League, Liverpool and Chelsea stumble

Bruno Guimaraes sent Arsenal three points clear at the top of the Premier League with a moment of brilliance that was doubly painful for Sunderland. Not only did the Brazil midfielder set up a 2-0 win for defending champion Arsenal at the Stadium of Light. But as a former Newcastle player, he made the most of his moment, sending a message to the home supporters by cupping his ears as he ran towards the corner in celebration. Liverpool and Chelsea have dropped more points in the Premier League after being held to surprise draws at home.

Two huge putts from Kupcho give US renewed hope in remarkable Solheim Cup finish

DEN BOSCH, Netherlands (AP) — U.S. golfer Jennifer Kupcho rolled in two late birdie putts — one, outrageously, from 90 feet — to leave pretty much everyone at speechless at the Solheim Cup in the Netherlands. Kupcho’s two sucker punches on Nos. 17 and 18 earned the Americans an unlikely point from the last match on the Bernardus Golf course and tied Europe at 8-8 after four sessions. The Sunday singles will determine the destination of the crystal trophy. The United States needs 14 points to keep possession.

Michigan shows its resilience in 17-10 win over No. 11 Oklahoma after getting lucky break in opener

ANN ARBOR, Mich. (AP) — Michigan earned a signature win in Week 2 of the Kyle Whittingham era. And it was right on time. The Wolverines showed their resilience in a 17-10 victory over No. 11 Oklahoma a week after getting a lucky break in a controversial win against Western Michigan. Bryce Underwood led the way, becoming the team’s primary ball carrier and avoiding turnovers after Whittingham said earlier in the week that the sophomore quarterback had to improve to keep his job. Underwood had 18 carries for 87 yards, including a 38-yard touchdown run after his job seemed to be in jeopardy.

Jefferson-Wooden, Bednarek make some bank in Budapest with a shot at $300K for the weekend

BUDAPEST, Hungary (AP) — Melissa Jefferson-Wooden ran a world-leading 10.62 seconds, blowing away Julien Alfred at the Ultimate Championship and grabbing a $150,000 first prize and a victory in what became a back-and-forth, three-week, best-of-three series between the reigning Olympic and world champions. Jefferson-Wooden’s time edged out this this year’s previous best time by .01 seconds and fell short of her own personal best by the same .01. A few minutes after her win, Kenny Bednarek sprung an upset in the men’s race, beating Olympic champion Oblique Seville to win $150,000 of his own. Bednarek won in 9.85 and has a chance for another first prize Sunday, where he’s a favorite in the 200 meters.
