Orioles Make Multiple Roster Moves

The Orioles shuffled three right‑handers on Saturday. Albert Suarez, who bounced through waivers five times and earned a win with four scoreless innings against the Yankees, elects free agency. Codi Heuer, acquired at the trade deadline from Milwaukee, accepts an outright assignment to Triple‑A Norfolk after posting a 3.46 ERA in Cleveland’s system and a sub‑1.00 WHIP in 12 games with Norfolk. Colin Selby, coming off shoulder surgery that sidelined him for the 2026 season, is reinstated from the 60‑day IL and also sent to Norfolk. These moves clear roster spots while keeping depth in the organization.

Silent Night in Nebraska as Huskies shock Cornhuskers

The Washington Huskies upset the Nebraska Cornhuskers 17-10 at Memorial Stadium, moving to 5-3 and within one win of bowl eligibility. Backup QB Demond Williams ignited the offense, while wideout Chris Lawson hauled in 12 catches for 155 yards and a touchdown. UW’s defense forced three interceptions, including a 15‑second pick‑six by Alex McLaughlin that sealed the lead. The win boosts UW’s chances with upcoming games against Penn State, Michigan State, No. 4 Indiana and Oregon. Lawson emerges as the team’s top offensive weapon, and the defense’s dominant showing bodes well for the Huskies’ season turnaround.

Spurs 121, Wolves 111: Couldn’t Get Over the Hump

The Minnesota Timberwolves fall 121-111 to the San Antonio Spurs despite a valiant effort on a back‑to‑back night without Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert. Victor Wembanyama dazzles with 43 points on 17‑34 shooting, while the Wolves lean on Ayo Dosunmu’s 27 points, nine rebounds and efficient shooting, and Jonathan Kuminga’s 19 points and defensive work. Rookie Joan Beringer steps in for Gobert, contributing 12 points and six boards. LaMelo Ball struggles, scoring just 10 points before fouling out, and the bench provides limited impact. The loss highlights both promising individual performances and lingering roster gaps as the Wolves chase playoff positioning.

The HUSKERS Find a New Way To Do the Same Thing: Washington 17 NEBRASKA 10 (UPDATED)

Nebraska’s 17-10 loss to Washington on Nov. 1 highlighted another fourth‑quarter collapse for the Huskers. After a 7‑3 halftime lead, a missed 36‑yard field goal by kicker Kyle Cunanan and a pick‑six by quarterback Anthony Colandrea tipped the game. Washington’s Demond Williams engineered an 81‑yard drive, and John Hohl sealed the win with a 42‑yard field goal. Nebraska’s defense, the Blackshirts, recorded four sacks and nine tackles for loss, but offensive miscues—four interceptions and three missed kicks—proved costly.

Cathy Engelbert’s Championship Ceremony Moment Draws Hostile Treatment As Valkyries Secure First WNBA Title

The Golden State Valkyries clinch their first WNBA championship with a 68-63 Game 7 win over the Atlanta Dream, becoming the youngest expansion franchise to capture the title. The celebration turns sour when outgoing commissioner Cathy Engelbert, presenting her final trophy, is met with loud boos at the Chase Center – the second such incident in eight months after similar jeers in Phoenix last year. Fans criticize Engelbert over player‑safety, officiating and draft eligibility controversies, despite her credit for league growth. Gabby Williams leads the Valkyries with 30 points as they complete a playoff run that includes a sweep of the Las Vegas Aces and a first‑round win over Dallas.

5 Things Learned From College Football Week 9

Georgia rebounds from an upset loss to Auburn with a dominant 27‑8 win over Florida, reasserting its elite status.

Suns Notes: Brooks, Green, Ighodaro, Dunn

The Suns lose to the Nuggets after Dillon Brooks is ejected for a flagrant‑2 for kicking Jamal Murray in the groin, a decision coach Jordan Ott disputes.

Meanwhile, starter Jalen Green struggles, scoring just two points on six shots, while bench spark plug Collin Gillespie drops 16 points and 10 assists. Oso Ighodaro returns from an oblique strain with nine rebounds and five assists, and rookie Ryan Dunn adds energy as a small‑ball center, prompting optimism about the second unit’s growth.

Ohio State’s 30-18 loss to USC was a sloppy, unfocused mess of its own making

The Ohio State Buckeyes fall 30-18 to second‑ranked USC at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum on Oct. 31, 2026. Freshman QB Luke Fahey throws 21‑for‑38 for 260 yards and one TD, but the Buckeyes squander a 126‑yard advantage with relentless penalties, red‑zone miscues and dropped passes—including a Bo Jackson fumble‑catch and a Chris Henry Jr. drop. Despite Jackson’s 121 rushing yards and Isaiah West’s 65 yards, OSU settles for three field goals and cannot convert key third‑downs. Coach Ryan Day’s conservative play calling and lack of urgency under rain seal the loss.
