Manchester United spent one hundred and fifty million pounds reshaping their midfield this summer, and now the real question falls to Michael Carrick — who actually plays? Carrick insists there's balance in the squad, but with that kind of investment, the pressure to deliver a starting eleven that justifies every penny is immediate and unforgiving.
Shifting to college football, and LSU has made a calculated move ahead of their season opener against Clemson, leaving former NFL players Dae'Quan Wright and Zxavian Harris completely off the official roster. The SEC passed a rule barring that kind of eligibility, and the Tigers appear to be sidestepping a direct confrontation with the conference before the biggest game of opening weekend. Watch this one closely — it's far from over.
And out in Texas, the Longhorns are opening the doors on their brand new eighty million dollar football training complex in Austin. Head coach Steve Sarkisian has been building toward this moment for years, and with the facility now live, Texas is making a very loud statement about where this program intends to go in the seasons ahead.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
