Colin Simmons had himself a moment in Austin on Saturday, and the officials made sure he knew it. The Texas defensive end sacked Tennessee quarterback Faizon Brandon, then decided to mime urinating on the field — earning an unsportsmanlike conduct flag and a story he'll be telling for years, probably not all of them fondly.

Meanwhile in Lubbock, Texas Tech linebacker Austin Romaine put on one of the most remarkable individual performances you'll see on a football field. Romaine returned two interceptions for touchdowns on back-to-back passes thrown by Sam Houston, turning consecutive drives into a personal highlight reel and a nightmare the Sam Houston offense won't forget quickly.

And shifting to the pros, the New York Giants are making moves at quarterback, with reports linking them to trade talks involving veterans from both the Titans and the Steelers. With Jameis Winston under center, the Giants are apparently not content to sit still, and general manager Joe Schoen is looking for insurance behind him heading deeper into the season.

That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
