In Norman, the fan base is turning on their quarterback. John Mateer had an absolute nightmare first half against Georgia, throwing three turnovers that had Oklahoma supporters calling for him to be pulled from the game. When you give the ball away three times before halftime against a program like Georgia, the noise around your job gets loud fast.
Shifting to college football's most electric moment of the week, Texas edge rusher Colin Simmons was simply unguardable against Tennessee. The freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon had no answers as Simmons racked up five sacks and eight total tackles in the Longhorns' twenty to seventeen win. He also picked up a penalty for relieving himself on the field, which, yes, made national headlines alongside the historic pass-rushing performance.
And across the Atlantic, Harry Kane is putting a positive spin on a painful result. England dropped a three to two decision to world champion Spain in the Nations League at Wembley, with Kane missing a penalty in the defeat. Thomas Tuchel's side gave up an early gift goal but fought back, and Kane insists the performance level was among England's best in a long time.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
