ALABAMA STUNNED AS OKLAHOMA SEALS DRAMATIC 23-21 WIN AT BRYANT-DENNY

On Saturday, Oklahoma came to town to play the Crimson Tide in a crucial game that may decide the SEC championship and college football playoff berths.
The Tide had a clumsy offensive start to the game, going three-and-out on their opening two drives while Oklahoma punted and kicked a field goal on their first two possessions.
Late in the first quarter, Ty Simpson and the Tide offence were moving down the field and were inside the Oklahoma 30-yard line. However, the Oklahoma defence intercepted Simpson and took it all the way to the house for a pick-6.
Simpson led his offence on a 12-play, 72-yard drive that took more than 6:00 off the clock, culminating in a 1-yard touchdown run by Daniel Hill for the Tide's first points of the game. This drive marked the return of the Tide offence to its regularly scheduled programming on the first drive of the second quarter.
The Alabama wide receiver Ryan Williams coughed up the ball on the subsequent punt return, which was recovered by the Sooners' special teams unit deep into Alabama territory, but the Bama defence moved swiftly off the field on their subsequent possession. Oklahoma's lead over Alabama inside Bryant-Denny was increased to 17-7 just two plays later when quarterback John Mateer rushed 20 yards up the middle and into the score zone.
The Sooners' lead was swiftly reduced, though, as Simpson and his offensive unit went on a 6-play, 78-yard drive in which he hit Ryan Williams and Germie Bernard through the air to move the offence down the field before connecting with tight end Josh Cuevas for a Tide touchdown.
Alabama had an opportunity to either tie the game or take the lead going into the half after recovering the ball from a Sooners punt.
But as time ran down before halftime, a 13-play drive was wasted due to a high snap and a missed field goal by Bama, leaving Oklahoma ahead 17–14.
Halfway through the third quarter, Alabama took its first lead of the game, 21-20, as Daniel Hill scored his second touchdown run of the game in response to an early field goal by the Sooners in the second half.
After a few punts back and forth between the two teams, the game took a significant turn.
Simpson and the Tide offence attempted to prolong their drive on a 3rd & 9 late in the third quarter with the ball on their own 31-yard line, but the Tide's story of the day was yet another turnover.
After Simpson strip-sacked at the 31-yard line, the Sooners recovered the ball and scored a 24-yard field goal from Tate Sandell five plays later, regaining the lead 23–21.
With just over seven minutes left in the game, Alabama regained possession of the ball after the two teams traded punts.
With 50 seconds remaining in the game, the Tide faced a 4th & 6 on their own 48-yard line after running 13 plays and taking more than 6:00 off the clock.
The ball was turned over on downs when Tide quarterback Ty Simpson tried to target Ryan Williams at the first down marker, but the pass was broken up and went incomplete.
After that, Oklahoma ran out the time and won 23–21 after kneeling the ball twice.
Next week, Alabama will return to action against Eastern Illinois.

Luke Littler advanced to the Wolverhampton semi-finals on Saturday night after defeating Josh Rock in a captivating Grand Slam of Darts match.
Before Warrington's 18-year-old world champion Littler got his winning rhythm in the closing moments, the excellent fight went back and forth.
In their two prior matches, Rock jumped out to significant early leads before Littler rallied to win the World Matchplay semi-final in Blackpool and the Flanders Darts Trophy Final in Belgium during the summer.
This time, however, it was evens-stevens, and "The Nuke" took the lead 2-1 after breaking out on 96 in 11 darts.
Rock responded with scores of 82 and 84 to lead 3-2 at the first break.
The two previous world youth champions missed a checkout dart to secure a break of throw, but the next five legs all went to throw.
Littler was the first to falter at 6-6 as Rock increased the score and won three consecutive legs.
Littler missed five double strokes during his break in the 14th, which appeared to be a crucial time.
When they returned from the intermission, Littler had to answer, and he did it by taking the next SEVEN legs!
After Rock missed four doubles, Littler finished with a score of 71, securing a key break of throw. "The Nuke" then responded with a checkout of 74.
Holding throw levelled the score, and he took the lead at 11–9 with checkouts of 90 and 96.
Littler did not back down after the break, breaking throw again with an 81 finish.
He then held throw to extend his lead to 13-9, but Littler missed a double for a checkout of 108, allowing Rock to make a comeback.
Suddenly, the gap had closed to two legs when Rock finished on 98.
With finishes of 86 and 81, Littler and Rock broke each other, bringing the score to 14–12.
Then, with the darts in hand, he was just one leg away after another 81 finish from Littler.
In the final leg, he missed four doubles, but he was so far ahead that Rock couldn't finish.
Littler said on Sky Sports, "I guess I started the game throwing normally and found myself trailing."
At 9–6 down, I told myself to "stop chasing the game" and shifted slightly to the left.
I adjusted the timing of every shot and slowed my throwdown. I couldn't have asked for more as the game came to a close.
"I was giving myself total hell as soon as I got off those steps at 9-6 down," he continued. "I was talking to myself, and you do not want to know."
"But I rallied and won the next five legs after falling behind 9–6. After that, I took the lead by slowing down my throw and improving the timing of every shot, which was incredibly beneficial.
"Josh and I consistently bring out the best in one another. However, it is another game, another victory, and I have not lost here in two years."
Luke Humphries and Gerwyn Price will square off in the other last-four match, while Littler will take on Danny Noppert in the semi-final on Sunday afternoon.
JOE DUMARS AXES COACH WILLIE GREEN SEEKING URGENCY IN STRUGGLING PELICANS
The New Orleans Pelicans have fired head coach Willie Green after a disastrous 2-10 start to the NBA season. Executive Joe Dumars cited a lack of competitive spirit and repetitive losses as the reason.

Executive vice president Joe Dumars of the New Orleans Pelicans revealed on Saturday that coach Willie Green had been sacked following the team's dreadful 2-10 NBA season start.
Dumars, a two-time NBA champion who joined the Pelicans in April, stated, "I wanted the team to compete hard every night."
"It is hardly progress if we continue to lose in the same manner.
"As a team, you must first establish that before you can become anything in this league. In remarks on the Pelicans website, Dumars stated, "It was that judgment (that resulted in a change) more than identity, more than offence or defence, and more than won-loss record."
Due to injuries to important players, the Pelicans had a 0–6 start to the season. Zion Williamson, a star big man, has only participated in five games due to a hamstring ailment, which has prevented him from playing for four consecutive seasons.
Dejounte Murray is currently recuperating from a damaged Achilles tendon sustained in January of last year, and Jordan Poole missed games due to a quadriceps ailment.
To begin the season, New Orleans let up at least 120 points in five consecutive games and lost three of their first six games by a margin of at least 30 points.
They suffered their fourth consecutive loss on Friday, falling to the Los Angeles Lakers 118-104.
The temporary coach will be James Borrego, an assistant. In 2024, Borrego, the former Charlotte Hornets head coach, was given consideration for head coaching positions with the Cleveland Cavaliers and the Lakers.
Borrego will likely be in charge for the rest of the season, according to Dumars.
