Hurricane — Update — Because It’s What We Do On The Weekend — ABC — October 7, 2023

Absolutely nada. Nothing. Zilch. No hurricane activity.

And there’s (another) war in the Mideast.

College Football
Upset

Oklahoma, #12 - at - Texas, #3.

Red River Rivalry - #119.

30 - 27 with 1:06 left in the game. OU Sooners behind by three points

Down the field they "march,"  OU Sooners TD with six seconds left in the game. OU go ahead 34 - 30.

With 0:06 left in the game, two time-outs for Texas from deep in their territory.

Short 10-yard pass and out of bounds. Two seconds left.

Hail Mary ... six OU defenders standing on the goal line. Five Texas receivers downfield. Long ball -- just over the goal line. 

Batted down.

No interference. No flag. No nothing. Just the win.

OU: 34.

NASCAR - Junior Varsity
 
Status: stage 2, with ten to go.
 
This is why NASCAR is dying. We've talked about this before. We have Hulu. It took a special effort to find the race, being aired on NBC. Hulu has to know that I love racing. As soon as I went to "home," Hulu needed to load the race (streaming) as the default option. But no, I had to go through a dozen colelge football games and B-movies before I was able to ffnd NASCAR.

Charlotte. We're in the playoffs -- four will be eliminated today, going from group of 12 to group of 8 and yet the stands are relatively empty. This is the one sport where participants outnumber folks in the stands. The big question: do number of folks in the infield outnumber the folks in the stands?

As for the race, on the bubble, #8, Creed, up 5 points. Hemric, driver of car #10, is five points behind the opportunity to advance.

 

Texas: 30 and sad face.
