LAuburn's 71-game non-conference win streak is DEAD. Arizona walked into their building and ended it.
MWait, 71 games? That's not a streak, that's a dynasty. And Arizona just snapped it on the road?
LThat's what ESPN is posting. First SEC road win for Arizona since Missouri in 2016.
MHold on. Arizona's in the Big 12, not the SEC. That line makes no sense.
LYou're right, the SEC part is confusing. But the streak ending? That's real.
MAuburn hadn't lost a non-conference game in YEARS. That's the kind of run that makes you forget what losing feels like.
LAnd now they've got to sit with it all weekend. Brutal.
MSpeaking of brutal, the FAA ground stop had college football teams scrambling for flights today.
LCBS Sports says the nationwide stoppage got lifted, but Week 11 travel plans are a mess.
MImagine being a team manager right now. Buses, trains, whatever you can find.
LAnd these are big programs with chartered flights. If they're scrambling, everyone's scrambling.
MThe good news? The order's lifted. The bad news? Some teams might be rolling into town at 3 AM.
LThat's a real disadvantage. You can't play your best on four hours of sleep and a bus seat.
MNo, you can't. And in a rivalry game? Forget it.
LDifferent world entirely: UFC 334 is tomorrow night, and Josh Hokit's story is wild.
MCBS Sports has a feature on him. One year ago he was on the early prelims. Now he's fighting Ciryl Gane for the heavyweight title.
LThat's not a rise, that's a rocket. Gane is a former interim champ.
MAnd Hokit's got a real shot. Heavyweight is chaos right now.
LI love it. A guy nobody saw coming, one win away from being a superstar.
MAnd Stephen Thompson's retiring this weekend too. Wonderboy's last fight at the site of his most famous one.
LThat's a legend walking away. You've got to respect it.
MAbsolutely. Two very different stories, same card. That's why you watch.
LNow, the NBA's official account is posting some wild numbers tonight.
MThey say Giannis and Bam both had big scoring nights in Miami's group play win.
LIf that's true, they'd be joining rare Heat company. LeBron and Wade did it back in the day.
MThat's elite company. But I haven't seen independent confirmation yet.
LThe NBA account posted it, so it's probably solid. But yeah, let's see the box score.
MAnd they're also saying Sengun had a huge night for Houston. That would be a career best.
LHis season high in available data was 36. If he topped that, it's a statement.
MBut again, no independent source yet. The NBA account is hyping it, but I want the official box score.
LFair. But if both of these are real, Friday night was a scoring explosion.
MAnd the Spurs are pushing for another straight win. Wemby lob to Castle for the reverse slam.
LThey had nine straight as of Nov. 9 last week. Two more wins would get them to 11, but that's unconfirmed.
MThat's a team that's figured something out. Wemby's playing like an MVP.
LAnd Castle's right there with him. That lob was nasty.
MThe Grizzlies also had a franchise-record 10 players in double figures tonight.
LTen players? That's not a rotation, that's a whole roster.
MJerami Grant and Ty Jerome led the way, according to that same account.
LThe NBA account is firing off numbers left and right tonight. Some of them might be a little ahead of the official stats.
MAnd that's the thing. We love the hype, but we check the numbers.
LAlways. Now, over on X, the Messi versus Ronaldo debate is heating up again.
MOne account posted their favorite opponents by competition. Messi's list includes Nashville in MLS.
LRonaldo's list has Atletico Madrid in the Champions League. That's a rivalry.
MThese lists are fun, but they're not exactly scientific.
LNo, but they start arguments. And that's what we're here for.
MAnother account claims Messi had 62 successful dribbles in the 2026 MLS season.
LThe account says Ronaldo had 90 in the 2007-08 Premier League alone. Plus 36 more in the Champions League that season.
MThose numbers are unverified, but if they're close, Ronaldo's peak was different.
LDifferent era, different league, different player. You can't compare them straight up.
MBut people will. They always do.
LAnd Alan Shearer's out here saying Pochettino lacks the pedigree to win titles.
MShearer's not wrong about the Premier League. Poch won the league with PSG, but that's PSG.
LWinning Ligue 1 with PSG is like winning a race with a head start.
MHarsh but fair. The Manchester United rumors are swirling again.
LPoch at United? I don't see it. He's a good coach, but that job needs a title winner.
MAnd Shearer's point is exactly that. Good coach, no pedigree.
LIt's a brutal business. One bad season and you're out.
MAnd one good season and you're the next big thing. Just ask Josh Hokit.
LThat's the beauty of sports. One year can change everything.
MAlright, we've got a lot more coming up. The college football travel chaos, the NBA scoring explosion, and UFC 334.
LPlus, we're keeping an eye on those official box scores. If Sengun really dropped 41, we'll be talking about it all night.
