    Chaos Saturday: No. 1 Falls, Clock Error, Arch Exposed, Rays Tie ALCS
    18 Oct 2026
    Jim Rand breaks down the biggest sports stakes on The Rand Report: Sports. Saturday delivered historic college football chaos as five of the top seven teams lost for the first time ever. Auburn walked into Athens and beat No. 1 Georgia 27-24 on a walk-off field goal after out-physicaling the Dawgs. BYU upset No. 2 Notre Dame 28-24, but the Big 12 already admitted a clock error that should have given the Irish one more play. Florida shut down Arch Manning and upset No. 7 Texas 27-24 at home, forcing Steve Sarkisian to evaluate everything. In the ALCS the Rays evened the series 2-2 after Chase DeLauter owned a costly seventh-inning error. High-energy analysis that cuts through the hype and focuses on competition, accountability, and toughness. 🗣️ Check out other great shows! 🎙️ **The Odyssey: Short & Engaging Retellings** A modern, vivid retelling of Homer’s epic poem — one book at a time.
