Well, speculation intensified on Saturday as it was revealed the Red Devils had sent a scout to keep tabs on the World Cup qualifier between Austria and Republic of Ireland. A representative from Jose Mourinho’s side was included amongst a list of several scouts from other clubs including Bayer Leverkusen, Celtic and Marseille. But who is United running the rule over at the Ernst Happel Stadion? Rumors have certainly started to swirl with two names the English side has been regularly linked with in the past set to take part in the match....
Though the Crimson Tide’s 2022 draft class won’t be as top-heavy as in recent years, this group has plenty of talent who project as first-, second- and third-round picks. Depending on how NFL teams draft, Alabama could produce yet another group with 10 or more draftees.

Ahead of Alabama’s matchup against Georgia in the title game, running back Bo Scarbrough could be seen (and heard) yelling “F— Trump” while the Tide walked off the field after pregame warmups. MORE: Alabama vs. Georgia: Live updates, scores It will be interesting to see what ramifications — if any — Scarbrough faces for his comments. For his part, Bo denies making that specific comment; he insists he said ‘F— Georgia....
The guys in Vegas and other locales have made the Buckeyes a sizable underdog for their College Football Playoff national championship game against Alabama on Jan. 11. The early point spread has Ohio State getting seven points from the Crimson Tide, according to The Action Network. Of course, the Bucks were a similar-sized ‘dog in their Sugar Bowl semifinal game Friday night against No. 2 Clemson; they got 7.5 from the Tigers....
The Volunteers needed a heroic performance from quarterback Hendon Hooker and receiver Jalin Hyatt, but it was kicker Chase McGrath’s 40-yard field goal on the final play of the game that gave Tennessee the 52-49 victory. Hooker and Hyatt were nearly unstoppable for Tennessee, connecting for six catches, 207 yards and five touchdowns. Hooker finished the day completing 21 of 30 passes for 385 yards and five touchdowns to one interception....
Game time is scheduled for 3:30 p.m. ET, and it will be televised on CBS. Alabama (6-0) has not lost the Third Saturday in October to its traditional SEC rival under Nick Saban. That’s a 15-game winning streak in the series, and the Crimson Tide is favored to extend that series. Of course, that could hinge on the health of quarterback Bryce Young, who missed last week’s 24-20 victory against Texas A&M with a shoulder injury....
Two of the biggest names to do so are Sven-Goran Eriksson and Sam Allardyce. However, both of them are unlikely to get the mantle from Stephen Constantine to lead India. According to the sources, Sam Allardyce did express interest for the role through his client but, the AIFF has not received a duly filled application form from him yet. Since Friday was the last date to pitch one’s name, it is unlikely that Sam Allardyce would be the next head coach of the Indian football team....
Biden’s transition team issued a statement just days after he was named president-elect in November which reiterated he “opposes the death penalty now and in the future.” But Biden never stated if there would be immediate action to halt federal executions once he took office, even as his predecessor carried out a record number during his final weeks in office. Former President Donald Trump’s administration resumed capital punishment on the federal level in 2020 for the first time in 17 years and ultimately oversaw more executions than any president in more than 120 years....
What the NCAA stated: agents who wished to be certified by the organization for involvement with those college athletes exploring their NBA draft prospects but not forfeiting eligibility would need to meet a series of requirements, including a college degree. The existence of this memo initially was reported last Tuesday by Jon Rothstein of CBS Sports. James decided the degree requirement was aimed at his agent, Rich Paul, and James’ reach turned this into a major topic....

Wellington Blaze have had a fantastic season so far, winning all six of their games to sit atop the points table. Leigh Kasperek and Jess Kerr lead their bowling attack, while Rebecca Burns and Maddy Green have been outstanding with the bat. Auckland Hearts, on the other hand, are coming off a seven-wicket victory over Central Hinds, thanks to outstanding performances from Prue Catton and Amie Hucker. They will look to put on another strong performance to break through the fortified fortress of the Wellington Blaze....
Nick Ahmed hit a tiebreaking single in the seventh after Godley allowed a run over six innings, and the Diamondbacks beat the Atlanta Braves 2-1 on Friday night. Both teams began the week in first place but have since fallen out. The Diamondbacks began the night a half game behind the Dodgers in the NL West. The Braves, who have lost seven of their last nine, fell 1 ½ games behind NL East-leading Philadelphia....
Justin Faulk also had a goal and an assist, Justin Williams and Jordan Staal scored, and Andrei Svechnikov added an empty-netter for Carolina. Nino Niederreiter and Teuvo Teravainen each had two assists. Curtis McElhinney stopped 21 shots for the Hurricanes, who have vaulted into playoff contention by earning 41 points since Dec. 30. They have won four straight and improved to 13-3-1 in their last 17 games. Vince Dunn had a goal and an assist, with Oskar Sundqvist deflecting in one of his shots, and Robert Thomas had two assists for the Blues — who have been just as hot, with 40 points since Jan....
The researchers’ findings at IIT Mandi have been recognised and published in the Journal of Cleaner Production. Drs. Atul Dhar and Sarvasheel Powar have contributed to the publication. They are both Associate Professors at IIT Mandi’s School of Engineering. The researchers’ influence was from EF Schumacher’s concept of “Appropriate Technology.” According to this notion, every choice should be congruent with a society’s socio-cultural, political and economic structures. Satvasheel Powar said, “While the choice of water treatment methods for a particular society was based on human intuition in the past, such an approach is no longer valid given the magnitude of the activity, the range of techniques available, the complexity of socio-economic fabric of today’s society, and several conflicting criteria that must be considered....
Tigray is contending with the worst hunger crisis the world has seen in a decade. The United States said that up to 900,000 people from the region endure famine conditions. It was not immediately clear who was responsible for the bridge’s destruction, but the loss disrupted a leading supply line between Amhara-occupied western Tigray and the rest of the region. Aid groups have been investigating whether other key bridges have been destroyed, while the Ethiopian government has restricted aircraft from flying in the Tigray airspace below 29,000 feet, a U....
The new finding was largely an accident. Human infants often test positive after ingesting vaginal secretions during delivery. Researchers suspected that the newborns lacked the stomach acid to kill the virus. But when they placed SIV (the simian AIDS virus) in the mouths of adult monkeys, the animals were easily infected. And the dose required to infect them orally – though far higher than what you’d find in saliva – was 6,000 times lower than the dose required for rectal infection....
