Conner Weigman led Houston to a hard-fought Texas Bowl win vs. LSU. USA TODAY provided updates from the Cougars' win:
Berry was a five-star recruit and the No. 1 running back in the country in the 2025 class, according to the 247Sports composite rankings. He was a priority for Kiffin’s new staff, and his return gives LSU a promising player to build around heading into the 2026 season.
College football announcer Greg McElroy made a rather unfortunate slip on Thursday. The ex-Jets quarterback accidentally referred to Ole Miss running back Kewan Lacy as Kyren Lacy, the former LSU receiver who died via suicide last April, during the Rebels’ 39-34 upset of Georgia.
The No. 6-seeded Rebels (13-1) beat No. 3 seed Georgia (12-2) in the Sugar Bowl 39-34 at Caesars Superdome on Jan. 1. With the quarterfinal win, Ole Miss advances to the Fiesta Bowl, where it will play No.
