STANFORD Ben Gulbranson's first two games at Stanford could hardly have been worse a combined 251 yards on 62 attempts, with three interceptions and no touchdowns. But the Oregon State transfer turned a corner just in time to lead the Cardinal to victory in the Bill Walsh Legacy Game. Gulbranson threw for 444 yards, the third-most in Stanford history, and engineered an 80-yard touchdown drive in the final two minutes as the Cardinal beat San Jose State 30-29 Saturday night at Stanford Stadium.
The New York Islanders pulled off a massive comeback win against their crosstown rivals, the New York Rangers, on Thursday. After blowing a 2-0 lead, the Isles surrendered four unanswered goals to go down 4-2. But then, the Rangers fell apart in the third period, giving up a three-spot. The Islanders gritted out a gutsy, 5-4 win. The key to the Isles' victory came on two goals from camp hopeful Gleb Veremyev. The 22-year-old scored twice, including the equalizer at the 15:17 mark of the third period. Veremyev's second goal of the night capped off an impressive showing for the undrafted NCAA star.
Leading 24-17 with less than seven minutes to go, Darnold and the Seahawks faced a third-and-9 from their own 28, needing to move the chains if they didn't want to give Aaron Rodgers and the Steelers solid field position for a potential tying drive. Seattle got the shotgun snap off with one second left on the play clock but failed to pick up blitzing linebacker Patrick Queen.
BOSTON (AP) - Alex Bregman legged out an hard chopper down the third-base line for an infield single with two outs in the eighth inning to drive in the go-ahead run, and the Boston Red Sox beat the Cleveland Guardians 11-7 for their third straight victory. Jarren Duran and Trevor Story followed with RBI doubles off Cade Smith (6-6) for Boston's second four-run inning of the game. Justin Slaten (2-4) earned the win with a perfect eighth inning.
But after Levante took a 2-0 lead into the break -- thanks to an Iván Romero strike and a José Luis Morales penalty -- Flick went back to a more familiar Barça side at half-time, replacing Rashford and Casadó with Dani Olmo and Gavi. Pedri and Torres were on target early in the second half as Barça levelled the game, with Unai Elgezabal heading in a stoppage-time own goal after good work from Lamine Yamal on the right wing to complete the turnaround.
