Getting whipped by a downtrodden Oklahoma squad came back to haunt Alabama. So did a historic loss to Vanderbilt. That's because the Crimson Tide (9-3) were passed over for the inaugural 12-team College Football Playoff when the selections were announced on Sunday. Alabama appeared in good shape to make the playoffs until visiting the Sooners and losing 24-3 on Nov. 23. Oklahoma finished the regular season with a 6-6 mark. SMU (11-2) earned the final at-large spot despite losing to Clemson 34-31 in the Atlantic Coast Conference title game on Saturday night. "I think it's the right decision," Mustangs coach Rhett Lashlee told CBS Sports said. "... We didn't ever have a bad loss." Selection committee chairman Warde Manuel said it was a tough choice to take the Mustangs over the Crimson Tide. "We looked at the number of wins Alabama had against ranked opponents," Manuel, the Michigan athletic director, told ESPN. "We looked at SMU's schedule and they were undefeated in conference. Their losses were to ranked teams. "We also looked at Alabama's losses to unranked teams. It was quite a debate. We value strength of schedule and that's why Alabama as a three-loss team is ranked ahead of teams that have two losses." SMU's loss to then-No. 17 Clemson came on a last-second field goal in Saturday night's Atlantic Coast Conference title game. The Mustangs also lost 18-15 at BYU on Sept. 6. SMU beat then-No. 22 Louisville on the road and then-No. 18 Pitt in Dallas. "Losing on a last-second field goal ... we felt SMU still had the nod over Alabama," Manuel said of the Mustangs' loss to Clemson. "... It's just looking at the entire body of work over both teams." Alabama's other two losses included the shocking 40-35 stumble at Vanderbilt on Oct. 5 that marked the Commodores' first-ever win over a No. 1-ranked team. The Crimson Tide also lost 24-17 to then-No. 11 Tennessee on Oct. 19. The Crimson Tide posted three ranked victories, beating then-No. 2 Georgia, then-No. 21 Missouri and then-No. 15 LSU. Alabama will face Michigan in the ReliaQuest Bowl in Tampa on Dec. 31. It is a rematch from last season when the Wolverines defeated the Crimson Tide 27-20 in the College Football Playoff semifinal game at the Rose Bowl. The second team out was No. 13 Miami (10-2), which saw its chances plummet by losing two of its last three regular-season games. The Hurricanes, who started 9-0, lost 28-23 to host Georgia Tech on Nov. 9 and completed the regular season with a 42-38 road loss against Syracuse. Miami didn't play a Top 25 team this season. Instead of navigating the playoff field, Miami will face No. 18 Iowa State in the Pop-Tarts Bowl in Orlando on Dec. 28. "Everyone that doesn't get in feels disappointment," Miami coach Mario Cristobal said of being passed over. "We will have the onus of just doing better. Go forward and have the opportunity to get better. ... "We have a ton to play for and we'll thankful for the opportunity." SMU plays No. 6 Penn State in its first-round playoff game on Nov. 21. "We're excited about the challenge and the opportunity to prove that the committee made the right decision," Lashlee said. --Field Level MediaB. Metzler seel. Sohn & Co.

The controversial Australian has played only one match in more than two years because of injury but that has not stopped him being an outspoken presence on social media during a difficult few months for the sport. First it was announced in August that Sinner had failed two doping tests in March but was cleared of fault, while in November Swiatek was handed a one-month ban for a failed test caused by contaminated medication. Feels good getting these consecutive days training in the bank man.... Wrist re construction and back out here... blessed..................Without failing any drug tests 🙂↕️🙏🏽 be proud kygs doing it the right way 😩😂 pic.twitter.com/J8l21lnTdI — Nicholas Kyrgios (@NickKyrgios) December 5, 2024 Kyrgios has been particularly vociferous in his criticism of Sinner, who could yet face a ban after the World Anti-Doping Agency appealed the finding of no fault or negligence in his case. At a press conference ahead of the Brisbane International, Kyrgios told reporters: “I have to be outspoken about it because I don’t think there’s enough people that are speaking about it. I think people are trying to sweep it under the rug. “I just think that it’s been handled horrifically in our sport. Two world number ones both getting done for doping is disgusting for our sport. It’s a horrible look. “The tennis integrity right now – and everyone knows it, but no one wants to speak about it – it’s awful. It’s actually awful. And it’s not OK.” Kyrgios initially underwent knee surgery in January 2023, returning to action in June of that year, but he played only one match before pulling out of Wimbledon due to a torn ligament in his right wrist. He has not played a competitive match since, and it appeared doubtful that he would be able to return, but the 29-year-old will make his comeback in Brisbane this week. Kyrgios will take on France’s Giovanni Mpetshi Perricard in singles, while he will also team up with Novak Djokovic in a blockbuster doubles pairing. “It’s good to be back,” said Kyrgios. “I honestly never thought I’d be back playing at this level. Even entering an event like this, preparing, doing all the right things. A post shared by Nick Kyrgios (@k1ngkyrg1os) “I’m really excited to just go out there and play, just play tennis. I saw Novak in the gym, playing doubles with him, a lot to be excited about that I’m able to get out there and compete again.” Asked whether he could get back to the same level that saw him reach the Wimbledon final in 2022, Kyrgios said: “I still believe I can, whether or not that’s factual or not. There was another player who was like, ‘You have to be realistic’. That’s not how I am. I always back my ability.” The new tennis season is already under way, with the United Cup team event beginning on Friday. Great Britain, who are weakened by the absence of Jack Draper through injury, begin their campaign against Argentina in Sydney on Monday before facing hosts Australia on Wednesday. That could pit Katie Boulter against fiance Alex De Minaur, with the pair having announced their engagement last week. A post shared by Katie Boulter (@katiecboulter) “Obviously some incredible news from our side, but I think we kind of wanted it to die down a little bit before matches started,” said Boulter of the timing. “My private life is out in the public a little bit at the moment. But, in terms of the stuff that I’m doing on the court, I’ll be doing the best I can every single day to stay in my own little bubble.” Billy Harris has taken Draper’s place, with the British number one facing a race against time to be fit for the Australian Open because of a hip problem. Emma Raducanu is the sixth seed at the ASB Classic in Auckland and will begin her season with a match against Robin Montgomery, while Cameron Norrie takes on another American, Learner Tien, at the Hong Kong Open.WASHINGTON — Donald Trump said he can’t guarantee that his promised tariffs on key U.S. foreign trade partners won’t raise prices for American consumers and he suggested once more that some political rivals and federal officials who pursued legal cases against him should be imprisoned. The president-elect, in a wide-ranging interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that aired Sunday, also touched on monetary policy, immigration, abortion and health care, and U.S. involvement in Ukraine, Israel and elsewhere. Trump often mixed declarative statements with caveats, at one point cautioning “things do change.” A look at some of the issues covered: Trump has threatened broad trade penalties, but said he didn’t believe economists’ predictions that added costs on those imported goods for American companies would lead to higher domestic prices for consumers. He stopped short of a pledge that U.S. an households won’t be paying more as they shop. “I can’t guarantee anything. I can’t guarantee tomorrow,” Trump said, seeming to open the door to accepting the reality of how import levies typically work as goods reach the retail market. That’s a different approach from Trump’s typical speeches throughout the 2024 campaign, when he framed his election as a sure way to curb inflation. In the interview, Trump defended tariffs generally, saying that tariffs are “going to make us rich.” He has pledged that, on his first day in office in January, he would impose 25% tariffs on all goods imported from Mexico and Canada unless those countries satisfactorily stop illegal immigration and the flow of illegal drugs such as fentanyl into the United States. He also has threatened tariffs on China to help force that country to crack down on fentanyl production. ”All I want to do is I want to have a level, fast, but fair playing field,” Trump said. He offered conflicting statements on how he would approach the justice system after winning election despite being convicted of 34 felonies in a New York state court and being indicted in other cases for his handling of national security secrets and efforts to overturn his 2020 loss to Democrat Joe Biden. “Honestly, they should go to jail,” Trump said of members of Congress who investigated the Capitol riot by his supporters who wanted him to remain in power. The president-elect underscored his contention that he can use the justice system against others, including special prosecutor Jack Smith, who led the case on Trump’s role in the siege on Jan. 6, 2021. Trump confirmed his plan to pardon supporters who were convicted for their roles in the riot, saying he would take that action on his first day in office. As for the idea of revenge driving potential prosecutions, Trump said: “I have the absolute right. I’m the chief law enforcement officer, you do know that. I’m the president. But I’m not interested in that.” At the same time, Trump singled out lawmakers on a special House committee who had investigated the insurrection, citing Rep. Bennie Thompson, D-Miss., and former Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo. “Cheney was behind it ... so was Bennie Thompson and everybody on that committee,” Trump said. Asked specifically whether he would direct his administration to pursue cases, he said, “No,” and suggested he did not expect the FBI to quickly undertake investigations into his political enemies. But at another point, Trump said he would leave the matter up to Pam Bondi, his pick as attorney general. “I want her to do what she wants to do,” he said. Such threats, regardless of Trump’s inconsistencies, have been taken seriously enough by many top Democrats that Biden is considering issuing blanket, preemptive pardons to protect key members of his outgoing administration. Trump did seemingly back off his campaign rhetoric calling for Biden to be investigated, saying, “I’m not looking to go back into the past.” Trump repeatedly mentioned his promises to seal the U.S.-Mexico border and deport millions of people who are in the U.S. illegally through a mass deportation program. “I think you have to do it,” he said. He suggested he would try to use executive action to end “birthright” citizenship under which people born in the U.S. are considered citizens — although such protections are spelled out in the Constitution. Asked specifically about the future for people who were brought into the country illegally as children and have been shielded from deportation in recent years, Trump said, “I want to work something out,” indicating he might seek a solution with Congress. But Trump also said he does not “want to be breaking up families” of mixed legal status, “so the only way you don’t break up the family is you keep them together and you have to send them all back.” Long a critic of NATO members for not spending more on their own defense, Trump said he “absolutely” would remain in the alliance “if they pay their bills.” Pressed on whether he would withdraw if he were dissatisfied with allies’ commitments, Trump said he wants the U.S. treated “fairly” on trade and defense. He waffled on a NATO priority of containing Russia and President Vladimir Putin. Trump suggested Ukraine should prepare for less U.S. aid in its defense against Putin’s invasion. “Possibly. Yeah, probably. Sure,” Trump said of reducing Ukraine assistance from Washington. Separately, Trump has called for an immediate cease-fire. Asked about Putin, Trump said initially that he has not talked to the Russian leader since Election Day last month, but then hedged: “I haven’t spoken to him recently.” Trump said when pressed, adding that he did not want to “impede the negotiation.” The president-elect said he has no intention, at least for now, of asking Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell to step down before Powell’s term ends in 2028. Trump said during the campaign that presidents should have more say in Fed policy, including interest rates. Trump did not offer any job assurances for FBI Director Christopher Wray, whose term is to end in 2027. Asked about Wray, Trump said: “Well, I mean, it would sort of seem pretty obvious” that if the Senate confirms Kash Patel as Trump’s pick for FBI chief, then “he’s going to be taking somebody’s place, right? Somebody is the man that you’re talking about.” Trump promised that the government efficiency effort led by Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy will not threaten Social Security. “We’re not touching Social Security, other than we make it more efficient,” he said. He added that “we’re not raising ages or any of that stuff.” He was not so specific about abortion or his long-promised overhaul of the Affordable Care Act. On abortion, Trump continued his inconsistencies and said he would “probably” not move to restrict access to the abortion pills that now account for a majority of pregnancy terminations, according to the Guttmacher Institute, which supports abortion rights. But pressed on whether he would commit to that position, Trump replied, “Well, I commit. I mean, are — things do — things change. I think they change.” Reprising a line from his Sept. 10 debate against Vice President Kamala Harris, Trump again said he had “concepts” of a plan to substitute for the 2010 Affordable Care Act, which he called “lousy health care.” He added a promise that any Trump version would maintain insurance protections for Americans with preexisting health conditions. He did not explain how such a design would be different from the status quo or how he could deliver on his desire for “better healthcare for less money.” Barrow reported from Atlanta.

Jrue Holiday was the focus of a "bold" and "risky" strategy by the Grizzlies. It worked, but the Celtics now hope other opponents try it.Growing up, I often heard the expression, "Pakistan stands at a crossroads" - a sentiment that remains as relevant today as ever. The need for harmony and justice has never been more pressing. Perhaps this time, the tipping point is in sight, offering us an opportunity to live by the principle of knowing one another across divisions before it's too late. The Quran reminds us: "O humankind! We have made you... into nations and tribes, so that you may get to know one another..." (Q. 49:13). While none of us chose our place or time in Pakistan's geography, we do choose how we use our position and influence. The events of my life, from my naive childhood to my reflections in twilight years, reveal a recurring pattern: crises born of misrule, selective or absent accountability, and sustained by fabricated narratives. I still remember the air raid sirens piercing the night during the 1965 war. As a child, I didn't understand what was happening, but I understood fear. My mother struggled to console me, often with the help of neighbours, while my grandmother turned to prayer, fearing for my uncle's life at the front lines. These memories were my earliest lessons in the insecurity of life. The years that followed only deepened this insecurity. I was yet to be born when Ayub Khan declared Martial Law, subverting the judiciary to legitimise his rule under the infamous Doctrine of Necessity. Later, he denied Fatima Jinnah, our Madar-e-Millat, her electoral victory. This precedent, set in Ayub's time, paved the way for decades of engineered democracy, socio-political-economic alienation of the masses, and indifference to grievances that bred micro-aggressions - issues that haunt Pakistan to this day. The 1970s brought even greater contradictions. Ayub handed power to Yahya Khan. Mujib's Awami League secured a clear electoral majority but was denied power. Protests erupted, turning into an insurgency in East Pakistan, while West Pakistan celebrated with songs like Jeevay Jeevay Pakistan. The government blamed Bengalis for the unrest, disregarding their sacrifices in the creation of Pakistan and the injustices they endured. Radio Pakistan spun tales of triumph, but elders turned to the BBC for the truth. Yahya's hedonism and Bhutto's contempt for Mujib's demands only deepened the divide. The fall of Dhaka in December 1971 was catastrophic: 93,000 soldiers became prisoners of war, and Pakistan suffered a permanent fracture. Elders criticised the egos of Yahya, Bhutto and Mujib, but no meaningful reckoning followed. Bhutto rose from the ashes of a divided nation, promising Islamic socialism but delivering authoritarianism. His infamous remark, Maien nahee yeh kursi mazboot hay (It's not me, but the chair that's strong), became a tragic epitaph after his ouster and execution by Zia-ul-Haq, following a trial the Supreme Court has recently acknowledged as compromised. As a college student, I witnessed firsthand the clashes between Bhutto's NSF and the IJT, an ideological battleground for political dominance. Zia's ban on student politics silenced this chaos but left a void in leadership development, replaced by dynasties and military influence. His promised 90-day transition to democracy stretched into Islamisation under Martial Law. What followed was a cycle of alternating governments of PPP and PML-N blaming each other for misrule, Musharraf's coup ending in disgrace, and Imran Khan's rise as a saviour yielding disappointment. Today, former rivals PPP and PML-N govern in a coalition supported by the military that once orchestrated their downfalls. Our political and military leaders come to power with saviour complexes. The unanswered question remains: How have they left Pakistan so dysfunctional? This is evident in dismal global rankings: corruption (133rd), rule of law (129th), political transformation (99th), governance (122nd) and passport strength (107th). With 84% of people living on less than $6.85 or Rs1,078 per day, the Human Development Index stands at a bleak 116. These statistics mirror a country caught in an unyielding cycle of power preservation, misrule, arbitrary accountability and lost potential. Our response to grievances has often been suppression rather than solutions, breeding insurgencies and resistance movements. The Baloch revolt, PNA against Bhutto, MRD against Zia, PDM against Imran, ethnic movements like MQM, Jeay Sindh and PTM, and the emergence of militant groups like TTP and BLA remain active. The turmoil in the country continues. As I reflect on the major events, I wonder: was there no other way? Bhutto hanged; Junejo, Nawaz and Benazir governments sacked; Benazir and Nawaz exiled; Musharraf ventured into Kargil and was then exiled; Altaf was exiled; JM Sayed died as a frustrated founding politician; Bugti was killed; Benazir was assassinated; and now Imran is in jail facing shallow, possibly treasonous charges. Once again, I witness soldiers and misguided civilians die in conflicts. Though all are strangers to me, their lost lives haunt me. The questions that plagued me during the 1971 war remain: When does patriotism demand questioning authority rather than blind allegiance? Why would the present setup yield a different outcome when predecessors have said and done the same? Will the judiciary take up the electoral fraud case - not for Imran's sake but for the citizens' right to vote? The sirens of crisis continue to sound, and we must respond with wisdom. My humble appeal is to Punjab and its intelligentsia because providence has placed them in a uniquely advantageous position, dominating the country's institutions: 173 out of 336 legislative seats, 15 of 18 ministers in the executive, 26 of 38 federal bureaucrats, 75% of the military, and 8 of 16 Supreme Court justices. This influence carries a profound responsibility: to lead the nation toward harmony, equity and justice, and to fulfil the vision of Pakistan's founders. It would be unjust not to acknowledge Punjab's leading sacrifices, especially the precious lives of its sons defending Pakistan's sovereignty. Punjab can lead too in nation's affairs by enabling a Platform for Reforms, starting with a "National Dialogue on Amnesty" to dissolve unrest and foster harmony among all disgruntled parties. It must lead fairness, transparency, protection of citizens' rights, merit-based institutional reforms and inclusive economic policies. The potential for real change rests with Punjab. Pakistan doesn't need dominance from its most powerful province - it needs leadership. COMMENTS Comments are moderated and generally will be posted if they are on-topic and not abusive.

South Korea’s president briefly declared martial law Tuesday, suspending civil rights, barricading parliament with troops, and putting media under government control. Lawmakers moved to quickly override it, and South Korea’s president said he would lift his declaration. Could such a constitutional crisis happen here in the United States? President-elect Donald Trump has shown some clear authoritarian tendencies . In his first term, he raised the idea of using martial law to stay in power after he lost reelection; he sent in the National Guard to disperse racial-justice protesters; and one of his last days in office, he refused for hours to call off his supporters as they attacked the Capitol.

By MICHELLE L. PRICE NEW YORK (AP) — Chad Chronister, Donald Trump’s pick to run the Drug Enforcement Administration, said Tuesday he was withdrawing his name from consideration, becoming the second person selected by the president-elect to bow out quickly after being nominated for a position requiring Senate confirmation. Sheriff Chronister, the top law enforcement officer in Hillsborough County, Florida, said in a post on X that he was backing away from the opportunity, which he called “the honor of a lifetime.” “Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration,” Chronister wrote. He did not elaborate, and Trump’s transition team did not immediately respond to a message seeking comment. Chronister follows former Republican congressman Matt Gaetz , Trump’s first pick to serve as attorney general, in withdrawing his name for a post in the administration. Gaetz withdrew following scrutiny over a federal sex trafficking investigation that cast doubt on his ability to be confirmed as the nation’s chief federal law enforcement officer. Trump’s pick of Chronister for the DEA job drew backlash from conservatives, who raised concerns over his actions during the COVID-19 pandemic and his saying that his office “does not engage in federal immigration enforcement activities.” In March 2020, Chronister arrested the pastor of a megachurch who held services with hundreds of people and violated a safer-at-home order in place aimed at limiting the spread of the Covid virus. “Shame on this pastor, their legal staff and the leaders of this staff for forcing us to do our job. That’s not what we wanted to do during a declared state of emergency,” Chronister said at the time. “We are hopeful that this will be a wakeup call.” U.S. Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky, was among those airing public complaints, saying Chronister should be “disqualified” for the arrest. Others flagged comments Chronister made in a video about Florida’s immigration laws that he released in 2023 that circulated again online after Trump named him last weekend.

We do not target individuals based on their immigration status. That’s the authority of federal agencies.” Trump has made a sweeping crackdown on immigration a central focus of his campaign and his aims for his coming administration.

An Italian renewable energy giant and Japan’s largest oil and gas company are plugging into Australia’s clean energy resources under the banner of a new company. Potentia Energy will be launched at the Sydney Opera House on Monday as an Australian renewable energy firm co-owned by Rome-headquartered Enel Green Power and INPEX. With rights in place for a development pipeline of over seven gigawatts across the country, Potentia is most focused on developing and acquiring assets in NSW, Queensland and Western Australia, chief executive Werther Esposito told AAP. The company is not deterred by the risk of political change, with opinion polls favouring the coalition ahead of the 2025 federal election. “The energy transition will go ahead in any case. There could be an acceleration or slowing down in the process,” Mr Esposito said. “Renewables represent, from a technical and economic perspective, the solution for climate change,” he said. “I don’t think any government could deny that today wind and solar are cheaper than other technologies, and are faster in reaching the phase of deployment and construction and then supply of renewable energy.” NSW had suffered some planning delays that had hit investment but there had been a “strong improvement” in the past 12 to 18 months, he said. The company also has a stake in Queensland, particularly in the north’s Copperstring area, where the recently elected LNP government has pledged to stick by a massive transmission project begun under Labor. Enel won the bidding in 2024 to develop renewable energy to power a vanadium mining and processing project, which is one of a number of giant resources projects intended to be connected to the $9 billion Copperstring transmission line from Townsville to Mt Isa. WA offered a “huge opportunity” for the deployment of wind farms and battery energy storage systems, Mr Esposito said. With a decades-long footprint in Australia’s north and west, INPEX is Japan’s largest fossil fuel exploration and production company. Under pressure to reduce its global contribution to climate change, INPEX is already developing the production of liquid hydrogen and ammonia. “They elected Australia as the market to start diversification of the energy mix and huge investment in renewables,” Mr Esposito said. “Of course in this regard, Australia is the place to be,” he said. Enel and INPEX joined forces in a share purchase agreement in 2023, with the renewables business operating plants comprising 310 megawatts of solar capacity across South Australia and Victoria and a 75MW wind farm in Western Australia. A 93MW solar farm is under commissioning in Victoria and financial close was recently announced for a hybrid 98MW solar and 20MW battery project in NSW. But with international firms lining up to exploit clean energy resources, Australians living alongside projects are demanding a share of future profits through community funds, power bill rebates and other benefits. “The energy transition should be just. To be just it means that you need to support the communities and involve the communities in a proper way,” Mr Esposito said. He said Enel was proud of its legacy in providing support to areas facing a changing landscape and the impact of new infrastructure, including community funds, a focus on local hiring and providing training to support new jobs. “It’s an approach that is, for us, absolutely a pillar of our strategy,” he said. “We are still facing some regulatory ambiguity in what a social licence means, and we are trying to be a leader in the industry in helping and supporting all the key stakeholders in determining and defining what it is.”The Future Leaders of 2025 spotlight the trailblazers shaping tomorrow's world.
