The Saints finally picked up their first win of the season as New Orleans defeated Minnesota 20-9. Jeff Palermo has the story…:
CUT 3 (34) “reporting”
Also in the NFL, in a rematch of the Super Bowl teams — even though Broncos Quarterback Peyton Manning completed an amazing 4th quarter rally yesterday afternoon to tie it up, Seattle QB Russell Wilson kept Denver from even getting the ball in overtime. The Seahawks won the game 26-20.
Northwestern State scored 20 4th quarter points to come from behind and upset their long time rival Louisiana Tech 30 to 27. Demon Coach Jay Thomas says it’s like a dream…:
CUT 16 (16) “loss of words”
It was Northwestern’s first win over an FBS opponent since 2005 and the Demons first win over the Bulldogs since 1979.
For the first time since 1991, Mississippi State beat LSU in Baton Rouge as the Bulldogs held on for a 34-29 victory on Saturday night in Tiger Stadium. Coach Les Miles:
CUT 18 (17) “this season”
With the loss, LSU fell 10 spots in the Coaches Poll to No. 18.
