Oregon and Oregon State are reportedly not going to play until at least 2028.
Reports indicate the Beavers wanted to play the game less than the Ducks—it’s hard to blame them.
On today’s episode of Locked On Ducks, Spencer McLaughlin discusses Oregon’s 2026 expectations and how high they should be for Duck fans.
Is “natty or bust” the right mindset?
Spencer dives into 2026 true freshman Dutch Horisk, who hails from the same school as Matayo Uiagalelei.
Can he find his way into the DL rotation in 2026?

The Minnesota Vikings continued their pre-draft evaluations at the Scouting Combine, reportedly meeting with a defensive prospect who fits a clear roster need in the trenches.
The decision-makers met with Clemson defensive tackle Demonte Capehart, the player announced at the Combine. He’s scheduled to fly off the board on Day 3 of the NFL Draft in a couple of months.
Capehart spent six years at Clemson and appeared in 57 games with the ACC program. In those appearances, he logged 72 tackles, 13.5 tackles for loss and 3 sacks. He can provide strength and power in the middle of the defensive front.

In a recent report, Draft Huddle summarized his skill set, “DeMonte Capehart is a large, experienced interior defensive tackle with strong anchor ability, rotational experience, and a power-driven play style developed within Clemson’s defensive line system. He wins with size, strength, and gap discipline rather than elite explosiveness or pass-rush production. While his limited statistical output and pass-rush ceiling cap his overall upside, his durability, frame, and interior toughness provide a reliable floor as a rotational NFL defensive tackle in a multi-front defensive scheme.”
Clemson defensive linemen, top to bottom, Cade Denhoff (44), Vic Burley (45) DeMonte Capehart (19), and defensive end Jahiem Lawson (15) play Troy during the first quarter at Memorial Stadium in Clemson, S.C. Saturday, September 6, 2025.
According to PFF, Capehart produced an elite run-stopping rate of 8.6%. His play in the ground game is undoubtedly his best attribute.
And that’s where the Vikings enter the conversation. The defense led by defensive magician Brian Flores lacks some oomph in that area.
Last season, Flores coordinated one of the league’s elite units, but the ground game left some room for improvement. The Vikings ranked 9th in run DVOA and 14th in rush EPA. Sure, that’s not bad by any means, but it didn’t quite match the success against the pass.

There were also a couple of alarming games in which opponents ran over them with little resistance. Contests against the Los Angeles Chargers, Pittsburgh Steelers, and Green Bay Packers come to mind when backup-caliber runners (Kimani Vidal, Kenneth Gainwell, and Emmanuel Wilson) were unstoppable.
Minnesota’s defensive line room still includes the two expensive veterans the franchise added a year ago. There’s a decent chance that one of Javon Hargrave and Jonathan Allen won’t be on the team when the Draft kicks off, however. Too enticing are the potential salary-cap savings for a team in the red.

Scheduled to become an exclusive rights free agent, Jalen Redmond is widely expected to return for another year after his breakout campaign. Behind that top trio, the Vikings employ 2024 and 2025 draftees Levi Drake Rodriguez and Tyrion Ingram-Dawkins, who have played rotational roles.
Pre-draft meetings at the Combine do not automatically signal strong draft interest, but they are a key part of a team’s evaluation process. Franchises typically use these conversations to gauge football IQ, personality, and scheme fit as much as on-field production. For a veteran college player like Capehart, who has extensive experience in a high-level defensive system at Clemson, those interviews can be especially important.
The Vikings, in particular, have shown a willingness in recent drafts to target interior defenders on Day 3 who can contribute early while developing into more consistent contributors over time.

Adding another Day 3 pick could complete the room, especially if that guy can perform against the run. Capehart fits that profile and could be on Minnesota’s list of intriguing players. He is expected to perform well at the Combine to boost his stock.
Nick Fuentes reacted publicly on X after Candace Owens claimed Charlie Kirk had a “third eye” and said they had discussed astral projection.
Owens made the remarks during a livestream on February 5, 2026, titled An Open Letter to Erika Kirk. In the broadcast, she discussed conversations she said she had with Kirk about supernatural experiences, including what she described as his “third eye,” sleep paralysis, and astral projection.
After clips from the livestream circulated online, Fuentes responded later that month. On February 25, 2026, the fan-run X account Fuentes Updates posted a summary of his reaction. The post stated:
Advertisement
“Once Candace Owens said she can astral project, Nick started getting freaked out 😳 ‘IS SHE IN HERE RIGHT NOW???’”
The quoted remark was presented as Fuentes’ immediate response to Owens’ claim that she could astral project. No additional written explanation was included in the post cited. His reaction focused specifically on her assertion about astral projection rather than the broader set of claims discussed in the livestream.
Candace Owen’s YouTube podcast served as the backdrop to the exchange. During that episode, she described past discussions with Charlie Kirk that she said involved paranormal and metaphysical topics.
Those comments drew attention on social media in the weeks that followed, including the February 25, 2026, post referencing Fuentes’ reaction.

Candace Owens’ claims about a “third eye” and astral projection
In the February 5, 2026, livestream titled An Open Letter to Erika Kirk, Owens detailed conversations she said she had with Kirk regarding what she described as unusual childhood experiences and metaphysical subjects.
She stated:
“Charlie and I spoke a lot about his third eye. That’s why that sentence caught my attention in the article. He spoke about the street lamps that would go off when he would run, about the special school that he had to go to.”
Candace Owens added that they discussed the testing they both underwent during childhood. Owens further said:
“We spoke about the fact that we could both astral project. You know all of this, of course, you have his phone.”
She also referenced sleep paralysis and similar experiences, stating:
Advertisement
“When we learned that not everybody does that naturally. Sleep paralysis, you name it. We had conversations about it.”
Third eye must mean something totally different
In addition to her livestream statements, Candace Owens had previously made similar remarks in an earlier podcast episode published on October 8, 2025. In that episode, she described what she called a vivid dream involving Kirk, stating that he appeared to her and told her he had been betrayed. She said:
“I had a vivid dream this weekend and Charlie came to me and he told me that he was betrayed.”
Candace Ownes further added:
“You don’t have to believe that, but I do believe that… I also felt in the dream that it is soon going to be revealed… that there is nothing and no one that is going to stop the truth from coming out and it is going to have international consequences.”
She concluded that statement by adding:
Advertisement
“Take that to the bank. Quote me on that. Women tend to have a stronger intuition about people, I would say.”
Charlie Kirk’s passing on September 10, 2025, marked a widely noted moment within conservative political media. Since then, public discussion surrounding his life and work has continued, with Candace Owens’ recent claims and the reaction that followed becoming part of that broader conversation.
It has been quite the season for the Bruins, both on and off the court.
Most of the headlines this season, beyond the gym, have involved head coach Mick Cronin.
From questioning his squad’s toughness to kicking Steven Jamerson out of a game to doubting his team’s potential, the seventh-year coach has been borderline embarrassing.
Through it all, though, UCLA has persevered and seems to be peaking at the right time.

The Bruins’ tournament resume got a big boost this week after knocking off Illinois on Saturday and dismantling USC on Tuesday night.
Donovan Dent had a big week. Against Illinois, he played 42 minutes, finishing with 14 points, including the game-winner to cap the upset.
He followed that up with a 30-point performance against the crosstown rivals.
More impressively, over the last two wins, he has dished out 22 assists without turning the ball over in 80 minutes of court time.
The two-game winning streak has improved UCLA’s record to 11-6 in Big Ten play and 19-9 overall.

Winners of seven of their last 10 games, the Bruins seem to have righted some of their woes following a tough two-game swing through the State of Michigan.
The trip to the Great Lakes State is certainly no picnic this season as both the Wolverines and Spartans look like legitimate challengers in March.
But a pair of lopsided losses by an average of 26.5 points in the two contests could have signaled the end for UCLA.
Instead, the Bruins got themselves off the mat with a pair of impressive performances.

Donovan Dent’s shooting should open things up for Trent Perry | UCLA Athletics
This UCLA team enters March with seven of its nine losses coming against Quad 1 opponents, and only one of them at Pauley Pavilion.
If Dent can start finding his shooting stroke consistently—especially on threes—it will be a big lift for the Bruin offense.
The senior point guard has connected on only 24.1% of his triples this season.
That makes his performance against the Trojans all the more promising, as he knocked down five of six from distance.
He ranks fifth in the nation with 7.2 assists per game, but his threat to score from outside will open things up more for the likes of Tyler Bilodeau and Trent Perry.

Perry has stepped up recently as the sophomore guard has reached double figures in nine of his last 10 games, while averaging 15.2 points per outing during that stretch.
UCLA’s offense is averaging 78.0 points per game, ranking 136th nationally, but 77.6% of the team’s scoring has come from five players.
The Bruins could use more production from their bench down the stretch.
UCLA does not have any bad losses this season, with a neutral-site loss at the hands of California being the worst on the resume.

That loss could loom large down the stretch as the Bears are a fellow bubble team and the head-to-head result could come into play.
The homecourt overtime loss to Indiana would fall into that same category. But UCLA has a chance to erase all bubble talk with a strong finish to the regular season.
Each of the final three games on the schedule would be Quad 1 wins today.
Trips to Minnesota and USC sandwiched around a visit from Nebraska give UCLA the chance to make a statement before they head to Chicago for the Big Ten Tournament.
The Bruins need to continue their current surge. They are right smack dab in the midst of the huge NCAA bubble, but the opportunity is there to separate themselves from the pack.

UCLA had high expectations heading into the season, and they still have time to deliver on them. This is a talented team with the potential to make a lot of noise in March if they click.
The Bruins seem to be getting hot at the right time, but just how hot remains to be seen.

“During that time I think that we weren’t playing badly at a club and I wasn’t playing badly but certain people decided to just send abusive messages after pretty much every game and it got to a point where I thought this is not OK,” Cain added.
“It didn’t matter what I did on the pitch and it does affect you at some point.
“You see so much of it you start thinking, are they right? Obviously you know that they’re not but I think it was becoming so much that sometimes you have to speak out.”
Cain believes people can forget that footballers “are actual humans”, with abuse affecting players’ lives away from the pitch as well as family members.

Therefore, Cain says, she will use her platform to try to prevent further abuse.
“I think when you do say something, people start deleting all the negative comments they’ve made and they think that’s OK,” she added.
“But if I can have a tiny, tiny effect on people maybe thinking before they write something, then I’ll absolutely do that.”
“You have to take the good with the bad sometimes and I understand people can get carried away and let their emotions get away from them, but I think [it is good to have] a reminder that it can have a serious effect on people’s mental health.”
United Football League games will look noticeably different once the 2026 season kicks off.
The spring football league announced several rule revisions for its upcoming season, including a new twist on field goals. Any team that makes a field goal of at least 60 yards will receive four points instead of the traditional three.
“We want to create an exciting game. We want good flow. We want big plays. We want to promote scoring,” UFL head of officiating Dean Blandino told USA Today Sports.

Other notable changes center around punting restrictions. Teams will be barred from punting “anywhere inside the 50-yard line,” the UFL said, except after the two-minute warning in either half.
The past couple of seasons in the NFL saw an uptick in field goal tries from beyond the 60-yard mark. Dallas Cowboys kicker Brandon Aubrey, who played spring football in the USFL from 2022-23, connected on a 64-yard field goal last season.

“Kicking a 65-yard field goal is a lot harder than one from 35,” Blandino added, according to ESPN. “Why should they count the same? So, it promotes excitement. Those are really, really exciting plays, whether it’s an end to half or end of game, and it’s also going to change the strategy of the game as well.”

Other changes in the rules overhaul included a ban of the tush push. The short-yardage play was nearly banned by NFL team owners in 2025.

Kickers will begin kicking off the ball from the 30-yard line during the 2026 season.
Theranos founder Elizabeth Holmes recently complained that her federal prison camp did not allow her and her fellow inmates to watch President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address. Holmes is currently incarcerated at Federal Prison Camp Bryan in Texas after being convicted of three counts of wire fraud and one count of conspiracy to commit wire fraud in 2022.
On February 25, 2026, Elizabeth Holmes took to her X account to complain about not being allowed to watch Trump’s State of the Union address, which was held the previous day. She further alleged that the system was “broken” as the federal prison camp allowed inmates to “stay up past count” to watch the BET Awards, adding:
“My federal prison camp let inmates stay up past count for the BET Music Awards. Last night they wouldn’t let us watch the State of the Union. The Bureau of Prisons would rather we be entertained than educated. The system is broken.”
In a follow-up post, she added that she had learned her camp leadership was unaware of the State of the Union address, writing:
“Update: I’ve now learned that Bryan Prison camp leadership was not aware there was a State of the Union address last night. They have committed to ensuring we can watch future presidential addresses, debates, and other major political events going forward.”
Update: I’ve now learned that Bryan Prison camp leadership was not aware there was a State of the Union address last night. They have committed to ensuring we can watch future presidential addresses, debates, and other major political events going forward.I’m grateful for the quick response. Access to civic life shouldn’t end at a prison fence, and now it won’t. Hopefully this will extend to the other 121 federal prisons in this country. 🇺🇸🦅🦅

Elizabeth Holmes is scheduled for release on April 3, 2032
Elizabeth Holmes reportedly dropped out of Stanford University at the age of 19 to focus on developing health care technology and founded Theranos, a blood-testing start-up, in 2003. Her company was funded by the likes of Robert Murdoch, and Holmes became the United States’ youngest self-made billionaire in 2014.
Her company specialized in creating a device, called the Edison, that was believed to conduct conventional laboratory and blood tests with just a finger prick and a few drops of blood. It reportedly offered more than 240 tests ranging from cholesterol to cancer.
However, an exposé by The Wall Street Journal, dated October 16, 2015, cast doubt on the company’s claims. This report instigated a federal probe into Holmes and an indictment that charged Holmes and Theranos executive Ramesh “Sunny” Balwani of misleading and defrauding investors and patients.
Elizabeth Holmes’ trial began in 2022, and she began her sentence in 2023. At the time of her sentencing, U.S. Attorney Stephanie M. Hinds said:

“When fraud is perpetrated on those providing the necessary capital, it staunches investment and can cripple an industry. For almost a decade, Elizabeth Holmes fabricated and spread elaborate falsehoods to draw in a legion of capital investors, both big and small, and her deceit caused the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars. Her sentence reflects the audacity of her massive fraud and the staggering damage she caused.”
SAN JOSE, Calif. (AP) — Jury finds Elizabeth Holmes guilty on 4 counts of fraud and conspiracy at her former blood-testing startup Theranos.
Holmes was a new first-time mom before her trial began in 2022, and she gave birth to her second child in 2023, months before she was scheduled to begin her sentencing. She began her sentence on May 30, 2023, and is scheduled to be released on April 3, 2032.
According to a People Magazine interview in February 2025, Elizabeth Holmes maintains her innocence, adding:
“Then it was about forgiving myself for my own part. [And] I refused to plead guilty to crimes I did not commit. Theranos failed. But failure is not fraud.”
Elizabeth Holmes reportedly works as a reentry clerk in prison, earning 31 cents an hour. She also works as a law clerk and teaches French to fellow inmates.

The most important thing to remember is to gamble responsibly. When betting on football, treat it as entertainment and always assume you’ll lose.
Only bet what you can afford to lose and don’t get too carried away by free bet or casino offers.
