Impact: Colts trades change three matchups for Cowboys

Dallas Cowboys 27 Oct 2026, 22:30 GMT+ One of the best offensive linemen in the entire NFL is heading to a new home, and it impacts the Cowboys' schedule in two ways. The Indianapolis Colts have opted to trade all-world offensive guard Quenton Nelson to the defending champion Seattle Seahawks immediately following the conclusion of Week 7 around the league. Nelson, a six-time All-Pro and eight-time Pro Bowler, exits a Colts team that is slated to host the Cowboys in Week 9 at Lucas Oil Stadium. This presumably means, if Dallas can take advantage of the situation, that the Colts' offensive line has been massive weakened for All-Pro Quinnen Williams and three-time Pro Bowler Kenny Clark. Contrarily, however, Nelson heading to the Seahawks instantly makes things more difficult for the Cowboys when they head to the Pacific Northwest in Week 13.Getting to Sam Darnold won't be an easy task…

Texas early voting rate is slightly behind 2018, when Beto O’Rourke challenged Ted Cruz

by Zach Leggio and Dan Keemahill, The Texas Tribune October 27, 2026 Nearly 4.5 million Texans cast a ballot in the first seven days of early voting — outpacing the turnout rate of the 2022 midterm election but slightly behind 2018, when Democrat Beto O’Rourke fell 2.6 points shy of toppling U.S. Sen. Ted Cruz. From Oct. 19 through Sunday, 23.4% of registered Texas voters had cast a ballot or voted by mail, according to data from the Texas secretary of state. In 2018, the turnout was 24.3% in the first seven days of early voting. Derek Ryan, a Republican consultant and data analyst, expects the pace of early voting to increase this week, leading to a busy day at the polls on Friday, when the early voting period closes. Election Day is Nov. 3. “We could see anywhere between maybe 20 to 30% of the votes that get cast in this election get cast on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday this week,”…

What went wrong in Salt Lake City: Houston reflects on heartbreaker at Utah

The opportunity was there for the Houston Cougars. With 6:46 remaining in the third quarter, No. 14 Houston held a 10-0 lead over No. 10 Utah in the hostile environment of a sold-out Rice-Eccles Stadium. With roughly 65 percent of game in the books, the Cougars were in position to deliver a statement victory on the national stage. A win would have snapped the nation's longest winning streak, strengthened Houston's College Football Playoff résumé, and potentially propelled the Cougars into the AP Top 10 for the first time since 2016. With no other ranked opponents remaining on the schedule, Houston had a golden opportunity to catapult itself into the playoff conversation. Instead, the opportunity slipped away. Utah scored the final three touchdowns of the night to secure a 21-13 comeback victory and extend its winning streak to 13 games. After the dust settled in Salt Lake City, Houston…
