UCLA Bruins upset Oregon Ducks to stay unbeaten and change the Big Ten championship picture

UCLA earned a massively important 17-15 win over Oregon on Saturday to remain perfect for the year and continue a push toward a Big Ten Championship appearance.

The No. 21 Bruins headed to Eugene to take on the No. 13 Ducks.

Oregon was without starting QB Dante Moore after he sustained a concussion against USC.

That meant backup Dylan Raiola got things going under center.

UCLA put points on the board first with a first-quarter field goal, while Oregon answered back with a touchdown.

FIVE IMPORTANT COLLEGE FOOTBALL QUESTIONS THAT WILL BE ANSWERED AFTER THIS WEEKEND'S SLATE

However, their attempt at a 2-point conversion was no good, and it would come back to haunt them.

UCLA added a touchdown in the second quarter, and another in the fourth to go up 17-6, and that's when Oregon coach Dan Lanning decided to give Raiola — who was just 6/19 passing on the day for 43 yards and two interceptions — in favor of senior Brock Thomas.

However, the call to bring in the third-string signal caller proved to be a good one as Thomas led the Ducks downfield for a field goal with just over five minutes left in the game. He then hit wide receiver Evan Stewart in the end zone to make the game 17-15 with a little over two minutes left.

So... remember that failed 2-point conversion in the first quarter?

That meant that the best way to give themselves a chance at the win was to take another crack at two points, and, well...

The Ducks did wind up getting the ball back with an opportunity to take the lead, but the Bruins managed to put a stop to it for the win.

That's a massive, statement win for the Bruins, and a tough second loss for the Ducks.

This one is going to make some waves in the rankings, in the Big Ten standings, and the College Football Playoff picture.

But for now, UCLA is clearly enjoying an important road win.

Keri Russell gets X-rated about early days with Matthew Rhys in candid sex confession

Keri Russell is getting candid about the early days in her relationship with her longtime partner.

During a recent appearance on the "Dear Chelsea" podcast, the 50-year-old actress discussed what it was like falling in love with her boyfriend, Matthew Rhys, while filming the early seasons of "The Americans."

"We were like falling in love and staying up all night and like having sex all the time and just like wearing disguises, like, I'm f---ing [in] crazy wigs and like wearing pearls," she said on the podcast. "When have you ever worn pearls and like, f---ing in trailers and f---ing everywhere. I mean, it was insanity. It was so fun and sneaky, and sexy, and so good."

Although the two had met briefly prior to working together, they reconnected in 2012 to film the first season of "The Americans" and their relationship became public in April 2014 after they first sparked dating rumors in late 2013.

Together they share their son Sam, who they welcomed in May 2016. Russell is also a mother to her two kids — River and Willa — from her previous marriage to Shane Deary.

While the couple have been together for over a decade, Russell told podcast host, Chelsea Handler, that she doesn't see the need to marry Rhys, noting, "I’ve had a big party. I get to dress up all the time."

"People used to have to be married to have a credit card. We can have credit cards now," Russell said. "I don’t need my last name to go away. I’m cool. If you wanna be here, be here. If you don’t, that’s cool too."

She added that since the two share a child, to her that means "forever" and that she finds marriage a bit "antiquated."

Russell is currently promoting the fourth season of her hit Netflix show, "The Diplomat," in which she portrays Kate Wyler, the U.S. ambassador to the United Kingdom who finds herself in the middle of conflicts between the two countries.

When it comes to the character, the "Felicity" actress told People, it is "fun to play someone so smart, so funny, so fierce," but who also "does stupid s--- all the time."

"I love her frankness, I love her bossiness. I love how she is always getting herself into hot water," she said. "I mean, to lose in a drama as a character is good. To be constantly losing and messing things up, it’s great. But I also love that she can pull it together and be presentable and put a dress on if she needs to."

After Rhys recently neglected to thank Russell in his acceptance speeches at the Emmy Awards, where he won for his work on both "Widow's Bay" and "The Beast In Me," Handler suggested that when Russell eventually wins for her role in "The Diplomat," she thanks all her ex-boyfriends and leaves Rhys out.

PUT YOUR ENTERTAINMENT KNOWLEDGE TO THE TEST AND SEE HOW YOU SCORE

While many were concerned by Rhys' omission, Russell explained she told him he didn't have to thank her, as he told her he was most nervous about having to make the speech if he won.

"I said, ‘Take me off your plate. Like, you don’t have to thank me. I know you love me,’" she revealed. There's so many people you have to thank. I don’t care if you want to thank the dog walker. You do whatever you want to do. That’s your minute. That’s your 45 seconds. So I just said, 'Take me off your plate.' And we kind of said to each other, 'We don’t have to thank each other.'"

Unranked Oklahoma knocks off No. 1 Texas in walk-off fashion after Arch Manning's rough 4th quarter

The top-ranked Texas Longhorns had at least a couple chances to win their third-straight Red River Rivalry, but the top-ranked team in the country faltered on its biggest stage of the college season.

Instead, the unranked Oklahoma Sooners took advantage of a missed field goal in the final minutes and two fourth-quarter interceptions by Arch Manning to pull off a wild 27-24 upset victory in Dallas.

The Red River Rivalry looked like it would be all Texas early, as Arch Manning made one of his better plays, running to his left and throwing a 41-yard touchdown. Oklahoma matched it in the next quarter, but Texas was able to take a 17-7 lead at the half.

However, the Longhorns offense stalled, and the Sooners offense picked up in the fourth quarter. Oklahoma was able to squeak out a field goal in the third, while both teams exchanged punts, but the Sooners opened up the fourth quarter with a game-tying touchdown run by Lloyd Avant, erasing their double-digit deficit.

Both teams exchanged punts yet again, but on Texas’ second drive of the fourth quarter, Manning overthrew a receiver, and it was picked off by Peyton Bowen and taken to the house for a 42-yard pick-6, giving Oklahoma a 24-17 lead with 10:07 to go.

TULSA'S DAVID WELLS JR. TIPS BALL TO HIMSELF FOR IMPROBABLE TOUCHDOWN IN WILD PLAY AGAINST NAVY

Manning was down, but not out, as he hit Cam Coleman on a 342-yard dime to snatch all momentum. Manning found Jermaine Bishop Jr. two plays later to tie the score with 6:32 remaining. Texas then forced a punt after four plays and were in the driver's seat.

The Longhorns quickly got on the other side of the field, but they had to settle for a 52-yard field goal try - however, it went wide-right, and it was Oklahoma ball with 1:54 to go at their own 35. After forcing an Oklahoma punt, Texas had a shot to end the game in walk-off fashion, but Manning threw yet another fourth-quarter interception, ending that threat.

Oklahoma got into field-goal range on back-to-back pass plays with nine seconds left, and Tate Sandell drilled a 47-yard field goal as time expired.

It was the first loss for the Longhorns on the season, automatically losing their first place spot in the SEC due to Alabama and Georgia, at 5-0 each, facing off later Saturday.

The Sooners are now 3-2 on the season, as they fight to sneak into the playoff.

A scammer has your name, phone number and address. What can they actually do?

If you've ever wondered how much damage a scammer could really do with your name, phone number and home address, the answer is probably more than you'd expect.

Those three details are generally not enough by themselves to empty your bank account, take out a major loan or completely steal your identity. However, they can give a scammer a believable starting point. From there, the goal may be to trick you into revealing the more sensitive information they still need.

That is what makes seemingly basic personal information so useful to criminals. Here's what a scammer can actually do with those details, the warning signs to watch for and the steps you can take to make yourself a harder target.

THE SECRET LIST THAT TELLS SCAMMERS YOU'RE AN EASY TARGET

Your name, phone number and address may already appear in public records, old directories, property records or data broker databases. As a result, people sometimes assume there is little risk if a stranger already knows them. The problem starts when those details are combined.

A scammer may add information from a data breach, social media account, people-search site or earlier phishing attempt. Suddenly, the person contacting you may know where you live, your phone number, the names of relatives or other details that make a fake story sound legitimate.

That is why a scam call can feel so convincing even when nobody has actually hacked your phone or bank account. Data brokers can also collect information such as current and previous addresses, phone numbers, approximate age and possible relatives. A scammer may use those details to learn more about you before making contact.

Here are some of the most common ways that information could be used.

A scammer who knows your name and address can pretend to represent your bank, utility company, delivery service or government agency. For example, hearing someone read your correct home address may make the call seem legitimate. However, knowing personal information does not prove that the caller is really from the company they claim to represent.

Once someone has your address, they can send fraudulent invoices, fake prize notices, counterfeit checks or other deceptive mail directly to you. Because the material arrives at your real address and may include your full name, it can look more credible than a random email or text.

Your phone number can also become part of a SIM-swap or account-takeover attempt. A phone number and address alone usually will not be enough to take control of your wireless account. Still, a criminal may combine those details with passwords, PINs or other information stolen elsewhere. If they successfully move your number to another SIM or device, they may then receive calls and text messages intended for you, including some verification codes.

This is where the risk can grow quickly. Perhaps one database exposes your phone number and address while another contains an old password or Social Security number. Criminals can combine pieces from multiple sources to create a much more complete profile. That information may then be used for identity theft, account takeovers or additional phishing attempts.

Personal details can also strengthen family-emergency scams. A criminal may know your relative's name, where you live or other information that helps support a fake story. With AI-generated voices making impersonation scams increasingly believable, personal details can make an already emotional call even harder to judge.

Some services still rely on personal details or knowledge-based questions during account recovery. A scammer may try information such as your address, phone number or other details to see whether they can get further into a password-reset or identity-verification process. They may still need additional information. However, every correct answer can move them one step closer.

Knowing your name, phone number and address does not automatically give someone access to your bank account. Those details alone are also generally insufficient for opening major financial accounts or taking out loans because financial institutions typically require additional identity verification.

However, I would not treat that as a guarantee. The bigger concern is that a scammer can use the information they already have to convince you to provide what they are missing, such as a password, verification code, Social Security number, bank account information or credit card number. In other words, your basic information may be the beginning of the attack rather than the end.

HACKER CLAIMS 7.49M CUSTOMER RECORDS STOLEN FROM AMERICAN UTILITY COMPANY

Suppose your phone rings and the caller immediately knows your full name and home address. Then they tell you there is suspicious activity on one of your accounts. That specificity can cause you to listen a little longer. Next, they may ask you to verify a code that just arrived by text, confirm an account number or transfer money to supposedly protect it. This is where I want you to be especially careful. A caller knowing something about you is not proof that the caller knows you. Personal information should never replace independent verification.

Watch for these warning signs:

One unusual call does not necessarily mean someone has stolen your identity. Still, several warning signs appearing together deserve attention.

A few precautions can make it much harder for someone to turn basic information into a successful scam.

Search your name, phone number and address and see what comes up. You may find people-search sites and data brokers displaying information you would rather keep private. Where possible, submit opt-out requests to have those listings removed.

Ask your wireless carrier what protections it offers against SIM swaps and unauthorized number transfers. Set a strong account PIN or password and enable any available port-out or number-transfer protection.

If an unexpected caller knows your address, bank name or another personal detail, do not assume that means the call is real. Hang up and contact the company directly using a phone number or app you already trust.

Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) for important accounts. When possible, I prefer an authenticator app, passkey or physical security key over text-message verification for especially sensitive accounts. That reduces the damage a successful SIM swap could cause.

Choose a private family verification word or phrase that family members can use if someone calls claiming there is an emergency. Do not post it online or use something a stranger could easily guess.

Avoid confirming or correcting personal details during an unexpected call. If someone says, "You're still at 123 Main Street, correct?" you do not need to tell them your new address. End the call and verify the request independently.

Review bank and credit card activity for transactions you do not recognize. You should also check your credit reports for unfamiliar accounts or inquiries. If you are concerned about identity theft, a credit freeze can make it harder for someone to open new credit accounts in your name. Credit freezes are free and can be placed with Equifax, Experian and TransUnion.

Personal information tends to accumulate online over time. One breach may expose an email address while another exposes an old password. Meanwhile, data brokers may already have your address, phone number and information about your relatives.

An identity theft protection service can help you watch for signs that some of this information is being misused. Depending on the service and plan, that may include identity monitoring, credit monitoring, financial account alerts, data broker removal and help recovering from identity theft.

Identity and financial monitoring: Some services can alert you to certain suspicious activity involving your identity, credit or financial accounts.

Data broker removal: Some plans include tools that can help remove your personal information from supported data broker and people-search sites.

Scam support: Certain services offer access to specialists who can help you evaluate suspicious messages, calls or websites.

Identity restoration: If identity theft occurs, some providers offer restoration specialists who can help guide you through the recovery process.

Loss coverage: Depending on the provider and plan, you may also get insurance or reimbursement for certain eligible identity theft expenses or losses. Coverage limits, exclusions and availability vary, so read the terms carefully.

No identity theft service can prevent scams or guarantee that your personal information will never circulate online. However, monitoring and alerts may help you spot suspicious activity sooner.

Even with strong security habits, identity theft can still happen. Your Social Security number, financial information or other personal data may already be exposed without you realizing it. If you are concerned, consider using an identity theft protection service as an added layer of monitoring and recovery support. See my tips and best picks on Best Identity Theft Protection at Cyberguy.com

It is also worth checking whether your email address or other personal information has appeared in a known data breach. Free breach-checking tools can help you identify exposed accounts so you can change affected passwords, turn on two-factor authentication (2FA) and take other steps to lock them down.

If you notice suspicious activity, act quickly. The first priority is to stop any potential damage and determine whether someone has gained access to your accounts.

Most importantly, do not let someone pressure you into making a quick decision. Scammers rely on urgency to keep you from checking whether their story is real.

SCAMMERS ARE COMING FOR YOUR MONEY. HERE’S THE ONE THING YOU MUST NEVER DO

Your name, phone number and address may not seem like highly sensitive information, especially when some of it can already be found online. Still, those details can give a scammer enough material to build a much more believable story. I would pay less attention to how much a caller knows about you and more attention to what they want you to do next. If they ask for money, a password, a verification code or another sensitive detail, end the conversation and verify the request yourself. You probably cannot erase every trace of your personal information from the internet. However, you can reduce what is exposed, lock down important accounts and make sure a stranger cannot use a few correct details to earn your trust.

How would you react if a caller knew your full name, phone number and home address? Would those details make you trust the call, or would they make you more suspicious? Let us know by writing to us at Cyberguy.com

President talks 'Trump Ocean,' trades jokes with Tennessee crowd as Kid Rock kicks off sprawling rally

President Donald Trump touted billions of dollars in manufacturing investments and his administration's efforts to combat crime in Tennessee on Saturday, while calling Iranian leaders "crazy" and floating the idea of a "Trump Ocean" during a wide-ranging rally featuring musician Kid Rock.

The president appeared in Clarksville ahead of the Nov. 3 midterm elections, campaigning for Republican Sen. Bill Hagerty and gubernatorial candidate Marsha Blackburn while mixing economic talking points, foreign policy and off-script humor.

Kid Rock opened the event with a religious-themed introduction, praising Trump's leadership while taking aim at the news media.

TRUMP TOUTS ‘GOLDEN AGE’ AT OHIO RALLY, URGES VOTERS TO DELIVER GOP MIDTERM WINS

"Literally, President Trump could walk across the Cumberland River, and tomorrow the headline would say President Trump refuses to swim," the musician joked.

The rocker also condemned Islamist extremism and defended religious freedom, arguing that Americans should not be forced to live under religious laws that override the Constitution.

"We are not, and we will never be, one nation under Mohammed, because we are, and we always will be, one nation under God," Kid Rock told the crowd.

Trump later thanked his longtime supporter and friend by his given name, Bob, before turning to an array of domestic and international issues.

The president addressed tensions with Iran, calling the country's leaders "crazy" while claiming that Tehran's rhetoric had softened following U.S. military operations.

AFTER 'LAKE AMERICA,' TRUMP SUGGESTS A NEW NAME FOR THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO

"They don't talk that way anymore, by the way," Trump said after recounting previous threats from Iranian leaders.

Trump described what he characterized as extensive damage to Iran's military capabilities, claiming 159 ships had been sunk and its air force and air-defense systems destroyed.

"They have no Navy. They have no Air force, they have no anti-aircraft equipment," Trump said.

The president then pivoted from the Strait of Hormuz to an unexpected geography lesson, suggesting it could one day be called the "Trump Strait."

He also revisited his decision to rename the Gulf of Mexico the Gulf of America before floating additional changes to the map.

"We need a river. We need an ocean," Trump said, suggesting the Atlantic or Pacific could become the "Trump Ocean" or "Ocean of the Americas."

TRUMP RALLIES NEW YORK CROWD FOR REPUBLICAN BRUCE BLAKEMAN'S BID TO REPLACE GOV KATHY HOCHUL

"Before I get out, I think we should have an ocean," he added, without yet announcing any formal renaming plans.

On the economy, Trump promoted Korea Zinc's planned investment of more than $6 billion in Tennessee, a project expected to create 740 jobs across Montgomery and Smith counties.

Tennessee officials announced the $6.6 billion project in December, describing it as the largest single private corporate investment in state history. The plans include a new critical-minerals smelter in Clarksville and the reopening of a former mine in Gordonsville.

"And your state will soon be home to the first new mineral smelter in the United States, first one built since 1979," Trump said.

The project is intended to strengthen domestic supplies of minerals used in semiconductors, defense technology and advanced manufacturing.

TRUMP NAMES LEAVITT SUCCESSOR AFTER WEEKS OF SPECULATION — AND SHE'S NO STRANGER TO MAGA

Trump also cited General Motors' previously announced $275 million investment in its Spring Hill manufacturing facility to support production of next-generation turbocharged Cadillac engines.

The president credited his tariff policies with encouraging domestic investment, arguing that companies were expanding American manufacturing to avoid import duties.

In a Tennessee-focused fact sheet released as the rally began, the White House asserted that Republican-backed tax policies had preserved $23 billion in economic activity in the state. The administration also cited an average $3,674 tax refund for Tennesseans in 2026.

Public safety was another focal point of his address, with Trump praising federal law-enforcement operations in Memphis and claiming approximately 12,000 dangerous criminals had been removed.

The White House separately asserted that murders and overall crime in Memphis had declined approximately 36%, crediting the Memphis Safe Task Force.

The president also shared some lighter moments about first lady Melania Trump, describing her objections to his theatrical impersonations of athletes during discussions about transgender participation in women's sports.

"She said it's not presidential," Trump recalled, before joking about her film career. "There is only room for one star in a family, so I don't need this movie stuff. I don't need it."

Trump, who carried Tennessee in all three of his presidential campaigns, said the visit was also an opportunity to thank supporters in a state where he had enjoyed strong electoral backing.

"Sometimes it's nice to go to a place where you don't have to be, but you're there to say thank you to the great people that elected you three separate times in record time," Trump said.

Trump repeatedly returned to the November elections, urging supporters to back Republican candidates even though his name will not appear on the ballot.

"In this election, I'm asking you to do me a favor. Pretend. Just pretend that I'm running," Trump said.

Ben Affleck clears up ‘Gone Girl’ shower scene rumor after years of speculation

Ben Affleck put rumors to rest after years of speculation about a specific scene in one of his dozens of movie roles.

Affleck, 54, confirmed he showed all of his own skin in the 2014 psychological thriller "Gone Girl."

In the David Fincher film based on Gillian Flynn's 2012 novel, Affleck appeared completely in the nude for a shower scene.

Affleck added, "I've only worn one in one film, 'Hollywoodland.' It was a nose."

The Oscar winner starred as writing teacher Nick Dunne, who becomes a prime suspect following the disappearance of his wife, Amy, played by Rosamund Pike.

Affleck previously discussed the director's vision while filming the scene, and admitted he was "assured" nothing would be shown to audiences.

"David assured me — because trust is essential with directors and actors — 'Listen, if we tilt down, we’ll never go far enough to see anything,'" he said while accepting an award for the film at the 2014 Hollywood Film Awards.

He also joked, "I’d like to thank you for keeping the set cool ... If you’re gonna have one chance for America to see your junk, you want it to be cold."

While reflecting on the impact of the film more than a decade later, Affleck told Letterboxd, "I was willing to do anything for [Fincher], like, be naked."

"Working with David was the great privilege of my life," he said. "He’s one of the absolute greatest filmmakers ever to live."

During an appearance on "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" in 2014, Affleck's ex-wife, Jennifer Garner, also made fun of the slip.

"What I have to say is, 'You’re welcome,'" she told the talk show host. "I just try to consider myself a charitable person and I wanted to give back. You give me so much, I wanted to give something back to all of you."

5 forgotten ice cream flavors from the ’70s that fans are begging to be brought back

While today's freezers are packed with ice cream flavors such as cookies and cream, salted caramel and mint chocolate chip, some old-time favorites seem to have melted away.

Flavors including Butter Brickle, rum raisin and maple walnut were once familiar options at ice cream counters and grocery stores, but many have become harder to find as tastes have changed.

The food site Tasting Table recently looked back at a variety of nostalgic flavors that defined childhoods for many Americans. Here are five that might bring back some sweet memories.

NATIONAL ROOT BEER FLOAT DAY CELEBRATES AMERICAN CLASSIC THAT YOUNGER GENERATIONS ARE LEAVING BEHIND

Butter Brickle ice cream was inspired by a butterscotch-flavored candy created in Omaha, Nebraska, in the 1920s, according to Tasting Table. Featuring a butterscotch flavor with crunchy toffee pieces, the ice cream had become a national favorite by the 1970s but is harder to find today.

In a Facebook group dedicated to memories of the 1970s, the flavor came up repeatedly as fans reminisced about its signature bits of crunchy toffee.

YOUR FAVORITE GROCERY AND SNACK ITEMS MAY HAVE DISAPPEARED FROM STORE SHELVES IN 2026

Rum raisin ice cream dates back to the 1930s but surged in popularity in the 1970s, when the rum-soaked raisins and vanilla ice cream combo became widely available in shops and grocery stores. The flavor even made it to the White House, where President Richard Nixon reportedly served it for dessert.

Though it can still be found today, rum raisin has become harder to spot in many parts of the country. "I miss it so much! It’s my favorite ice cream flavor," one Reddit user wrote in a subreddit dedicated to ice cream.

CENTURY-OLD ITALIAN ICE RECIPE IS CREATING CHILDHOOD MEMORIES FOR A WHOLE NEW GENERATION

Baskin-Robbins introduced its bright Pink Bubblegum ice cream in the 1970s, complete with small pieces of chewy bubblegum mixed into each scoop, Tasting Table reported. The unusual flavor became a childhood favorite for some and has occasionally been brought back by Baskin-Robbins for limited runs.

TEST YOURSELF WITH OUR LATEST LIFESTYLE QUIZ

"It was my favorite. I would eat the ice cream and save the bubblegum for later," one Reddit user recalled.

Before it became an ice cream flavor, heavenly hash referred to another nostalgic oddity: a fruit salad made with ingredients such as whipped cream, marshmallows, candied fruit and nuts. Sealtest introduced its Heavenly Hash ice cream in 1969, combining marshmallows, almonds and chocolate chips for a treat similar to the Rocky Road we know today.

The flavor later disappeared along with Sealtest's ice cream line, but some fans still remember it fondly. "Now that was a great ice cream!" one Facebook user wrote.

Maple ice cream has deep roots in the Northeast, appearing in some 19th-century cookbooks, and the addition of walnuts eventually made it a New England staple. Maple walnut, also known as maplenut, was much easier to find in the 1970s but has since faded from many ice cream aisles and shops.

"My grandmother loved the Maple Walnut flavor. I don't think I've seen it since I was a kid," one Reddit user recalled.

'Happy Days' star Anson Williams says he had to create a second career because sitcom pay wasn't enough

When playing Potsie Weber on "Happy Days" didn't pay well enough, actor Anson Williams came up with a side hustle: a music career.

In a recent interview on the "Still Here Hollywood Podcast," the 77-year-old actor revealed the singing sideline was simply a matter of 1970s economics.

"On 'Happy Days' we didn't have the same salaries they have today. Not even close," he said. "Nine hundred dollars an episode, $1,200 an episode. It was fine back then, but...it's not a lifetime of earnings there."

Williams said that after speaking to "Partridge Family" star David Cassidy and Barry Williams, of "The Brady Bunch," about how much money they were making by taking their singing acts off the show, he thought to himself, "Wait a minute. I sing. If I can convince Garry to put a band on the show, maybe I can get booked, and maybe I can get some extra income." 

‘BRADY BUNCH’ CAST MADE NEARLY NOTHING FROM DECADES OF RERUNS, EVE PLUMB CLAIMS

After speaking with the show's creator, Garry Marshall, about the possibility of putting together a band to perform at Arnold's, the burger joint where Fonzie held court, the legendary director gave him a chance. Marshall told him he would have to pick a song and sing it to a bulldog, telling him, "If you're good, I get laughs. If you're bad, I get laughs. You're going to sing the bulldog."

"So I do it and then the letters start coming in, and he goes 'The people like it. The people like it.' He goes, 'We'll do more. You're in charge of it though,'" Williams recalled. "Then I got a major agent for that and started getting booked at state fairs for 10 years."

Williams added that his idea to sing on the show "started this whole career" that ended up being better for him monetarily, and was "just a whole other life experience."

After finding success as a musician as well as an actor, Williams said that Marshall approached him to express how proud he was of the actor, telling him, "You found an opportunity, and you're helping the show."

During an interview with Fox News Digital in March 2024, Williams revealed that while the show started as a hit with audiences, landing in the top 15 or 20, it slid down to 48th place at one point and was "on the verge of getting canceled."

"And Garry Marshall and Jerry Paris, our director, thought, ‘What if we changed the whole tone? What if we make it a live audience sitcom?’" Williams recalled. "So, half the season, one camera. The next season, one camera. The next season — two and a half in — they switch it to live audience. And the chemistry of the cast, the writing, was magic. That's the year we went to No. 1 in the world. That's when we exploded."

When the show became a huge success, Williams recalled Marshall advising him and his young co-stars to use their platforms for good, telling them to take the spotlight they found themselves in and "shine it on people that deserve it."

Following his time on "Happy Days," Williams pivoted to working more as a writer and director. He directed episodes of "Beverly Hills, 90210," "Sabrina the Teenage Witch," "Lizzie McGuire," "Charmed," "The Secret Life of an American Teenager" and more.

Through all his successes, Williams never forgot the advice Marshall gave to him during his time on "Happy Days."

"Ron Howard and I did a film called ‘Skyward,’ starring the first paraplegic ever in the history of television," he said. "We did films like ‘No Greater Gift,’ which doubled organ donorship cards. Henry did so many social issue movies of the week and after-school school specials, and charities."

"We really, to this day, try to shine the light to make things better," he added.

Hot mic catches ESPN announcer comparing North Carolina QB to a lousy hotel breakfast

An ESPN play-by-play announcer was caught on a hot mic making one of the greatest comparisons in broadcast history to describe UNC quarterback Billy Edwards Jr.

The Tar Heels came into the weekend at 2-2 after getting off to a solid 2-0 start and had a tough test against undefeated Pitt.

A big piece of the puzzle for them was going to be Edwards' play under center, which has been up and down this season.

While the game ultimately went UNC and Edwards' way with a big 21-17 upset win, the QB's play didn't seem to be wowing announcer Tom Hart at one point.

Without realizing his mic was hot, Hart could be heard making a very funny comment to analyst Roddy Jones.

JALEN HURTS CURSES AT RECEIVER IN VIRAL HOT-MIC MOMENT DURING EAGLES' COLLAPSE AGAINST RAMS

"Our hotel breakfast was the Billy Edwards Jr. of hotel breakfasts," Hart said.

Now, some people are going to think that's harsh, but those people haven't had the start of their day soured by a lackluster showing from a complimentary hotel breakfast buffet.

I mean, you're not expecting a brunch at the Four Seasons, but some of those perfectly folded pre-made omelettes, some biscuits, and a waffle iron in decent working order are all you want.

That's not a big ask. Diners across the nation execute this every day.

And yet, that low bar isn't even achieved on a shockingly frequent basis.

You end up rolling out of bed and heading down to the lobby only to be greeted with a sad stack of off-brand granola bars and a bagel that you're 90% sure you saw hanging out in the breakfast area the day before.

So yes, I can understand the urge to flame a college football player after experiencing a letdown like that.

I know I would... although I would double-check that the mic wasn't hot.

Tulsa's David Wells Jr. tips ball to himself for improbable touchdown in wild play against Navy

Saturday's college football slate is headlined by two SEC matchups that are some of the best rivalries in the sport - but that doesn't mean there aren't eyebrow-raising plays elsewhere.

Tulsa visited Navy on Saturday, and the Golden Hurricane scored a touchdown that nobody could have drawn up.

With just under two minutes to play in the first quarter, the game was tied at seven when Tulsa was at the opposing 10-yard line.

Quarterback Baylor Hayes tossed a backwards pass to wide receiver Oran Singleton Jr., who was stuffed roughly seven yards behind the line of scrimmage.

However, he managed to escape a tackle and throw a floating prayer into coverage. But one of his fellow pass-catchers made an improbable rescue.

David Wells Jr. (not related to the former pitcher) tipped the ball backward to himself outside of the end zone, caught it, and then scampered back in for the score.

That wasn't the only action Singleton got - he would catch a touchdown of his own later on to give Tulsa a 26-14 lead early in the second half.

It has not been a pleasant season for the Midshipmen, who were nationally ranked and won the Commander-in-Chief's Trophy by defeating both Air Force and Army last year. Navy also won the Liberty Bowl to complete an 11-2 season.

But entering Saturday, they already had more losses than they did all of last season.

Meanwhile, Tulsa has begun the season 3-2 after a disappointing 4-8 campaign last year.
