Some of the college games where the chant rose include Oklahoma State, North Carolina State, Auburn, and Kentucky.

NASCAR's playoff race at Talladega Superspeedway was removed and rescheduled for Monday because persistent rain supported the series into too small of a window to operate as expected.

Drivers have been angry going into Talladega because of the unpredictability of the 2.66-mile superspeedway and the dangers of pack racing. Both the Truck Series race and Xfinity Series race doubleheader on Saturday were crash-marred and won by non-playoff drivers. The Cup drivers don't want the same aggressive racing because one wrong move can trigger a championship-ruining wreck.
