First 12-team College Football Playoff set, Oregon seeded No. 1 and SMU edges Alabama for last spot SMU captured the last open spot in the 12-team College Football Playoff, bumping Alabama to land in a bracket that placed undefeated Oregon at No. 1. The selection committee preferred the Mustangs (11-2), losers of a heartbreaker in the Atlantic Coast Conference title game, who had a far less difficult schedule than Alabama (9-3) of the SEC but one fewer loss. The first-of-its-kind 12-team bracket marks a new era for college football, though the Alabama-SMU debate made clear there is no perfect formula. The tournament starts Dec. 20-21 with four first-round games. It concludes Jan. 20 with the national title game in Atlanta. Javascript is required for you to be able to read premium content.

BUCHAREST, Romania (AP) — Romanian lawmakers on Monday voted narrowly in favor of a new pro-European coalition government led by incumbent Prime Minister Marcel Ciolacu. The move could usher in an end to a protracted political crisis in the European Union country following the annulment of a presidential election by a top court. Parliament approved the new administration in a 240-143 vote in Romania’s 466-seat legislature. The new coalition is made up of the leftist Social Democratic Party, or PSD, the center-right National Liberal Party, PNL, the small ethnic Hungarian UDMR party and national minorities. It caps a month-long period of turmoil in which far-right nationalists made significant gains in a Dec. 1 parliamentary election, a week after a first-round presidential race saw the far-right outsider Calin Georgescu emerge as the front-runner. “It will not be an easy mandate for the future government,” Ciolacu, whose PSD party topped the polls in the parliamentary election, said in a statement Monday. “We are aware that we are in the midst of a deep political crisis,” he said. “It is also a crisis of trust, and this coalition aims to regain the trust of citizens, the trust of the people.” Romani’s 16 ministerial positions will be shared among the parties, which will hold a slim majority in the legislature. It’s widely seen as a tactical partnership to shut out far-right nationalists whose voices found fertile ground amid high living costs and a sluggish economy. President Klaus Iohannis was expected to swear in the new government later Monday. Ciolacu, who came third in the first-round presidential ballot despite polls indicating he would win the most votes, has served as prime minister since June 2023. Romania was plunged into turmoil after Georgescu’s surprise success in the presidential race, after allegations of electoral violations and Russian interference emerged. Days before the Dec. 8 runoff, the Constitutional Court made the unprecedented move to annul the presidential race. “We go through complicated times, but I think we all learned from mistakes of the past,” Ciolacu said. “I hope that together with my colleagues in the coalition, we’ll find the best solutions to get past the challenges we have in front of us.” Ciolacu said that the new government would aim to quickly organize the rerun of the presidential election in which the new coalition has agreed to put forward an agreed common pro-European candidate. George Simion, the leader of the far-right Alliance for the Unity of Romanians, which came second in the parliamentary election, said that all lawmakers from his party on Monday would vote against the Ciolacu government. In 2021, the PSD and the PNL also formed an unlikely but increasingly strained coalition together with UDMR, which exited the Cabinet last year after a power-sharing dispute. ___ Stephen McGrath reported from Warwick, England.

BRESEE! New Orleans Saints kicker Blake Grupe didn’t miss just one, but two field goal attempts Sunday against the New York Giants. But luckily for him, Saints defensive tackle Bryan Bresee saved him and his team with an unbelievably athletic play while Giants kicker Graham Gano was trying to tie the game up to potentially send things into overtime. (RELATED: Jaguars’ Evan Engram Slapped With $11K Fine After Punishing Dirty-Hitting, Palestinian-Loving Azeez Al-Shaair: REPORT) With just seconds left to go in the contest, Breesee went over the line of scrimmage with a giant hop, blocking Gano’s field goal attempt to lock up the 14-11 victory for New Orleans . The Giants only needed three more points to put the game into OT, and with New York setting themselves up for a 35-yarder after a smooth drive ( 10 plays, 56 yards ), it looked like we were in for some extra football. But my man Bresee had different ideas, showing off his athleticism in the process. WATCH: Kick is no good.

You can get paid $2,500 to shop at Costco for a weekPARIS (AP) — Paris Saint-Germain failed to score in Ligue 1 for the first time this season as the reigning champion was denied by outstanding goalkeeping from Auxerre's Donovan Léon in a 0-0 draw on Friday. Léon's string of superb saves thwarted PSG’s attacking stars. After a fairly even first 45 minutes, PSG camped in the Auxerre half but could not find a way past León, who made memorable stops from Gonçalo Ramos, Achraf Hakimi, Kang-In Lee, Désiré Nonka-Maho and Randal Kolo Muani. Vitinha saw one curling shot come back off the bar. PSG had 25 shots to Auxerre’s six and 15 corners to Auxerre’s three but the home side still could have stolen all three points, as PSG keeper Gianluigi Donnarumma had to make a smart stop from Hamed Traorè. PSG remained eight points clear on top of Ligue 1. Auxerre was eighth. Canadian striker Jonathan David scored two and made another as Lille brushed past Brest 3-1 to extend its unbeaten run to 10 games in Ligue 1. The last time Lille lost to Brest at home was in 1989 and that long run never looked likely to fall as David turned in a man-of-the-match performance at Stade Pierre-Mauroy. He put Lille ahead from the penalty spot after nine minutes and he got away from his marker and crossed for Hákon Haraladsson to clip home a second just before halftime. Ludovic Ajorque got one back for Brest early in the second half but David restored Lille’s two-goal cushion when he pounced on a loose ball to slide home his team’s third. David’s goals took his season total to 17 in 23 games. They were his 10th and 11th in the league and lift him to the top of the Ligue 1 goal-scoring chart. Marseille was second ahead of Lille and Monaco on goal difference. AP soccer: https://apnews.com/hub/soccerTORONTO — Mark Scheifele scored a hat trick and an assist while Kyle Connor collected two goals and an assist to spark the NHL-leading Winnipeg Jets to a 5-2 win over the Toronto Maple Leafs on Monday. The Jets enter the Christmas break with back-to-back wins, while the Maple Leafs dropped their second in a row at Scotiabank Arena without wounded captain Auston Matthews, out with an upper-body injury. Connor scored late in the first period on the power play and early in the second to give the Jets a two-goal lead. Gabriel Vilardi picked up his second assist of the night with a brilliant pass to Scheifele in front at 3:27 of the third, giving the Jets a 3-1 advantage. Scheifele banged in a loose puck for his 20th midway through the third period and added an empty-netter for his hat trick. John Tavares scored twice for the Maple Leafs. Winnipeg out-shot the Leafs 27-25, with Jets goalie Connor Hellebuyck making 23 saves before a crowd of 18,923 fans. Joseph Woll stopped 22 shots in the Toronto net. Jets defenceman Josh Morrissey also notched two assists to reach 30 for the season. The win avenged the Maple Leafs' 6-4 victory in Winnipeg on Oct. 28, which ended the Jets' eight-game win streak to start the season. Maple Leafs forward William Nylander extended his point streak to seven games with assists on the Tavares goals. Takeaways Toronto: Defender Chris Tanev missed his first game this year with a lower-body ailment after skating in the pre-game warmup. Winnipeg: As impressive as the Jets (25-10-1) have played before the break, they are only one point ahead of the 36-game pace of 23-9-4 set a year ago. Key moment After Jets defenceman Neal Pionk had his shot blocked, the puck bounded to Marner for a breakaway. Pionk hustled back to lift Marner's stick to foil his shot attempt early in the second period to preserve Winnipeg's 2-0 lead. Key stat The Maple Leafs have gone 7-4-0 with Matthews on the sidelines this season and 42-23-2 in his career. Up next Toronto returns to action after the holiday break on Friday, visiting the Detroit Red Wings. On Saturday, the Jets play host to the Ottawa Senators.

ANN/VIETNAM NEWS – “With the same monthly income of VND18 million (USD720), my family’s quality of life improved dramatically when I moved from HCM City to Binh Duong for work,” said Tran Trong Nhan, originally from Ca Mau in the south. After two years of living and working in Binh Duong, Nhan noted that his family’s finances had stabilised. “Living costs, including accommodation, are 20 to 50 per cent higher in HCM City compared to nearby provinces like Binh Duong. On the same salary, my family of three could barely cover basic expenses in the city, with no money left for leisure, travel, or savings,” he explained. He highlighted housing as a major factor, noting that renting a 20-square-metre room in HCM City costs between VND2.5 and VND4 million (USD100-160) per month, while a similar room in Binh Duong, with better quality, costs only VND1.5 million (USD60). Other expenses, such as kindergarten fees, are also significantly lower in Binh Duong. Thanks to the reduction in costs, Nhan’s family can now save money and spend on leisure activities, including family outings and trips. Nhan’s experience reflects a growing trend of workers leaving HCM City due to its high cost of living. Rising prices for housing, utilities, and daily necessities are making it increasingly difficult for many families to sustain themselves. Even those with stable jobs and decent incomes find themselves struggling to make ends meet. Another case is migrant worker Le Van Thuong, 26, from the central province of Thanh Hoa, who recently decided to leave after four years working in HCM City. Before moving south, Thuong worked for a tourism event organisation in Hanoi. Attracted by HCM City’s vibrant job market and abundant opportunities for young people, he moved to the city in 2019, just before the Covid-19 pandemic began. During the pandemic, he faced prolonged social distancing and harsh challenges After the city reopened, Thuong found work at an event organisation company with a monthly salary of VND15 million (USD600). However, high living costs in the city left him unable to save or even afford trips back to his hometown for holidays like Tet (Lunar New Year). “Living in HCM City is expensive. Home rent, food, and other essentials leave no room for savings,” Thuong said. After weighing his options for more than a week, he decided to move back to his hometown Thanh Hoa, where he found a job offering 20 per cent higher pay than his previous one in the city. Nhan and Thuong are part of a broader trend that is reshaping the labour landscape in HCM City. Over the past decade, the city has been a magnet for migrant labour from across Vietnam, thanks to its dynamic economy, infrastructure, and job opportunities.

If names like "The Battle of Grimdal's Tomb" or "The Battle of Red Axe Pass" resonate with you like "Crécy" would to a medieval English longbowman, then the wilfully low-fi graphics of SOVL: Fantasy Warfare are a Proustian rush waiting to happen. Units are represented by color-coded rectangles, with line art for artillery, monsters, and the terrain they fight around, all depicted from a top-down perspective as detached as any view of a tabletop. It looks rather a lot like a battle report from an old issue of Games Workshop's in-house White Dwarf magazine some time in the early 1990s. This powerfully straightforward art style makes manoeuvering in SOVL easy to grasp. It's a turn-based wargame where positioning matters—charging into a unit's flank or rear gives +1 to your combat results, and if a unit breaks and flees while surrounded, it's automatically destroyed. That results in some interesting decisions, like whether you want your gryphon to wing over that chasm in the middle of the battlefield to attack the artillery faster, or keep it on a flank to rear-charge one of your opponent's bigger regiments as soon as they engage one of your own. The focus is kept on those kind of sweeping, general-in-a-tent decisions because the rules are so simple. You won't have to learn Warhammer Fantasy Battle to play SOVL, which has its own rules you can read on the official Github . Though it resembles Warhammer in that you're rolling fistfuls of virtual six-siders to resolve each combat, you go straight from rolling to hit to rolling to save, skipping the roll-to-wound in the middle. The psychology rules have been streamlined as well, though I do miss having to roll to see if my giant's so drunk he falls over each turn. While SOVL does have online multiplayer I've been sticking to the singleplayer mode, which lets you play a campaign of linked battles broken up by random events on a map of nodes just like the one from Slay the Spire. You take the same army through two of those in a row, earning experience and gold, hiring mercenaries and buying banners and hoping you'll be ready to take on the final elite battle when it arrives. While you choose an army at the start, those mercenaries can be a pleasingly random selection, like when my vampire knight's army of the dead was joined by an Imperial captain on a gryphon and a unit of goblin wolf riders, as well as a feral giant to fight alongside my more thematically appropriate zombie one. The armies are renamed but still blatantly Warhammer-ish in their inspirations, with ratkin standing in for skaven and reptilians for lizardmen, for instance. Though SOVL is free-to-play, certain armies are only playable if you buy the relevant DLC, so if you want to play as the Darkborn Elves or Deepwood Guardians , for instance, you'll need to pay. The base game is available for zero dollars and zero cents on Steam .
