data-mm-id=”_qsfzlrr3h”>Pat McAfee and College GameDay are a perfect match. That does not mean everything always goes perfectly. ESPN was reminded of that on today's GameDay, when McAfee got a bit too worked up about Alabama's chances to cover the spread today and cursed live on air. Observe, around the 1:40 mark of the below video: They tried to bleep me there.. I have to remember I’m on a Disney channel when I get going with that damn hammer.. it’s tough. I apologize.. anyways, GREAT day to have to a great day @CollegeGameday.. Let’s GOOOO pic.twitter.com/Eyg26Jz0yR— Pat McAfee (@PatMcAfeeShow) October 3, 2020"Roll sumb*tch Tide" is a great way to start off Saturday morning. Who doesn't get that excited when talking about Nick Saban beating his opponent by 18 points? I know I do. I'm sure the higher-ups here are not terribly pleased with McAfee, but that's part of the deal with him. His enthusiasm and fun level is unrivaled at ESPN, but sometimes stuff like this happens. It's a fine trade-off. Good content, too.

A host of new signings could make Bundesliga debuts this weekend, with a familiar face at Borussia Dortmund set to command the most attention.
In the first round of fixtures since the transfer window closed, Dortmund appear likely to hand a second debut to Japan playmaker Shinji Kagawa, who rejoined the club from Manchester United at the end of last month, when they play host to Freiburg.

Competition: Dutch Eredivisie
Market: PSV to win against Breda
Odds:
PSV Eindhoven travel to the Rat Verlegh Stadion to face NAC Breda in the Dutch Eredivisie on Sunday afternoon, and are big favourites to pick up all three points with how the two sides have started the new season. PSV could go top with a win this weekend, while Breda risk dropping to the foot of the table if they come unstuck.
As for the hosts, Stijn Vreven’s NAC Breda side find themselves just one place above the relegation zone after suffering defeat to Vitesse in their first game of the campaign. Breda lost 4-1 on the day and could well struggle to keep a side like PSV quiet as a result. Defeat could even see them end the weekend 18th.

Roberto Firmino scored twice as Brazil eased past Bolivia 5-0 in a dominant display to kick off their 2022 World Cup qualifying campaign.
Brazil barely raised a sweat in their opening CONMEBOL qualifier on Friday, outclassing Bolivia thanks to Firmino s brace, while Marquinhos and Philippe Coutinho were also on target, to go with a Jose Carrasco own goal.
