Hydro Flask Cyber Monday .The?Bulls?star smiled with pride on Friday while discussing the end of the duos bet, which closed with the Chicago Cubs knocking off the Cleveland Indians in Game 7 early Thursday morning in a 10-inning thriller.James, an Akron, Ohio, native, was hoping the MLB counterparts to his?Cleveland Cavaliers?would win. Wade, a Chicagoland native, was leaning on the Cubs to pull it off.As the loser of the bet, James must dress up in a full Cubs uniform before a game in Chicago on Dec. 2.Weve been working on it, Wade said after Fridays shootaround. Weve been talking. My stylist has been talking to his stylist. Its got to fit right and everything. So my stylist has been talking to his stylist, they actually had a conversation before Game 7 to get the sizes of whoever loses ... hopefully he comes head to toe in December when he walks in here.Wade laughed recalling how he went through the different styles of jerseys the Cubs have as he tried to pick one for James.Its funny because I got a picture of different uniforms, Wade said. Of like which one you think he should wear of the Cubs uniforms. Just fun, man.Which one did he go with?I dont know the styles of them, Wade said. It was like a white, a gray, a blue, and I sent them two options to pick from. Just stuff like that.Wade, who will also take home some bottles of the pairs favorite wine as part of his win, said he and James havent been exchanging that much trash talk since the World Series ended.Just humble brags, Wade said. No junk talking. Obviously I did all my talking on social media, going back and forth together. Just having a little fun with it. Thats what its all about. I think one thing with me and him getting involved in just a simple, playful bet. [That] even brought attention from people who didnt even watch baseball.Theyre the basketball fans of each of us and brought even more attention to the World Series so it was good to be a part of it. It was an incredible game. Both teams put on a heck of a championship. And Im glad we [the Cubs] came out on the winning side and I dont have to wear Cleveland Indians stuff. It was fun.

Uniteds eighth defeat of a wretched campaign means Liverpool, which currently occupies the fourth and final Champions League place, could go nine points clear of its fierce rival by beating West Bromwich Albion on Sunday.

FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. -- With a taste of early season success for a change, Arkansas coach Bret Bielema wasnt about to let the No. 24 Razorbacks get complacent after a double-overtime win over TCU last week.Especially considering Arkansas two victories entering this weekend had come by a total of four points.Led once again by the emergence of Austin Allen at quarterback and a defensive effort that included the Razorbacks second interception return for a touchdown in as many weeks, Arkansas (3-0) didnt let up. The Razorbacks won for the ninth time in 10 games with a 42-3 victory over Texas State on Saturday night.I knew our guys were going to hear about how good they played last week, and I really put the screws to them about turning the page, Bielema said. I think they did a pretty good job of that, because in this league if you worry too much about what happened yesterday, tomorrow will hit you in the face.Allen threw for 241 yards and a pair of touchdowns before being pulled late in the third quarter, and he was supported by a defense that held the Bobcats (1-1) to 105 yards of total offense.That effort included Ryan Pulleys 25-yard interception return for a touchdown in the second quarter that put Arkansas up 21-0, a play that followed linebacker Brooks Ellis return for a score a week earlier against the Horned Frogs.The defensive performance was one of the Razorbacks best in four seasons under Bielema -- with Arkansas outgaining Texas State 350-26 in total yardage in the first half and holding the Bobcats to 22 yards rushing on 26 carries in the game.The Razorbacks had four sacks in the win, with defensive lineman Jeremiah Ledbetter leading the way with 1 1/2 sacks and a pair of pass breakups.I have to give credit to my defensive line for creating the pressure, Pulley said.Texas State quarterback Tyler Jones, who matched the school record with 418 yards passing two weeks ago in a triple-overtime win over Ohio, finished 11-of-26 passing for 83 yards on Saturday.The Bobcats trailed 35-0 at halftime, and they didnt reach Arkansas side of the field until late in the first hallf -- and only after a Razorbacks fumble gave them the starting field position.

Theyre deserving of a Top 25 spot, I believe.Arkansas running back Rawleigh Williams topped the 100-yard rushing mark for the second straight game, finishing with 121 yards and two touchdowns on 19 carries.THE TAKEAWAYTexas State: The Bobcats put together an impressive performance in their season-opening triple-overtime win over Ohio, but they were outmatched against Arkansas. Texas State can look ahead, however, to an easier Sun Belt Conference schedule and count on improvement from the experienced Jones, who made his 33rd career start on Saturday.Arkansas: As convincing as the win was for the Razorbacks, it also came with an element of relief -- particularly after they struggled in a one-point win over Louisiana Tech two weeks ago. Now Arkansas can enter next weeks SEC opener full of confidence, and with thoughts of starting the season 5-0 before its next home game against No. 1 Alabama on Oct. 8.SHORT ON TIMEWith Arkansas ahead 42-3 after three quarters and inclement weather nearing the area, both coaches agreed to shorten the game by five minutes and play only a 10-minute fourth quarter.POLL IMPLICATIONS:Arkansas: A week after returning to the Top 25 following a double-overtime win over TCU, the Razorbacks are all but assured of moving up after their dominating performance on Saturday -- setting up an early Southeastern Conference showdown against Texas A&M next week.UP NEXTTexas State: The schedule doesnt immediately get any easier for the Bobcats, who once again faced a ranked opponent when they host No. 6 Houston next week.Arkansas: The Razorbacks return to Texas for the second time in three weeks when they face the No. 17 Aggies in the annual Southwest Classic at AT&T Stadium.---AP college football website:
