Atletico Madrid, Napoli and RB Leipzig have all dropped down from the Champions League and will all fancy themselves against those who lie in wait, while Celtic also managed to squeeze into the Europa League .

Christian Benteke's penalty greed in Crystal Palace's last match could play right into Everton's hands, ahead of the January transfer window. The Belgium worldwide, without a goal since May, was denied by Asmir Begovic as Palace slipped back to the bottom of the Premier League .
The Mustangs lost former coach Chad Morris to Arkansas shortly after the regular season ended. "Growing up as a kid, I was an SMU fan", Dykes said Tuesday . It's most definitely an interesting hire for a Mustangs program that turned it around a great deal under Morris.
