Coach Gary Patterson said Wednesday that Fields has been frustrated by the foot he hurt at Texas Tech on Sept. 12. Fields last season was the Big 12 defensive player of the year as a true freshman when he had 10 sacks. After an unspecified violation of university and team rules during the offseason, he missed the season opener and parts of two other games this summer as penalty. Because Fields played in only three games, he could get a medical redshirt and have three seasons of eligibility remaining after this season....

How Pep is changing City’s defence The forward suffered a hip injury against Bordeaux on Saturday, and despite hopes he would at least be fit enough to make the bench against City, he is not included in the 18-man squad. City, meanwhile, have opted for Fernandinho over Yaya Toure in central midfield while Aleksander Kolarov partners John Stones at the heart of defence. Otherwise Pep Guardiola’s side are as expected, with Raheem Sterling, Leroy Sane and Sergio Aguero leading the line....
