<p>The Dallas Cowboys will face an Atlanta Falcons defense without linebacker Sean Weatherspoon on Sunday night.</p> <p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/nfl/teams/atlanta-falcons">Atlanta Falcons</a> will be without linebacker <span>Sean Weatherspoon</span> when they host the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Dallas Cowboys</a> on Sunday night. Weatherspoon suffered a high ankle sprain in the fourth quarter of last week's game against the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bleedinggreennation.com/">Philadelphia Eagles</a>.</p>
<p><a href="https://twitter.com/Atlanta_Falcons/status/265242095244165120">Also on the inactive list for the Falcons</a>: quarterback <span>Dominique Davis</span>, wide receiver <span>Kevin Cone</span>, offensive guard <span>Garrett Reynolds</span>, offensive tackle <span>Lamar Holmes</span>, defensive tackle <span>Travian Robertson</span> and defensive end <span>Jonathan Massaquoi</span>.</p>
<p><a href="https://twitter.com/nickeatman/status/265245003721355264">Here's the list of inactive players</a> for the Cowboys: center <span>Phil Costa</span>, linebacker <span>Dan Connor</span>, running back <span>DeMarco Murray</span>, free safety <span>Matt Johnson</span>, defensive end <span>Sean Lissemore</span>, free safety <span>Charlie Peprah</span> and wide receiver <span>Andre Holmes</span>.</p>
<p>The Cowboys' running game is without its starting center and running back with Costa and Murray being out. This means Dallas will have to explore its depth on the offensive line, as well as trust <span>Felix Jones</span> with the ball carrying duties.</p>
<p>The Falcons are 7-0, remaining as the league's only undefeated team going into the game. The Cowboys are 3-4.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/texas-longhorns">Texas Longhorns</a> took a 21-14 first quarter lead over the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/oklahoma-st-cowboys">Oklahoma State Cowboys</a> in Stillwater. At first, it seemed that the Longhorns' defense was going to be in for a long night, after allowing <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/115354/joseph-randle">Joseph Randle</a> to break loose for a 69-yard touchdown run.</p>
<p>Randle broke tackles of two Texas defensive backs to get free down the left side. But quarterback <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/134590/david-ash">David Ash</a>, <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/134587/jaxon-shipley">Jaxon Shipley</a> and the Longhorns had some offense in store. First Ash found Shipley for a 44-yard touchdown pass, right on the money, in the back right corner of the end zone.</p>
<p>Then Shipley found himself wide open on a blown coverage assignment by the Cowboys, which led to another touchdown pass from Ash, this time from 20 yards out.</p>
<p>The Cowboys tied the game after another missed tackle in the Longhorns' secondary</p>
<p>D.J. Monroe regained the lead for Texas with a 100-yard kickoff return, this time with the Cowboys missing a couple of tackles.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Dallas Cowboys</a> hold a 10-7 lead against the <a href="https://www.bucsnation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> at halftime on Sunday. Neither team had been able to get into a rhythm offensively, until the end of the second quarter when <span>Tony Romo</span> and the Cowboys started up their two-minute offense.</p>
<p>Romo made a few plays to <span>Kevin Ogletree</span> and <span>Dez Bryant</span> that moved the Cowboys down the field, seemingly putting them in position to convert on another field goal before the end of the first half.</p>
<p>But <span>Gerald McCoy</span> got to Tony Romo on a second down attempt that disrupted the Cowboys' momentum and left them out of field goal range. There was a Hail Mary throw from Romo to end the half, but it was batted down by a crew of Tampa Bay defenders.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Dallas Cowboys</a> and <a href="https://www.bucsnation.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Tampa Bay Buccaneers</a> are tied 7-7 after one quarter of action at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, Texas. Dallas responded to Tampa Bay's touchdown earlier in the quarter with an 11-yard touchdown run by <span>DeMarco Murray</span>.</p>
<p>Tampa Bay quarterback <span>Josh Freeman</span> led the Bucs on a six-play, 29-yard touchdown drive that was the result of a <span>Tony Romo</span> interception that landed in the hands of <span>Aqib Talib</span>.</p>
<p>The Buccaneers began the second quarter with a first down on their own 30-yard line. On the second play from scrimmage, Freeman patted the ball in the pocket and almost coughed up the possession. <span>DeMarcus Ware</span> gave him little time, tackling him and forcing a fumble.</p>
<p>Fortunately for the Bucs, they were able to maintain possession on that play.</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/teams/baylor-bears">Baylor Bears</a> trail the Sam Houston State Bearkats at halftime, 20-10, in what might not be so much of a cakewalk for Baylor after all.</p>
<p>Baylor traded field goals with SHSU in the first quarter before things picked up in the second. The Bearkats took a surprising lead in the second quarter on <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="#">Miguel Antonio's</a> second field goal of the game. Baylor responded with a five-play, 77-yard touchdown drive capped by a 22-yard touchdown pass to from <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/75553/nick-florence">Nick Florence</a> to <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="http://www.sbnation.com/ncaa-football/players/35543/terrence-williams">Terrence Williams</a>.</p>
<p>It was all SHSU from there. Quarterback Brian Bell rushed for a touchdown to regain the lead for the Kats. Then Bell connected with running back Timothy Flanders for a 26-yard touchdown toss to give SHSU a two-possession advantage at halftime.</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">Cowboys</a> went on the road in their 2012 season opener and defeated their division rival and defending Super Bowl champion <a href="https://www.bigblueview.com/" class="sbn-auto-link">New York Giants</a> on Wednesday night, 24-17.</p>
<p>Dallas took a 7-3 lead with just over a minute to go in the first half. But in the third quarter, the Cowboys and Giants traded touchdowns, setting up the scene for a dramatic fourth quarter led by quarterbacks <span>Tony Romo</span> and <span>Eli Manning</span>.</p>
<p>Romo was brilliant, completing 22 of his 29 pass attempts for 307 yards and a 129.5 passer rating. Manning had a rough night with his marquee receivers, particularly <span>Victor Cruz</span>, dropping passes. The Super Bowl MVP completed just 21 of his 32 pass attempts for a 94.9 passer rating.</p>
<p>Cowboys wide receiver <span>Kevin Ogletree</span> was the star of this game, with the team having uncertainty at the wide receiver because of <span>Miles Austin's</span> and Dez Bryant's health issues. Ogletree caught eight balls for 114 yards and two touchdowns. Bryant and Miles had four catches apiece — 85 yards for Bryant and 73 for Austin (one of which included a touchdown).</p>

<p>The <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bloggingtheboys.com/">Dallas Cowboys</a> lead the <a class="sbn-auto-link" href="https://www.bigblueview.com/">New York Giants</a> 7-3 at halftime of the 2012 NFL season opener between the two NFC East rivals. With less than two minutes to go in the first half, Cowboys quarterback <span>Tony Romo</span> scrambled out of the pocket as the Giants' defensive front pressured Dallas' offensive line, and found wide receiver <span>Kevin Ogletree</span> for a 10-yard touchdown score to give the Cowboys their first lead of the game.</p>

<p>After a scoreless first quarter, the Giants got on the board first with a 22-yard field goal by <span>Lawrence Tynes</span>. Later in the quarter, it took the Cowboys offense seven plays to go 73 yards in 2:33 for the touchdown.</p>
<p>It's worth noting that Romo was sacked on the second play from scrimmage and he did throw an interception.</p>
