Arkansas receiver Andrew Armstrong said Tuesday that he is entering the NFL Draft. Later in the day, a school spokesman told reporters that Armstrong will skip the Razorbacks' bowl game. The destination isn't yet known. Armstrong led the Southeastern Conference in both receptions (78) and receiving yards (1,140) but caught just one touchdown in 11 games this season. His catches and yardage were both second-most in Arkansas history behind Cobi Hamilton, who had 90 receptions for 1,335 yards in 2012. "It's been a journey for the books and I wouldn't trade it for anything because it has made me into the man I am today," Armstrong said of his Razorbacks tenure in a social media post. "... I will never forget all the moments that were shared here in Fayetteville." Armstrong played two seasons at Texas A&M-Commerce before transferring to Arkansas ahead of the 2023 season. In two seasons with the Razorbacks, he caught 134 passes for 1,904 yards and six scores. --Field Level Media

Channel 10’s The Cheap Seats co-hosts Tim McDonald and Melanie Bracewell ruffled some feathers at the 2024 GQ Australia Men of the Year Awards, held on Wednesday night at Sydney’s White Bay Power Station. The pair, known for their sharp humour, didn’t hold back as they delivered a cutting monologue that had the celebrity-packed audience laughing- and cringing. "Tonight is all about honouring the unsung heroes," McDonald began, before Bracewell cheekily added: "Yes, hot, rich, successful people." Throughout the night, they poked fun at big names, including fellow Channel 10 star Osher Gunsberg. "A lot of outstanding people are here tonight," McDonald said. Bracewell nodded knowingly: "[Social media stars] The Inspired Unemployed are here." McDonald quipped back: "You mean Jack and Falcon?" to which Bracewell replied, deadpan: "No, sorry, Osher Gunsberg and Daniel Ricciardo." Radio icon Jackie 'O' Henderson’s memoir also got a roasting. "Finally, someone who talks about her life for five hours a day was ready to share her story," Bracewell said. McDonald added: "Jackie's book bravely recounts her struggles with addiction ... to Prada handbags and 20-year-old men." For the influencers in the room, Bracewell offered a helpful explanation: "A 'book' is like a really long Instagram caption." Even the event’s venue wasn’t spared. "Where better to honour the next generation of Aussie talent than at a 112-year-old decommissioned power station?" McDonald joked. Bracewell, ever quick, chimed in: "Some of you may recognise us from Channel 10... which was also decommissioned in 1984." As the awards rolled on, the evening celebrated the best of Australian and international talent. Australian actor Sam Worthington was crowned GQ Australia’s Man of the Year, presented by his wife, model Lara Worthington. Emma McKeon won Sportsperson of the Year, while Noemie Fox took home Breakthrough Sportsperson of the Year. Eddie Betts, former AFL star, was honoured as Sporting Icon of the Year. Felix Mallard, best known for his acting roles, was named Actor of the Year. American model and musician Gabbriette was crowned International Sensation. Cooper Koch, star of Monsters, won International Actor, while country pop star Orville Peck took home International Musician of the Year. Peck, known for his masked persona and flamboyant style, added his own humour to the night. "Some of you may know me as Orville Peck, the country star, and some of you may know me as the yodelling poof who wears a mask," he joked during his speech. "Either way, I’m very happy to be here." Peck also took a moment to celebrate Australia’s contributions to global talent. "I really love Australia... you gave us Bailey Smith, Chris Hemsworth and Hugh Jackman, so on behalf of gay people everywhere, thank you very much," he said, drawing big laughs from the audience. Speaking to SkyNews.com.au on Thursday, McDonald said it was an honour to be "even allowed into the building", let alone to host the awards. "I reckon because it’s the Men of the Year awards all the actual talent are in the crowd, so they need an average man to hand out their trophies and point out where the bathrooms are," he said. According to McDonald, the stars on the roasting hot seat were none the wiser about their foreboding roast but were happy to still chat with the comedians afterwards. "We didn’t speak to any of the celebs beforehand - the event security kept us 500 metres from the actual stars at all times," McDonald joked. "But afterwards we met a lot of them which was great, and some of their legal teams, which was less great. "Plus I reckon we roasted each other more than anyone, we try to make sure no one in the crowd cops it more than we do!"Georgia loses QB Carson Beck (arm) during SEC title game
