The end of Scream 5
The end of Scream 5 is a zinger aimed at toxic fandom
OneOne thing that separates Scream and its sequels from other long-running slasher-film series — apart from the fact that most of its characters actually understand the significance of telling someone “I’ll be right back” when a knife-wielding masked killer is on the loose — is the fact that these movies are structured as whodunits. Though the Ghostface mask has become as iconic as Jason Voorhees’ hockey mask, Freddy Krueger’s burnt face, or Michael Myers’ half-melted William Shatner mask, the legion of Ghostface killers in Scream movies never develop supernatural resistance to death. It’s a different (and very mortal) person underneath every time — usually more than one, as characters in the newest Scream point out. This makes Scream films into particularly spoiler-sensitive slashers. (No offense to Friday the 13th fans, but can most of those sequels be spoiled at all?)
But as is often the case with the Scream series, the identity of the killer matters less than what the movie is saying about its killers. So let’s talk through the revelations in the final section of the 2022 Scream, number five in the series, and what they mean for the previous films in the franchise. Fair warning: There will be major Scream spoilers from here on out.
[Ed. Note: He isn’t kidding. Ending spoilers for the 2022 Scream, aka Scream 5, ahead.]
IS RIAN JOHNSON IN THE NEW SCREAM MOVIE?
If you ask Mindy Meeks-Martin (Jasmin Savoy Brown) early in the new Scream, she might explain that the real villain of the whole series is Looper director Rian Johnson. But the series she’s referring to is Stab, the movies-within-the-movies based on the events of Scream and its sequels. When real-world events ran out, the Stab series evidently went off on the usual slasher-movie tangents. (Back in Scream 4, someone mentioned an entry that included time travel.)
The most recent Stab movie is apparently the eighth installment, rechristened just Stab (sound familiar?) and directed by the “Knives Out guy,” as one character refers to Johnson. He isn’t mentioned by name, and he doesn’t make a personal appearance. He might as well, though; the new Scream crew is clearly thinking about the divisive, rabid response to Johnson’s Star Wars movie The Last Jedi. Mindy rants and raves about how ill-received Stab 8 was, and how it lost everything people loved about the original Stab and undermined the films that came before it. So to sum up, the last Stab was a Rian Johnson-directed eighth installment of a long-running franchise that made certain corners of the internet absolutely lose its mind over perceived slights to a nostalgic property. Noted.
A greater ambiguity in this scene is what Scream 5 is saying about the never-ending Last Jedi controversy. Like her uncle Randy, the designated film geek of the first two Screams (with a video cameo in part three), Mindy is a fast-talking movie nerd who’s funny and likable. That makes her veiled shots at Last Jedi seem like a voice of expertise rather than fan entitlement. For a while, it seems like the movie is trying to have its cake and eat it too: satirizing the out-of-proportion fan derangement over The Last Jedi while also recasting Johnson’s thoughtful tweaks to Star Wars as equivalent to one of those late-period Halloween sequels that go off in nonsensical and vaguely insulting directions.
After all, Scream 5’s point-of-view character Sam (Melissa Barrera), who has returned to Woodsboro after years away after her sister was attacked by someone in a Ghostface mask, doesn’t seem to have much opinion about movie franchises. She depends on people like Mindy (or her sister Tara, who claims to prefer “elevated horror”) to define the rules.

Auburn football loses fifth straight to end Bryan Harsin's first season
Auburn football loses fifth straight to end Bryan Harsin's first season in Birmingham Bowl vs. Houston
BIRMINGHAM— Auburn's Birmingham Bowl appearance was a chance to win in front of a pseudo-home crowd and end a four-game losing streak, bringing momentum into the offseason.
Instead, 2021 ends in more bitter defeat.
Auburn rallied from down 10 pointsbut lost 17-13 on a late touchdown against No. 21 Houston on Tuesday. Bryan Harsin's first season as Auburn coach ends 6-7 after the Tigers were ranked in the top 15. It's the program's first losing season since 2012.
Harsin's play-calling had personnel in mind, until the end
With Harsin calling plays for the first time, Auburn was hesitant to run between the tackles — a product of the depleted offensive line, which had a backup center and right tackle. On ared-zone third-and-2 in the first half, running back Tank Bigsby was stuffed up the middle. A third-and-1 quarterback sneak in the third quarter went nowhere. Harsin adjusted and called more plays to the outside.

He still wanted to find ways to get the ball to Bigsby, his best play-maker, after just eight carries for the running back in the first half.The sophomore was used as a receiver more than ever (five catches, 68 yards).
On a tone-setting third down in the second halfwith Auburn trailing 10-3, a smart screen pass gave Bigsby open space to run 51 yards. He had another reception for 12 the next play. His outside zone carries increased. It forced Houston's defense to spread and create more holes up the middle.
Harsin seemed mindful of Auburn's strengths and weaknesses in his play-calling, until the game's final moments. Auburn trailed 17-13 with a third-and-2. It was the Tigers' last chance. They threw incomplete twice. No touch for Bigsby.

All-Americasenior cornerback Roger McCreary opted out of the bowl game. Senior Smoke Monday was ejected for targeting in the third quarter, ending his Auburn career. Jaylin Simpson and Nehemiah Pritchett, the future of the cornerback position, were left to fend off Houston star receiver Nathaniel Dell until Simpson was also ejected for targeting in the fourth quarter.

OMICRON 5 SYMPTOMS THAT MAY MEAN YOU WERE INFECTED WITH COVID-19 OMICRON VARIANT
5 SYMPTOMS THAT MAY MEAN YOU WERE INFECTED WITH COVID-19 OMICRON VARIANT
One major COVID symptom is missing from omicron variant
People across the country have started to report their symptoms from the omicron variant of the novel coronavirus, giving researchers and potential patients a chance to understand what could happen to them if they’re infected.
But the early reports also suggest that some common COVID-19 symptoms don’t occur among those who are infected with the omicron variant.

5 omicron variant symptoms you shouldn’t ignore
The omicron variant could give fully vaccinated people ‘super immunity’
Per NBC News, most evidence about omicron variant symptoms comes from anecdotal data taken by infected patients. This is why some of the most common omicron variant symptoms include cough, fatigue, tiredness and congestion.
However, Dr. Katherine Poehling, an infectious disease specialist and vaccinologist at Atrium Health Wake Forest Baptist in North Carolina, told NBC News that one major COVID-19 symptom is missing among the anecdotal data — the loss of taste and smell.
In fact, some research suggests that 48% of people with the original mutation of the novel coronavirus had a loss of smell, and 41% had a loss of taste. But among a small group of omicron patients, that number jumped down to 23% for loss of taste and 12% for loss of smell, according to The New York Times.
“It’s unclear, though, whether these differences are because of Omicron or some other factor, like vaccination status,” per The New York Times.
Still, it’s clear that the omicron variant has been creating unique symptoms among patients. For example, the omicron variant, in many ways, might feel like the traditional cold, according to professor Tim Spector, who helps run the ZOE COVID symptoms app.
Similarly, Dr. Amir Khan, a physician with the U.K.’s National Health Service, told the U.K. newspaper The Sun that night sweats have become a common omicron variant symptom among patients he has seen.
And don’t forget what Dr. Angelique Coetzee, chairwoman of the South African Medical Association who first sounded the alarm on the omicron variant, told the “BBC Sunday” at the beginning of all of this. Her patients had “unusual symptoms” from omicron, including body aches and pains with a bit of a headache,” she told the BBC.

UCF VS FLORIDA HIGHLIGHTS | 2021 GASPARILLA BOWL | 2022
UCF VS FLORIDA HIGHLIGHTS | 2021 GASPARILLA BOWL | 2022 COLLEGE FOOTBALL HIGHLIGHTS
UCF Knights beat Florida for first college football win over Gators, Sunshine State bragging rights
As the final seconds ticked off UCF's 29-17 win over Florida in the Union Home Mortgage Gasparilla Bowl on Thursday night, the UCF football Twitter handle was quick to make a declaration: "Sunshine STATEment."
Indeed, UCF not only made history with its first win over Florida. It was also UCF's first win over any Power 5 program in the state. At 9-4, UCF finishes this season with the best record in Florida -- the same way it did in 2017 and 2018.
For Florida, it was another embarrassing loss to end a season filled with them. The Gators opened the season ranked No. 14. By the end of it, coach Dan Mullen had been fired and they finished 6-7, their first losing season since 2017. It was also the program's first loss to an in-state school not named Florida State or Miami since Stetson in 1938. And the Knights won the game despite a long injury list to some of their top players, including quarterback Dillon Gabriel, who is no longer with the team after transferring to UCLA.
To be sure, UCF is no longer the program that lost the last meeting between the schools 42-0 in 2006. The Knights have won a combined 50 games over the past five years, their most in any five-season span in program history.
And they are headed to the Big 12, eager to join the ranks of the "Big Three" in Florida and to finally have it be known as the "Big Four" once and for all.
"This is just the beginning," Malzahn said on the television broadcast after the game. "I really believe we've got big dreams, we've got big goals. We can win the whole thing here. Tonight was just the first step. Recruiting's going to go really good now."
