U.S. gasoline prices continue their descent this week as demand for oil remains weak worldwide. The average price for a gallon of gas fell 6 cents from last week after several straight weeks of declines.

In its monthly report, the International Energy Agency said the slowdown in demand was heavily influenced by a slowing economy in China. The agency...

It was Coach Kalen DeBoer's third win as the Tide's head coach and it was utter domination. The Tide defense was pushed on the first drive by...
