FORT COLLINS, Colo. – The Texas Rattlers recorded their second monster 90-point ride of the weekend on Sunday to beat their in-state rivals and go 2-0 at Canvas Stadium in Fort Collins, CO. With eight teams leaving Colorado with a 1-1 record, Texas is the league’s lone undefeated team atop the 2026 PBR Teams standings.

Head Coach Cody Lambert’s Rattlers went 6-for-10 inside the home of the Colorado State Rams.

In the first rendition of the 2026 Land.com Texas Cup, the Rattlers edged the Austin Gamblers (1-1) 265.55-257.45 in a shootout on Sunday afternoon, powered by a trio of big rides. Jean Carlos Teodoro (Mirante do Paranapanema, Brazil) recorded the Rattlers’ second 90-point ride in as many nights with 90.4 points on Yosemite Sam in the fourth frame, ultimately proving to be the game-winning ride. It was the first 90-point ride for Teodoro, who was making his season debut. Brady Fielder (Clermont, Queensland, Australia) (88.3 on Fringe Minority) and Daniel Keeping (Montague, Texas) (86.85 on Bruised Ashes) gave Texas the early lead in the opening two frames. Austin recorded three rides from Sage Steele Kimzey (Strong City, Okla.) (83.4 on Short Fire); 2018 PBR World Champion Kaique Pacheco (Itatiba, Brazil) (87.55 on Sava); and three-time PBR World Champion Jose Vitor Leme (Ribas do Rio Pardo, Brazil) (86.5 on Pretty Boy).

The Nashville Stampede (1-1) earned their first win of the season, defeating the Missouri Thunder (1-1) 177-87.25 to open the second day of PBR Bulls and Beats at Canvas Stadium. Getting Nashville on the board, Rogerio Venancio(Paranaita, Brazil) rode Smooth Violation for the second consecutive day, this time for 87.55 points in the third frame for the lead and ultimately the victory. An 89.45-point ride by Riquelmi Silva (Bom Jesus do Araguaia, Brazil) on Night Games added a buffer for the Stampede in the final frame. Missouri’s lone ride came in the third from Felipe Furlan(Sales Oliveira, Brazil) with 87.25 points against Mayor of Hogeye.

The Oklahoma Wildcatters’ (1-1) new Head Coach Greg Rhodes earned his first win at the helm with a 261.85-175.8 victory over the New York Mavericks (0-2) Sunday afternoon courtesy of a walk-off, game-winning ride by Eduardo Matos (Emilianopolis, Brazil). After the Mavericks took an early 86.3-0 lead when Winy dos Santos (Loanda, Brazil) solved Forbidden Legacy, New York bounced back with an 86.4-point ride by Mauricio Gulla Moreira (Gaviao Peixoto, Brazil) to lead by a tenth of a point. 2026 PBR Rookie of the Year Marco Rizzo (Quitman, Ga.) claimed the high score of the game – 89.4 points on Wild Child – to put pressure on Oklahoma. The Wildcatters responded in turn with an 88.35-point ride by Trace Redd (Malad, Idaho) on Huey before Matos (Emilianopolis, Brazil), subbing for Kase Hitt(Dickson, Okla.) for late-game re-ride, knocked down his first career walk-off ride with 87.2 points on Real Deal.

With rides in the first and last frames, the Kansas City Outlaws (1-1) rebounded from their loss Saturday night to shut out the defending Teams Champion Carolina Cowboys (1-1) 175.05-0 to end the weekend on a high note. Sandro Batista(Pedra Preta, Brazil) put the Outlaws ahead in the game’s first out with 85.3 points on Husky. Nursing a sore knee, 2024 PBR World Champion Cassio Dias (Sao F. de Sales, Brazil) put the pain aside and widened the winning score in the final frame with 89.75 points on XIT Knock Out.

The Florida Freedom (1-1) closed out the weekend with a 273.5-178.3 victory over the Arizona Ridge Riders (1-1). Florida’s win was powered by a pair of electrifying 90-point rides from Austin Richardson (Dallas, Texas) scoring 92.4 points on Stacked Deck in the opening frame and 2026 PBR World Champion John Crimber (Decatur, Texas) adding 91.9 points on Dirty Honey in the final frame. The Ridge Riders would pick up a 90-point ride of their own by Elizmar Jeremias (Anapu, Brazil) on High Road for 90.2 points. The Freedom’s Yan Victor Cunha (Assi Brasil, Brazil) (89.2 on The Gambler) and the Ridge Riders’ Luciano De Castro (Guzolandia, Brazil) (88.1 on Me More Cowboy) also notched qualified rides.
