A day after the Wisconsin football team fell at home to the Minnesota Golden Gophers, the Big Ten witnessed an all-time upset, with the Michigan Wolverines upsetting the Ohio State Buckeyes as a three-touchdown underdog. Entering with a lackluster offense and the absence of superstar defensive back Will Johnson, Michigan pulled off a remarkable 13-10 victory, with Ohio State quarterback Will Howard’s final pass falling incomplete. In the wake of Ohio State’s historic loss, one prominent Wisconsin football account went to social media, suggesting OSU head coach Ryan Day could leave, potentially unwillingly, the Buckeyes and join the Wisconsin Badgers.…

In 2025 (and potentially 2024), Devin Williams will not be in the backend of the Milwaukee Brewers bullpen. Following a disastrous finish to the 2024 campaign, one in which the usually reliable Williams surrendered a go-ahead three-run home run to New York Mets first baseman Pete Alonso with Milwaukee just two outs away from the NLCS, the Brew Crew declined his 2025 club option to begin this offseason. Williams, the author of a 1.66 ERA across his past three seasons, will be a hot commodity this winter if Milwaukee offloads the closer, likely fetching the Brewers a significant haul despite…

Mazulla emphasizes that he and the Celtics remain unfocused on things outside the team. However, The Boston frontman…

The Packers fell to the 18th spot in the most updated rankings, four ticks below where they sat heading into Week 5. Eric Edholm, the lead draft writer for NFL.com, put Monday’s loss squarely on the shoulder of Green Bay quarterback Jordan Love.
