🔮 BYU may not have star running back LJ Martin on Saturday, but the undefeated Cougars will make Notre Dame earn it, unlike the string of cupcakes the Irish have devoured so far.
🔮 This was a day for “mindfulness.” A day that Knicks coach Mike Brown used to remind his players that others can be going through their own personal issues they might not be aware of. Prior to practice Sunday, rather than watching film, Brown chose to discuss something beyond basketball. One example he used was the contract issues multiple players are dealing with. He also brought up the loss of his ex-wife in 2025 and the impact it had on his sons and him.
🔮 The night ended with Georgia outlasting Alabama in a highly anticipated matchup that lived up to the hype, a clash of two college football titans that could see one another again in the SEC championship game and the College Football Playoff as well.
🔮 Sunday against the Canucks will mark just the fifth NHL start of his young career.
🔮 Tight end Mason Taylor (thumb) practiced fully for the second straight day, a strong indication he could return on Sunday after missing the past two games.
🔮 A lot has gone wrong of late, since the Jets couldn’t get a key late stop in a frustrating seven-point loss to the Lions in Week 3.
🔮 Near the end of the hearing, she asked Sane’s attorneys, Elliot Sol Abrams and Kareem R. Vesssup, if they would like to bring in witnesses to further argue their case at a later date, and they took her up on that opportunity.
🔮 Nabers wouldn’t say he’s all the way back yet.
🔮 Before the Name, Image & Likeness (NIL) era, Bryce Underwood’s shaky play would’ve resulted in a seat on the bench.
🔮 “It’s not for me to say [how much of an impact he will make].
