- Indiana’s 22-game win streak ended in heartbreaking fashion — Nick Marsh hauled in a last-minute pass but came up inches short of keeping his foot inbounds.
- Ohio State QB Julian Sayin was hurt midway through the fourth quarter and left in a sling; coach said he’ll likely miss several weeks, a big blow to OSU’s title hopes.
- Despite heavy coverage, Heisman favorite Jeremiah Smith made a clutch end-zone catch and tied Braylon Edwards’ school record with his 39th career TD.
The news, distilled into what matters.
- Caleb Williams is expected to be activated for Sunday’s Week 6 road game at Atlanta after missing three games with a Grade 2 hamstring strain — he even hinted at a return in a TikTok clip.
- The Bears are 3-2 overall and went 2-1 with Case Keenum and Tyson Bagent while Williams was out.
- In two starts this season Williams has 407 passing yards, 2 passing TDs and 1 INT (92.0 passer rating) plus 107 rushing yards and 2 rushing TDs — highlighted by a 59-point Week 1 win.
- The NBA Cup returns soon — the first three editions had different champions (Lakers, Bucks, Knicks), and the West team in the Cup final reached the NBA Finals in each of the last two seasons; New York won both the Cup and the NBA Finals last year.
- Early DraftKings odds show Oklahoma City (+330) and San Antonio (+370) among the favorites, while teams like the Knicks (+1400) and Lakers (+2500) are listed as longer shots — plenty to debate for betting and bragging rights.
- Cup MVPs so far: LeBron James, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Jalen Brunson — who will be the breakout star this year?
- Victor Wembanyama — fresh off a Finals run, projected to again challenge for MVP and likely DPOY; can he turn Spurs contention into an MVP season?
- Shai Gilgeous‑Alexander — the two‑time reigning MVP continues his high‑scoring, winning formula with OKC; will he keep the streak going?
- Giannis Antetokounmpo in Miami — a blockbuster move and injury rehab storyline: can he revive his MVP peak in South Beach?
- Ohio State QB Julian Sayin left the Week 7 win at Indiana with an arm injury and is expected to miss several weeks.
- The Buckeyes still pulled out a 19-15 victory, with coach Ryan Day praising the rest of the team for stepping up.
- True freshman Luke Fahey came in as the backup — he’s seen limited action this season but filled in when needed.
- Backing the Under in Indiana vs. Ohio State — IU’s clutch, mistake-free style plus OSU’s injured O-line points to a low-scoring game.
- IU is a late-game machine (6-0 in one-score games since 2025); interesting to see if OSU can take away Jeremiah Smith and force Sayin to create.
- Taking Notre Dame over BYU in Provo — BYU’s one-dimensional attack and missing RB make it hard to sustain offense against the Irish over 60 minutes.
