The star receiver – a third-round draft pick by the Colts in 2012 – missed three weeks due to a calf injury earlier in the campaign. The 30-year-old returned to action in Week 12 against the Houston Texans but made two crucial drops which ultimately cost the Colts in a 20-17 defeat. “I’ve got to make that,” Hilton said. “That’s what I get paid for. I’ve gotta make it. I let my team down today....

Instead, they flopped. Indianapolis lost to Jacksonville 26-11. Quarterback Carson Wentz was poor, failing to reach the 200 passing yards against a porous Jags defense. Now, Wentz is gone. In his stead is Matt Ryan, a one-time NFL MVP who is clearly past his prime but still appears to have a lot to offer. The Colts also have first-team All-Pro running back Jonathan Taylor. So, what does that mean for Indianapolis’ chances in 2022?...

LSU (‘19) is the only other school that’s had the luxury to call itself National Champion in the CFP era, but with the playoff expanding to 12 teams in the near future, more schools are hoping to add their names to this list.

According to Schielke, forgetting to pay for items at a store is one of the most common and well-known symptoms witnessed in elderly persons suffering from dementia....

The man, Bradley Bunn, 53, said he was worried about people storming his home and was preparing for that possibility. “I don’t have a lot of experience in this. I haven’t done this before,” Bunn told an FBI special agent, according to court records. “I bought this stuff at Jax,” Bunn added. Bunn is accused of violating federal law prohibiting the possession of unregistered explosives.

That’s OK — the final leg of the 2019 season will really heat up in the second week of November, so this week’s slate of games will serve as the calm before the storm. Even so, the two headliners this week still have College Football Playoff and New Year’s Day 6 implications.

That said, the season enters November with the Pac-12 and Mid-American Conference returning to action and several teams finding separation. Everyone is playing, and while the race might be in different stages across the FBS, the chase is on.

With that in mind, Sporting News breaks down the College Football Playoff picture with four teams in, four teams out and four teams to watch heading into the first week of November:...

Would Ohio State and Alabama be the fifth team in the Week 14 CFP top 25? Whoever was placed in that position stood to slide into the final four with a loss by one of the top four teams during conference championship weekend.

No. 7 Penn State and No. 8 Oklahoma State lost on Saturday, making it seven times through eight weeks of the college football season that at least one team ranked in the top 10 has lost. It also marked the sixth time that multiple such teams lost on the same day.
