USC QB Caleb Williams doesn’t sound interested in sitting out the rest of the season.
The Trojans are sitting at 6-2 after back-to-back losses to Utah and Notre Dame. The loss to the Fighting Irish came in blowout fashion, and there’s been some speculation the star QB could opt out now that USC has zero shot of making the College Football Playoff. Players opting out has become a normal trend, and Williams has a lot on the line as the first overall projected pick of the 2024 NFL Draft.
The Tampa Bay Buccaneers came shockingly close to catching a Hail Mary pass against the Bills, but Chris Godwin appeared to spot the ball too late.
Buffalo pulled off a 24-18 victory Thursday night over the Bucs to improve to 5-3. Tampa is now 3-4, but things came very close to going a different way.

Baker Mayfield launched a Hail Mary pass with four seconds left to attempt to tie things up at 24, and in theory, win with the extra point.
It sounds like there’s a real chance Texas fans could see Arch Manning get on the field Saturday.
The Longhorns play BYU in Austin this weekend, and Quinn Ewers is out after suffering an injury to his throwing shoulder.
The expectation once Ewers was out has been that Maalik Murphy will get the starting nod against the Cougars. That decision was officially announced Thursday after Murphy – the slated QB2 – and Manning split reps in practice.
However, don’t rule out Arch Manning just yet.
There’s a chance Arch Manning could play against BYU.
TCU reportedly knew about Michigan allegedly stealing signs long before the scandal broke to the public.
Jim Harbaugh and the Wolverines are consumed by chaos amid allegations the program used an elaborate and complex sign stealing scheme over the past couple years. Currently-suspended staffer Connor Stalions is believed to have been the pointman behind the alleged scheme.
Turns out the Horned Frogs knew about it nearly a year before the allegations became public, according to Yahoo Sports.
Damian Lillard closed the show at the urging of Giannis Antetokounmpo and their teammates as Milwaukee opened the book on a new era. 39 points is a great first impression.
The Bills bounced back from their New England loss, while the slide continued for Baker Mayfield and the Bucs.
Bills quarterback Josh Allen name-dropped a variety of star athletes while calling out audibles during Thursday night’s win over the Buccaneers.
Among the names called out by Allen in prime time included that of LeBron James, Bobby Wagner, and Jamal Adams. There was also some confusion among NFL fans at one point, when Buffalo used an audible that some people misheard as “Taylor Swift.”
After the game, Allen clarified his audible call and indicated that he had actually said “J.R. Smith” when changing the play at the line of scrimmage, via Andrew Siciliano of the NFL Network.
The beleaguered Cleveland QB snapped at a question about his desire to play, but his lingering injury is fueling speculation: “If it ain’t coming from me, then all that other sh** is bulls***.
Watson took exception to the suggestion that he doesn’t want to play for Cleveland. But his lingering injury is fueling speculation.
