ANN ARBOR, Mich. — Michigan's defense of the national championship has fallen woefully short. The Wolverines started the season ranked No. 9 in the AP Top 25, making them the third college football team since 1991 to be ranked worse than seventh in the preseason poll after winning a national title. Michigan (6-5, 4-4 Big Ten) failed to meet those modest expectations, barely becoming eligible to play in a bowl and putting the program in danger of losing six or seven games for the first time since the Brady Hoke era ended a decade ago. The Wolverines potentially can ease some of the pain with a win against rival and second-ranked Ohio State (10-1, 7-1, No. 2 CFP) on Saturday in the Horseshoe, but that would be a stunning upset. Ohio State is a 21 1/2-point favorite, according to the BetMGM Sportsbook, and that marks just the third time this century that there has been a spread of at least 20 1/2 points in what is known as "The Game." Michigan coach Sherrone Moore doesn't sound like someone who is motivating players with an underdog mentality. "I don't think none of that matters in this game," Moore said Monday. "It doesn't matter the records. It doesn't matter anything. The spread, that doesn't matter." How did Michigan end up with a relative mess of a season on the field, coming off its first national title since 1997? Winning it all with a coach and star player contemplating being in the NFL for the 2024 season seemed to have unintended consequences for the current squad. The Wolverines closed the College Football Playoff with a win over Washington on Jan. 8; several days later quarterback J.J. McCarthy announced he was skipping his senior season; and it took more than another week for Jim Harbaugh to bolt to coach the Los Angeles Chargers. In the meantime, most quality quarterbacks wanting to transfer had already enrolled at other schools and Moore was left with lackluster options. Davis Warren beat out Alex Orji to be the team's quarterback for the opener and later lost the job to Orji only to get it back again. No matter who was under center, however, would've likely struggled this year behind an offensive line that sent six players to the NFL. The Wolverines lost one of their top players on defense, safety Rod Moore, to a season-ending injury last spring and another one, preseason All-America cornerback Will Johnson, hasn't played in more than a month because of an injury. The Buckeyes are not planning to show any mercy after losing three straight in the series. "We're going to attack them," Ohio State defensive end Jack Sawyer said. "We know they're going to come in here swinging, too, and they've still got a good team even though the record doesn't indicate it. This game, it never matters what the records are." While a win would not suddenly make the Wolverines' season a success, it could help Moore build some momentum a week after top-rated freshman quarterback Bryce Underwood flipped his commitment from LSU to Michigan. "You come to Michigan to beat Ohio," said defensive back Quinten Johnson, intentionally leaving the word State out when referring to the rival. "That's one of the pillars of the Michigan football program. "It doesn't necessarily change the fact of where we are in the season, but it definitely is one of the defining moments of your career here at Michigan."

Attributing his party’s victory in the Channapatna byelection to “direct and indirect” support from JD(S) and BJP leaders and workers, Deputy Chief Minister D.K. Shivakumar on Sunday said people from across parties helped the Congress in this election. “If the BJP and JD(S) leaders had not supported us directly or indirectly, we would not have got so many votes. I congratulate them,” Mr. Shivakumar, who is also the Karnataka Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president told media persons in Kanakapura. “Many people from across parties have helped us in this election (Channapatna). The Congress had polled only 16,000 votes in the previous Assembly election. The number increased in the Lok Sabha election and it has further gone up now,” he siaid. “BJP leader C.N. Ashwath Narayan said on Saturday that he knew about our party candidate C.P. Yogeshwar’s victory beforehand. Is he dumb to say so having been the district in-charge Minister and Deputy Chief Minister? He knew the pulse of the people,” Mr. Shivakumar said. Referring to JD(S) leader G.T. Deve Gowda’s statement that he would join the Congress if people desired so, he said, “It is not just his (Mr. Gowda’s) opinion. A lot of people want him to do it. Many in the BJP have the same thoughts. Could we have won this election if BJP leaders had not supported us?” he said. Asked about Union Minister and JD(S) leader H.D. Kumaraswamy’s statement that money power defeated his son, Nikhil Kumaraswamy, in Channapatna, he said, “Then what do you call D.K. Suresh’s defeat in the Lok Sabha election? Mr. Yogeshwar was still in the BJP then. Mr. Kumaraswamy got his brother-in-law elected. How do you explain this?” ‘Promises will be fulfilled’ The Deputy Chief Minister assured the people of Channapatna that all promises made before the byelection would be fulfilled. “The Congress government will fulfil the aspirations of the people of Channapatna. We listened to the problems of the people of Channapatna after the seat was vacated. The people have blessed us now and we will repay that debt through development works,” he said. “District in-charge Minister Ramalinga Reddy has undergone a leg surgery. Before we go for the winter session of the legislature in Belagavi, we will hold a meeting to discuss and initiate all our promises,” he said. ‘Credit goes to all’ Asked about who gets the credit for the victory, he said, “This is not a victory that belongs to one or two individuals. This is a result of concerted efforts by all in the party.” Replying to a query on whether Ramanagara district has become “JD(S)-free” now, he said, “It is not important for us to make Ramanagara JD(S)- mukt . Their tally will go down from 19 to 18 in the Assembly now.” Meanwhile, addressing a women’s convention in Kanakapura, Mr. Shivakumar said the coalition government in Maharashtra copied the Congress government’s Gruha Lakshmi guarantee scheme. “They launched the ‘ Ladli Behna Yojana’ of giving women a financial benefit of ₹1,500 through direct benefit transfer. We had also announced a ‘Mahalakshmi’ scheme and had promised to give ₹3,000. They launched the scheme just six months before the election and this resulted in their victory now,” he said.

Already an avid fan of NFL football and a skilled enough golfer to compete in LPGA pro-am tournaments, reigning WNBA Rookie of the Year Caitlin Clark is reportedly interested in dipping her sneakers into another sport that isn't basketball. According to ESPN , the Indiana Fever All-Star point guard is part of an ownership group trying to bring a National Women's Soccer League expansion team to Cincinnati. More news : 76ers News: Joel Embiid, Paul George 'Furious' Someone Leaked Team Meeting Info "The NWSL Cincinnati bid team is thrilled that Caitlin Clark has joined our ownership group in pursuit of bringing a women's professional soccer team to our city," a rep from the ownership group, which also represents MLS team FC Cincinnati, told The Worldwide Leader. "Her passion for the sport, commitment to elevating women's sports in and around the Greater Cincinnati region, and influence as an athlete and role model for women and girls around the world, make her a vital part of our compelling bid to become the 16th team in the NWSL." In addition to the Cincinnati group, NWSL bidders are also attempting to attract an expansion team to cities including Cleveland, Denver, Nashville, and Philadelphia. The new club would hit the pitch in 2026 and, along with a previously announced expansion team that was awarded to Boston, grow the NWSL to 16 teams. Speaking to the media ahead of the NWSL's championship match, league commissioner Jessica Berman confirmed Cincinnati was a finalist in the bidding process for her league's 16th team. She also confirmed Clark was involved. "Her accomplishments and contributions to women's sports is incredible, historic. It's changed the game for everyone, and she's amazing," Berman said of the 22-year-old hooper. "Having her interest in the NWSL is an honor. We couldn't be more excited about her having shared her own personal story about having been a young soccer player and loving the game." More news: Caitlin Clark Apologizes After Striking Spectator With Ball at Pro-AM "Her messaging around being a multi-sport athlete is so important for young kids who aspire to be just like her, and the future is bright for how we could potentially work with her or others who are influencers and interested in engaging and growing our league." The NWSL's championship match will take place tomorrow when the Orlando Pride takes on the Washington Spirit. If Clark wants to cement her team's bid and bring an NWSL team to Cincy, it might be a good idea for her to be in attendance.
