Penn State football may need a week off as much as anyone in the country.
The Nittany Lions must attempt to retool themselves in light of their disheartening 3-4 start, including the 21-18 meltdown defeat at Michigan — their fourth straight in Big Ten action — to start the Matt Campbell era.
The Lions have lost each of their conference games after beginning Campbell's first season in State College with three decisive, non-conference victories.
Penn State will not play this weekend, their only open date of the 2026 season. Its next game will be on Halloween against the Purdue Boilermakers (2-5, 1-3 Big Ten) in Beaver Stadium.
The Lions, stunningly enough, are in the middle of a four-game Big Ten losing streak for the second straight season. Last year, they lost six straight under fired head coach James Franklin and interim leader Terry Smith before winning at Michigan State.

Packers' Zaire Franklin shares a subtle warning about Green Bay's defense appeared first on ClutchPoints. Add ClutchPoints as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Green Bay is 4-2 on the season heading into Week 7 in Detroit after a 23-13 home win over the Cowboys that included a blunt postgame ****** sment from coach Matt LaFleur. LaFleur wants his team to focus on the details, something Jordan Love did well and linebacker Zaire Franklin's defense also excelled at in Week 6.
Franklin spoke to Matt Schneidman of The Athletic after the game during which he gave a warning on the Packers' hungry defense.
"I think it's just a credit to who we can be…Obviously we've got a lot of things we can clean up but I feel like we are a defense on the rise, every week we continue to get better and better…We got some stuff to clean up but I think the ceiling is extremely high."

GREEN BAY, Wis. (AP) — On a night when the Dallas Cowboys' beleaguered defense finally showed signs of life, their star-studded offense let them down.
Dak Prescott threw two interceptions in the Cowboys' 23-13 loss to the Green Bay Packers on Sunday night. The Cowboys were scoreless in a first half for the first time since Nov. 7, 2021, when they trailed 16-0 at the half of a 30-16 loss to the Denver Broncos.
The Cowboys trailed 7-0 and faced second-and-8 from Green Bay's 17 when Prescott took a big hit from Zaire Franklin. On the next play, Evan Williams intercepted Prescott's pass that was intended for CeeDee Lamb.
Dallas trailed 10-0 on its next possession and had first-and-15 from Green Bay's 28 when Lamb fell on a route, enabling Packers rookie Brandon Cisse to make his first career interception.
Prescott went 34 of 54 for 258 yards. His only touchdown pass – a 6-yarder to Ryan Flournoy – came in the final minute of the game.

Sydney Sweeney's blonde bombshell aesthetic just might be hereditary.
The "Euphoria" actress and the late Marilyn Monroe are distant relatives, according to a new MyHeritage study shared with USA TODAY.
The genealogy research site notes the actresses are ninth cousins, once removed, meaning that there is a one-generation gap between them.
The Hollywood darlings share the common ancestors Ezra Perry and Elizabeth Burgess, 17th-century British settlers in Massachusetts, through Sweeney's father, Steven Sweeney, and Monroe's biological father, Charles Stanley Gifford, according to the online genealogy company.
The Perry-Burgess lineage also includes former President Franklin D. Roosevelt and Gen. Douglas MacArthur.

Country star Jelly Roll has put his $7 million home in Franklin, Tennessee, up for sale less than three months after finalizing his divorce from podcaster Bunnie XO.
The 41-year-old, whose real name is Jason DeFord, filed for divorce from his wife in May, and the couple reached an agreement about splitting their ****** ets in July.

They are now selling their custom-built home, which sits on 10 acres of land and features five bedrooms and seven bathrooms.
The stunning abode also boasts a chef's kitchen, a media room, a large pool, an outdoor kitchen and an automotive showroom. Jelly Roll and Bunnie moved into the home in late 2023, mere months after renewing their vows in Las Vegas.

Jelly Roll and Bunnie XO are putting one of their Nashville-area homes up for sale after finalizing their divorce. The Franklin, Tennessee, estate now carries a price of just under $7 million. The former couple listed the property after reaching a settlement over their ******* ets.
Real estate sources told TMZ that the couple listed the home on Wednesday. The estate was custom-built and features over 10 acres and over 7,000 square feet of living area. The property has five bedrooms and seven bathrooms. It also offers views of the Tennessee countryside.
The home includes a chef's kitchen and a media den that looks over a glass-walled automotive showroom. On the outside, the estate has a covered porch and an outdoor kitchen. It also has outdoor dining and living ******* es. The outdoor ******* e is completed by a resort-style pool.
The listing is held by Erik Levin of Benchmark Realty and Greg Sanford of Greg Sanford Real Estate. The sale comes after Jelly Roll and Bunnie finalized their divorce in July. Court documents obtained by TMZ show that the former couple reached a settlement covering their aircraft, cars, homes, and intellectual property. Jelly Roll also agreed to give Bunnie a one-time lump-sum payment.
It was previously reported that movers appeared at the property in June. Exclusive photos showed a large moving truck outside while workers appeared to remove items from the home. Jelly Roll filed for divorce in May, and sources with direct knowledge said the split came from a mutual decision handled privately. Jelly Roll and Bunnie married in August 2016 after meeting the year before.

Wall Street spent years debating whether crypto deserved a place inside the financial system.
Franklin Templeton increasingly thinks that debate has it backwards. The more important question may be how much of the existing financial system eventually starts behaving like crypto.
For Chris Perkins, head of Franklin Crypto, the shift is already underway.
"Every institution is integrating blockchain technology in one way, shape or form," Perkins told Coinage. "Market structure is changing overnight. We will be in an era of 24-seven markets. If you're not 24-seven capable, you'll be left behind and someone else is going to eat your lunch."
That is a notably aggressive prediction coming from Franklin Templeton, one of the world's largest traditional ***** et managers. But Franklin has increasingly been putting money behind that conviction, too.

The Denver Broncos drive was derailed by a really bad holding call on Pat Bryant. The hold was just the Kansas City Chiefs player falling down, but that's how it goes in today's NFL. They would punt it back to the Chiefs after gaining most of the yards back.
Denver's defense would come up big on the Chiefs' next drive with Malcolm Roach tipping a third down pass near midfield to force another punt.
Starting from their own 12 yard line, Bo Nix and the Broncos offense opened things up with a checkdown to Adam Trautman for a six yard gain and a quick toss outside to Pat Bryant was an easy first down but he took his eye off the ball just long enough to drop it. On third down and four, Nix hit Jaylen Waddle finally but was immediately hit and tackled a yard short of the first down marker.
After a short two yard run for the Chiefs, Que Robinson exploded off the edge and nearly sacked Patrick Mahomes who threw the ball into the dirt to avoid the sack. On third and eight, Mahomes was pressured again and somehow picked his way through the line and gained just enough for the first down. That would be all they would get and would be punting a few plays later.
A nice punt return by Marvin Mims Jr. finally got the Broncos starting position outside of the 20 yard line for a change. An end around by Troy Franklin picked up five, then an outstanding spin move by RJ Harvey picked up four yards. On third and one, Nix from an empty backfield was immediately pressured and had to scramble to throw it away for yet another punt.

The Denver Broncos are releasing a veteran wide receiver just ahead of their season opener.
The Broncos cut receiver Lil'Jordan Humphrey on Monday, according to the NFL's transaction wire. Multiple reporters have dubbed it a "procedural move" as Denver is expected to re-sign LJH as early as Tuesday.
With Humphrey not on the team's Week 1 roster, his salary won't be guaranteed this season. That could have been part of the decision. The team might also consider bringing LJH back on the practice squad, opening up a spot on the active roster.
Following the Humphrey cut, Denver's remaining receivers on the active roster are Courtland Sutton, Jaylen Waddle, Pat Bryant, Marvin Mims and Troy Franklin.

I've used the word "penultimate" seemingly endless times in the last month or so, so here's one more. The WooSox capped off their finale in Lehigh Valley (Phillies AAA), finishing the PENULTIMATE series of 2026 in dramatic fashion despite outplaying the IronPigs for most of the game. Gage Ziehl had a gritty if not spectacular performance, pitching into the sixth and coming back from being taken yard in the fourth without his confidence shaken. All told, the 23-year-old righty struck out eight to bring his total to 126 in 116 innings pitched (96/85, respectively, of those being in Portland) and is really shaping up into someone to watch in 2027. The pitching staff as a whole issued zero walks despite being taken for nine hits, but the game never looked out of control save for when Noah Song came in to let two runs up in the sixth.
Luckily, though, the WooSox offense had a home run derby, sending five over the fence, including two from Allan Castro. That second one hoisted the WooSox from a deficit to a lead that Sam McWilliams wouldn't give up. Arias also hit his 24th home run of the season (and his 5th in Triple-A.)
Rain cancelled the last game of the season against Binghamton (Mets AA) in an anticlimactic fashion. But what a season it was for the Sea Dogs.
The season began with interested eyes watching Franklin Arias become an absolute hitting machine in the spring, along with Anthony Eyannson dealing, only for the former to be promoted to Triple-A and the latter dealt to Baltimore (or rather, Chesapeake) in the Adley Rutschman deal. Still, Brooks Brannon raked, the team had 8 walk-off wins and generally found ways to come up on top. The pitching staff headed by Hayden Mullins, in his own right a guy to watch, pitched a combined no hitter in April (but not a shutout). And Justin Gonzales looks formidable as an everyday outfielder a few years in the future. Overall, the cupboard is not as fully stocked as some teams, but there's some players to feel good about starting to make their mark in the mid-levels of the farm.

Through three weeks of the 2026 high school football season, junior running back Mykheal Smith continuously showed that he was a worthy addition to Burke County after transferring from Richmond Academy in the offseason. He averaged over 100 total yards a night and scored two touchdowns during that span, while also being tasked with playing in the secondary for the Bears at safety.
Heading into a Week 4 matchup versus a Jones County squad that had allowed at least 40 points during the previous three weeks, it seemed like Smith and the Bears were in prime position to put up big numbers en route to a win.
That couldn't be further from what happened. The Greyhounds dominated the Bears in a 35-0 rout on Friday, Sept. 11. On offense they got whatever they wanted, particularly when it came to their rushing attack. Defensively, they forced four fumbles that were recovered and led to scores. The turnovers in particular will be a point of emphasis going forward for Burke County.
"It's one of those things where we just didn't get it done in terms of taking care of the football," Bears head coach Franklin Stephens said. "It's one of those things we've been stressing, especially after two weeks ago when we had a bunch of turnovers and fumbles."
Even beyond the turnover problems, Burke County didn't have much going when they did have the football. Outside of a near 30-yard punt return for Smith, he was relatively quiet on the night ― as was the rest of the offense.

Forrest Dolan and Adam Cook posted 100-yard games on the ground as Franklin Pierce's Power-T offense ran over Peninsula, 42-14, across the Narrows on Thursday night.
The Cardinals piled 448 total rushing yards, fueled by Dolan (22 CAR, 187 YDS, TD) and Cook (18 CAR, 123 YDS, TD). Quarterback Jeremiah Orcutt added 58 yards and two rushing touchdowns on three carries.
"I was proud of the way our guys responded tonight," Franklin Pierce head coach Trevor Hanson said. "We played physical, ran the football extremely well with 400+ yards on the ground, and defensively created takeaways and ran to the football. That's the kind of complementary FP football we want to play.

The Green Bay Packers have become the NFC's Baltimore Ravens under head coach Matt LaFleur. They've found a way to stack winning regular seasons around an electric quarterback. Then, they crumble into powder in the postseason.
LaFleur is 76-40-1 in Weeks 1-18 and 3-6 in win-or-go-home playoff games. Jordan Love has advanced beyond the Wild Card round only once. His most recent postseason start saw a 21-3 halftime lead become a 31-27 Chicago Bears victory.
That leaves plenty to prove in 2026 and a roster loaded with holes. Wideouts Romeo Doubs and Dontayvion Wicks have departed. Josh Jacobs is on the exempt list as the league sorts out the domestic violence charges against him. Micah Parsons will miss at least the first four weeks of the season as he recovers from a torn ACL.
This year's Packers look like a diminished version of the one that stalked the NFC North in years past. What comes next?
Several new additions will have larger roles for the Packers, including linebacker Zaire Franklin and second round rookie cornerback Brandon Cisse. None may be able to provide more peace of mind than Smack if he can live up to his draft status.

Red Sox Seem to Make Franklin Arias Decision After Latest Report originally appeared on NESN. Add NESN as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
Right after Major League Baseball's trade deadline, there was a sense that the Boston Red Sox could have called up Franklin Arias. The idea of bringing up Arias would be simple: the Red Sox believed he could come in and make an impact, and if he did, they'd be a better team come playoff time.
Instead of that being the case, the Red Sox returned Trevor Story, allowing the veteran to come back and prove why he's one of the better shortstops in Major League Baseball.
Story hasn't been perfect since returning, but he's a guy who should be trusted.
As for Arias, it remains unclear what the Red Sox will do until something happens. However, according to the latest report, it doesn't look like Boston is going in that direction.

FRANKLIN LAKES − Ridgewood made the first big play. Ramapo made the rest.
The home Raiders scored 20 straight points after giving up a 95-yard touchdown run and a pair of interceptions. That enabled the No. 4 team in the North Jersey Public Super 20 to topple No. 12 Ridgewood, 43-24, at Drew Gibbs Field on Sept. 10.
Ramapo's top three backs combined to rush for 250 yards, and quarterback Luke Magerko threw a 70-yard TD pass to Cole Seyffer for the Raiders' longest play of the night.
The special teams chipped in with a Brandon Barry blocked punt that Tyler Sorafine recovered in the end zone. Marcello Tirri gave the defense a lift with an interception on the second play of the second half, which led to the second of three Joey Gorga touchdown runs.

The first full week of the 2026 college football season just concluded, and over the course of several days, the ACC made its presence felt on the national stage.
No. 7 Miami, the reigning national runner-up and the conference's preseason favorite, demolished Stanford 45-6, behind five touchdown passes from Darian Mensah and three touchdown receptions from Malachi Toney. No. 20 SMU overcame a late start — literally — to outlast Florida State, 27-24.
Louisville lost to No. 10 Mississippi, 41-38, on a 48-yard field goal as time expired, but watched as first-year starting quarterback Lincoln Kienholz racked up 376 total yards and three touchdowns.

Virginia Tech is off to a sensational start in the James Franklin era after cruising to a 73-3 victory over VMI. The new Virginia Tech head coach watched his team deliver a dominant performance in its season opener and praised several aspects afterward.
However, one moment during the blowout victory genuinely irritated Franklin. Officials penalized the Hokies for a celebration, and their head coach did not hesitate to express his frustration with the call, leading to plenty of reactions from college football fans.
College football has specific rules governing excessive celebrations, and Virginia Tech found itself on the wrong side of one of them in its opening game.
Officials flagged Virginia Tech running back Marcellous Hawkins Jr. for unsportsmanlike conduct after he scored his third touchdown and immediately made his way toward a large group of cadets.
Hawkins proceeded to high-five several of them, but an official in the end zone determined that the celebration warranted a penalty.

Matt Campbell was far from the being the only coach to have a solid showing in his debut with his new school. His predecessor at Penn State ended up having a pretty big day as well.
James Franklin won his head coaching debut with Virginia Tech on Saturday behind an offensive explosion against VMI. Virginia Tech's 73-3 victory was fueled in part by a handful of notable performances by some former Penn State players who chose to follow Franklin from Happy Valley to Blacksburg.
Ethan Grunkemeyer, now Virginia Tech's starting quarterback, passed for 224 yards and 2 touchdowns before giving way to his backup in the second half. Tight end Luke Reynolds was Virginia Tech's second-leading receiver with 5 catches for 50 yards and a touchdown. Defensive lineman Mylachi Williams recorded the first sack of his career in the first quarter. Messiah Mickens, a freshman running back who was set to join Penn State but ultimately stayed loyal to Franklin, had 5 carries for 23 yards in his college debut.
The Hokies out-gained VMI 619 to 83, and the defense held the Keydets to negative rushing yardage in the game (-4 yards). But it wasn't all rosy for Franklin's squad. Virginia Tech was flagged 11 times for penalties for a total of 93 penalty yards. Virginia Tech also lost the turnover battle, 2-1.
Virginia Tech's next game will be next Saturday against Old Dominion, coached by former Penn State offensive coordinator (under Franklin) Ricky Rahne. The Hokies are orchestrating a "white effect" for Lane Stadium for the game.

BLACKSBURG, Va. (AP) — Marcellous Hawkins Jr. rushed for three touchdowns, and Jeffrey Overton Jr. rushed for 108 yards and two scores to lead Virginia Tech to a 73-3 victory over VMI on Saturday in the debut of Hokies' head coach James Franklin.
Franklin, who was fired last October by Penn State after 12 seasons and hired by Virginia Tech 36 days later, witnessed a dominating performance by the Hokies (1-0) in their opener. Virginia Tech's offense scored on its first six possessions and punted just once during the game. The Hokies' defense held VMI (0-2) to just 83 yards, and the special teams blocked two punts, recovering one for a touchdown.
Hired to rebuild a once-proud Virginia Tech program that has suffered losing seasons in five of the past six years, Franklin brought in 27 transfers, including 12 who followed him from his previous stop. Arguably the most important of those, quarterback Ethan Grunkemeyer, enjoyed a great Virginia Tech debut.
Grunkemeyer, who started the final seven games for Penn State last season, completed 10 of his first 11 passes. He finished 17 of 20 for 224 yards and two touchdowns.
Led by Overton, who scored on runs of 50 and 23 yards, and Grunkemeyer, the Hokies finished with 619 total yards.

Destiny's Child was one of the biggest girl groups in the world, but high-profile line-up changes and lawsuits plagued their early success.
Two of the founding members, LeToya Luckett and LaTavia Roberson, filed a lawsuit against manager Mathew Knowles, Beyoncé's dad, for breach of contract, defamation, libel, and fraud, according to Rolling Stone, after claiming he favored Beyoncé and distributed the group's earnings somewhat creatively.
LeToya and LaTavia were then replaced by Michelle Williams and Farrah Franklin, who left the group after six months, and Destiny's Child became a trio.
LeToya and LaTavia were part of the original Destiny's Child lineup (@ Getty Images)
The lawsuit was settled out of court in 2002, and LeToya claimed in 2023 that all was forgiven. "Things happened the way they were supposed to happen," she said. "Baby, everybody's fine. We've done our therapy."

ETF professionals argue an overly wide definition could slow product launches and undermine one of the market's biggest advantages, even as increasingly complex funds test the boundaries of the traditional ETF structure, per a Reuters report.
The SEC opened the review in June after delaying a wave of proposed prediction-market ETFs. Its request covers ETFs that invest in innovative ***** et classes or use unconventional strategies and asks whether existing rules adequately address investor protection, market integrity, and the registration process.

No doubt you've seen an "FDIC-insured" or "Member FDIC" sign on the wall of a bank or at the bottom of a bank website homepage. Almost all banks, including online banks, are insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).
The FDIC is an independent government agency that insures money people deposit at a bank. If the bank fails, the FDIC repays up to $250,000 per person, per ownership category at each FDIC-insured bank.
The FDIC was created in 1933 in response to the turmoil of the 1929 stock market crash. Following the crash, people rushed to withdraw their money from banks. As a result of these bank runs, as many as 9,000 banks failed and $7 billion dollars in deposits were lost, wiping out the life savings of millions of Americans.
President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed the Banking Act of 1933, establishing the FDIC to restore trust in the US banking system. The FDIC reports that since then, no one has lost any FDIC-insured money due to a bank failure.

LEXINGTON, Va. (WFXR) – Facing Virginia Tech for the first time since 1984, the VMI football team will renew the all-time series with the Hokies after a 42-year hiatus.
VMI looks to bounce back from last week's 38-10 loss to Idaho State in Pocatello, Idaho. The Keydets trailed just 10-0 at halftime, but the Bengals pulled away in the third quarter with four touchdowns en route to the win.
Virginia Tech is eager to start the season under First-year Head Coach and former Penn State Head Coach James Franklin, who takes over a team that finished 15th in the ACC last season with a 3-9 record overall and 2-6 mark in conference.
Although the landscape of college football has changed dramatically since 1984 – the last time the two schools played each other – the Keydets do own 25 all-time wins in the series dating back to 1894.
The Hokies have won the last three matchups which were played in 1982, 1983 and 1984. The last time the Keydets took down the Hokies was November 21, 1981, a 6-0 win in Blacksburg.
The Keydets (0-1) and Hokies (0-0) will kick off at 7:30 p.m. at Lane Stadium.
