In college football, Indiana is making believers out of everyone. The fifth-ranked Hoosiers dug themselves out of an eleven-point hole in the fourth quarter to edge Nebraska twenty to seventeen, extending their remarkable winning streak to twenty-two straight games. Josh Hoover to Nick Marsh was the connection that kept the dream alive, and this team just refuses to quit.
Shifting to the Red River Rivalry, Texas and Oklahoma are going at it in one of college football's most unpredictable matchups. Over the past thirteen meetings, the lower-ranked team has pulled the upset six times, and Oklahoma's John Mateer — who was a Heisman front-runner before a thumb injury derailed his early season — is looking to remind everyone exactly what he's capable of on the biggest stage.
And across the pond at Old Trafford, Manchester United manager Michael Carrick is feeling the heat after a one-one draw with Tottenham left the home crowd booing. Carrick called it painful and not nice, and with United's dreadful start to the season showing no signs of turning around, the pressure is building fast on the new man in charge.
That's your play-by-play. Sports Desk, back to the booth.
