00:00Welcome to Newswire. I'm Mike Blewett in for Craig Mish today.

00:07Excited to have you here on Sports Grid catching up with

00:09all the news as the show states. So, a lot of action

00:13obviously per usual and we recap last night's Monday night

00:18football matchup in the Har Bowl. Jim Harbaugh taking on

00:21John Harbaugh and the big brother John gets the victory

00:25going on the road and defeating Jim's Chargers. Really

00:28competitive game throughout but Lamar Jackson and the

00:33Ravens get it done. A lot of big explosive plays. Justice

00:37Hill, Derrick Henry, Lamar being Lamar and throwing a

00:42couple of key touchdown passes to Bateman and to Mark

00:45Andrews with a really spectacular catch in the end

00:49zone. Here's the comments from John Harbaugh on getting

00:53the victory on the road in LA. You kind of live these

00:56things close to your heart and these are just

01:02huge battles. Huge battles every week in this league and

01:05going against a team that's this well coached by all their

01:08coaches and by my brother Jim, best coach in the National

01:11Football League when he's done with that team and how hard

01:13they play and what they did. Hats off to them because

01:16they're going to win a lot more football games this year

01:18and they're going to be a major factor in the playoffs.

01:21So, this is a big win for our guys. I'm proud of our

01:24guys. I'm proud of the way they came out and and and

01:28responded, you know, after the first 10 points, we're

01:32down 10 to nothing and our guys step up. I think they

01:36had they had two field goals until the last drive on

01:38defense and our offense had five or six scoring drives

01:41right in a row there to make a difference. So, that's

01:44what I appreciate about our guys. They really don't

01:46flinch. They keep fighting. They got locked in on some

01:48details and they played really winning good winning

01:51football. So, proud of them for that. Now, we have a

01:53quick turnaround. We gotta get back about 630 in the

01:56morning and and get to work on a very good Eagles team.

02:00So, the Ravens pulled to eight victories. Just a half

02:04game behind the Steelers in the AFC North by way of them

02:07not having yet had their bye. Big matchups this week as

02:10the Steelers take on the Bengals and the Ravens will

02:14face the Philadelphia Eagles before their bye. So, John

02:18used to coach in Philadelphia. So, it'll be a homecoming

02:21of sorts for him playing the Eagles there in Baltimore

02:25but AFC North still yet to be decided. Those teams with

02:28eight wins. Steelers have the victory over the Ravens but

02:31they will play again later on this season. They firmly in

02:35the playoff mix. Are the Chargers still in the playoff

02:37mix? Clearly so even though they fall three games behind

02:40the Chiefs with this loss. Here's Jim Harbaugh commenting

02:43on the loss last week. We'll just we'll regroup and they

02:49played better football than we did tonight but more

02:55importantly, we know what kind of team we are and what

03:00we're capable of and regroup. Coach, is there any news on

03:04JK? No, I don't have any update. I know it's a knee.

03:09What did your brother tell you after the game when you

03:11guys met up? I always say the same thing. I congratulated

03:15him on the victory and

03:19then love you. Do you feel like he was maybe a little bit

03:25extra aggressive tonight with going for that fourth and

03:27one and then a two-point conversion trying to make it

03:29a two-score game. Did you see any extra aggressiveness

03:32out of him tonight? I thought they did a great job in

03:37third down and fourth downs, you know, without a doubt.

03:41I mean three for three on fourth down. They did a great

03:45job on third down as well over 50, 55%. So a big victory

03:51there for the Ravens. They've run for 212 yards. Derrick

03:54Henry 140 on the ground, Justice Hill an explosive 51

03:58yard touchdowns, a Flowers 62 yards receiving Mark Andrews

04:02and Peyton with those touchdowns. As I mentioned, JK

04:04Dobbins had to leave the game at some point. I think we'll

04:07be all be tracking his injury news for those of you playing

04:10in fantasy leagues and wondering what the Chargers

04:12Outlook looks like for the rest of the year. Dobbins had

04:15six carries for 40 yards. Lad McConkey six for 83.

04:21It's clear in watching the Chargers. They need a little

04:23bit more help from pass catchers. I'm sure that will

04:27be addressed long-term for Justin Herbert, but still a

04:30team very much in the playoff mix. We'll talk about the

04:33NFL in more detail with Jacob Kameker in about 25 minutes.

04:38So other NFL news, DeMarcus Robinson, little Rams receiver

04:43had caught a touchdown pass in Sunday Night Football. He

04:46was arrested for traveling more than 100 miles an hour

04:50on the US 101 northbound and suspected of being under the

04:55influence as well. So trouble ahead for DeMarcus Robinson.

04:59We'll see how the Rams and the NFL handle that. Secondarily

05:03Jamison Williams will not face charges after a

05:06review. He had an October 8th traffic stop in Wayne County

05:10in Michigan and all the Chargers, Chargers that were

05:15stemming from that traffic stop will be dropped as they

05:20have found no evidence of him violating any statutes or

05:23warrants. Patriots Jbreil Peppers, who has been on the

05:26commissioner's exempt list for some period of time for

05:30very serious charges, including strangulation and drug

05:34possession, was removed from that commissioner exempt

05:36list and it is up to the Patriots to decide what they

05:39want to do next with him. Does he become part of the

05:41active roster? It will not be impacted by league

05:45sanctioning from here forward. And a quote here, we

05:49understand the league's investigation into the matter

05:52will continue as will the legal process. We will await

05:54the outcome of both before making any further comment.

05:58So it sounds like the Patriots are going to take a

06:00wait-and-see approach. The jury trial is scheduled for

06:03January 22nd at a pretrial hearing in Quincy,

06:07Massachusetts. Moving on off the at a gridiron and on to

06:12the basketball court, huge games yesterday. There are

06:15over 60 college basketball games today. So there is a

06:18lot for you to watch and learn about teams early on in

06:22the season and plenty obviously to wager on. Auburn comes

06:26back in the second half to beat number four Auburn, has

06:30a huge second half comeback to beat number five Iowa

06:32State and hits a shot with a second left to grab the

06:35victory, 83 to 81. Memphis pulls off an upset of number

06:39two, UConn. They win 99-97 in overtime. They were winning

06:44this game by 10 points with three minutes left, blow the

06:46entire lead, then come back and get the victory in overtime.

06:50A massive win for Penny Hardaway and the Memphis Tigers.

06:53Dayton had an 18-point halftime lead over North Carolina

06:58and Carolina comes all the way back to win 92-90. Their

07:01second consecutive game in which they've come back from

07:0518 or more down. We'll have more on that from Hubert

07:08Davis a little bit later and Feastweek rolls on. Like I

07:11said, 60 games today, plenty more action. We've got some

07:15interesting windows a little bit later this week. Arkansas

07:19and Illinois take on each other in Kansas City after that

07:23Bears-Lions game. So CBS racking up huge, hoping to rack up

07:28huge ratings with that college basketball contest. A lot

07:30of NBA action. The NBA Cup rolls on tonight, five games.

07:34The Knicks blew out the Nuggets last night, 145 to 118.

07:38Brooklyn gets a victory in Golden State, 128 to 120 as 11

07:42and a half point underdogs. The Raptors move to 4-14 as

07:47the Pistons drop them 102-100. A Jaden Ivey buzzer beater,

07:52the deciding shot there and the Celtics hammer the Clippers

07:56126 to 94. Moving on back to the gridiron in the college

08:01side. Obviously the rankings are going to come out tonight.

08:03We'll talk with Bill Bender in just about three minutes on

08:07those topics, but big news just came right before this show

08:11started and North Carolina has decided to move on from

08:14Mack Brown. They play NC State this week. That will be his

08:18final game as North Carolina head coach. His second stint

08:21in Chapel Hill. He had a quote earlier and his statement is

08:26while this was not the perfect time and way in which I

08:28imagined going out, no time will ever be the perfect time.

08:32I've spent 16 seasons at North Carolina, will always cherish

08:35the memories and relationships Sally and I have built while

08:38serving as head coach. So he's obviously sad to be moving

08:42on, but North Carolina unfortunately blown out by Boston

08:46College on Saturday. That drops them to six and five on

08:51the season and three and four in conference. When we come

08:54back, like I said, we'll have Bill Bender from the Sporting

08:57News. We'll go over his top 14 and see what he thinks the

09:01rankings will look like. We've got some action tonight where

09:05Toledo is an eight and a half point road favorite in Akron

09:08with a total of 48. The Buffalo Bulls are 22 and a half point

09:12home favorites against Kent State.
