For the second straight time in two weeks, the Packers have won a game on a last-second field

goal by Brandon McManus, the three-pointer was set up by a 51-yard pass from Reserve

Quarterback Malik Willis to Jaden Reed.

The 30-27 win over Jacksonville was Green Bay's fourth in a row.

The Jaguars had wiped out a 10-point margin in the fourth period before that drive.

Running back, Josh Jacobs did the heavy lifting with 127 rushing yards and two touchdowns.

Green Bay will host an MC North rival Detroit on Sunday.

In Jordan Love's status is up in the air, heading into the Green Bay Packers game Sunday

with the NFC North Leading Lions.

Love left the Packers victory yesterday at Jacksonville, and the third quarter was a groin

issue.

A person familiar with the situation said the quarterback had a groin strain.

The Packers have reason to feel good that about backup quarterback Malik Willis, if love

is unable to play, Willis won two starts in place of an injured love earlier this season.

And through a 51-yard completion to set up the wingfield gold against Jacksonville yesterday.

The stumbling start of the season for the Bucks continues with a 115-102 loss at Brooklyn

yesterday.

Milwaukee dropped two or three games to start the regular season with a game at Boston

set for the evening.

Yannis-Anton DeCoupo had another double-double with 22 points and a dozen rebounds.

Damian Lillard scored 21.

The Bucks were playing again without veteran Chris Middleton.

Wisconsin Basketball coach Greg Gard is listed as one of the three big 10 program leaders

on the hot seat this season.

Sports Illustrated named Gard, Indiana's Mike Woodson, and Minnesota's Ben Johnson as

coaches whose jobs may be on the line.

ESPN's Jeff Borzello says it would take a disastrous campaign for the Badgers coach to

lose his job.

Gard has guided the team to the NCAA tournament six times in eight seasons, but Wisconsin hasn't

made it to the second round since 2017.

Wisconsin tips off the season when stay at home against UW River Falls.

Penn State coach James Franklin is unsure of starting quarterback Drew LR will be ready

to play when number three, Nithany Lyons, host number four Ohio State.

LR suffered an apparent left knee injury late in the first half of Penn State's 28-13

win over Wisconsin.

LR returned for the second half, wearing a knee brace, but after a short and ineffective

warmup yielded the offense to Bo Pribla.

LR has completed 117 of 164 passes for 1640 yards with 12 touchdowns and four interceptions

this season.

He hasn't missed a game yet since taking over the starting job at the start of the 2023

season.

Showy Otani will be in his regular lead off spot as the Los Angeles Dodgers designated

hitter for game three of the World Series two days after the star slugger partially dislocated

his left shoulder.

Otani got hurt sliding into second base when he was caught stealing 10, the seventh inning

of Saturday night's four to two victory over the Yankees in game two at Los Angeles.

Taking their eighth title and second in five years, the Dodgers lead two and all two

games to none in the best of seven series.

Walker Bueller starts game three for the Los Angeles Dodgers against Clark Schmidt.

Game three of the series will be played at Yankee Stadium in New York this evening.

First pitch will be at 708.

And stuff in Curie will miss at least the next two games for the Golden State Warriors,

nursing and injured ankle that he hurt in a loss to the Los Angeles clippers.

Curie had an MRI exam after the game and it showed no structural damage and revealed

a left perennial strain.

The team said he would be re-evaluated on Friday, Golden State plays consecutive home

games Tuesday and Wednesday against the New Orleans Pec pelicans.

Their next game after Curie is examined again is Saturday at Houston.
