RUSSELL WILSON AND THE DENVER BRONCOS The "old" Ru sell Wilson -- the something-out-of-nothing whirling dervish that the Broncos hoped they were getting when they acquired him -- will never fully return. But when that Wilson reappears here or there, he's still special. Ru s threw a pair of touchdown pa ses and led a game-winning drive to set up Wil Lutz's 36-yard field goal as time expired, leading the Broncos to an over the Bills. Wilson's first touchdown was a grab by Courtland Sutton, who somehow tapped both feet in. Wilson's second was also excellent as he somehow got the ball to Javonte Williamsthrough contact.Wilson made several big plays on the game-winning drive, none bigger than one that won't show up in his stats. One play after being sacked on an all-out blitz -- knocking the Broncos out of field-goal range -- Wilson faced another blitz and lofted one to Jerry Jeudy, who drew pa s interference on Taron Johnson. Taylor Moton Jersey The drama wasn't over: Lutz mi sed a 41-yard mayday field goal as time expired, but the Bills had 12 men on the field amid the chaos. Lutz connected from 36 on the retry, the .Wilson completed 82.8% of his pa ses (24 for 29) -- the fourth-highest mark in franchise history -- ran for 30 yards and didn't have a turnover.Good for Wilson. Good for the Broncos. They've blown so many leads and had so many heartbreakers since Wilson arrived, even if this doesn't change the long-term outlook for the franchise and its quarterback -- who knows if it's a springboard or outlier? -- it certainly feels good.

And quite frankly, the Bills are a mistake-riddled, injury weakened team. At 5-5, Buffalo is on the outside looking in on the playoff picture more Pat Elflein Jersey than halfway through a season it entered with Super Bowl aspirations. The Bills had four turnovers: aJames Cook fumble, twoJosh Allen interceptions -- one that went through Gave Davis' hands, another that was completely Allen's fault -- and a botched handoff between Allen and Cook. And yet ... the Bills still had a chance. Allen ran in a touchdown to give Buffalo an improbable lead. But then the defense -- defanged without All-ProsTre'Davious White and Matt Milano, plus down other key contributors -- couldn't hold on. Then there was the ridiculous 12-man penalty to seal the Bills' fate. Mistakes, mistakes, mistakes. Here's the thing, though: The Bills have been able to overcome mistakes before. Allen leads the NFL in turnovers by a wide margin since 2019, but only the Chiefs have a better record since then. Allen's Superman capabilities have bailed them out and nearly did again Monday. The difference this year? The defense isn't as good. The offense isn't as explosive. In turn, the mistakes become mountains, not just speed bumps. And you get the 2023 Buffalo Bills, a .500 team unable to get out of its own way and quickly tumbling toward a lost season.

Michigan didn't have a top-tier win. This weekend, it got one.Ohio State didn't have a 60-minute dominant performance in a while. This weekend, it got one.Georgia? Well Georgia just wins and wins and wins: 27 in a row. But which is No. 1 in Dennis Dodd's latest ? Dodd: The Bulldogs' spot on top remains secure, but there's movement behind them. Here's the top eight: Georgia (previous: 1)Michigan (3)Ohio State (2)Florida State (4)Washington (5)Oregon (6)Texas (7)Alabama (8)So, the Wolverines and Buckeyes switching spots is the only change there. But Michigan , our expert-wide ranking of every FBS team. Georgia (2)Michigan (1)Ohio State (3)Florida State (4)Washington (5)Oregon (6)Texas (7)Alabama (8) There's a similar top eight, and it's fair to say these are the eight teams still in contention for the four College Football Playoff berths that will be decided in three weeks' time. There's plenty of madne s to come. Four of the eight teams above -- Ohio State at Michigan and -- are guaranteed to meet before season's end, and a Washington-Oregon rematch in the Pac-12 Championship Game could be locked in as soon as this weekend. It may be mid-November already, but we're just getting started. The Orioles and the Diamondbacks were arguably the feel-good teams in baseball this year. Now, their brightest young stars are getting individual awards for their contributions to that. Gunnar Hendersonand Corbin Carroll. It's the first time since 2017 and just the fifth time ever, both awards were unanimous, and the names preceding these two are quite impre sive. 1987: Mark McGwire (AL), Benito Santiago (NL)1993: Tim Salmon (AL), Mike Piazza (NL)1997: Nomar Garciaparra (AL), Scott Rolen (NL)2017: Aaron Judge (AL), Cody Bellinger (NL)Henderson is Baltimore's first Rookie of the Year since Gregg Olson in 1989, snapping the longest Rookie of the Year-le s streak in the AL. The 2019 second-round pick led all rookies in home runs and extra-base hits, finishing fifth among AL players in WAR. He also won the . As Mike Axisa notes, Henderson will likely receive some MVP votes, too, a testament to his excellence as a whole, not just among rookies. The Guardians' Tanner Bibee was a distant runner-up. Over in the NL, Carroll is the first Diamondback player to win the award after becoming the . A first-round pick in 2019, Carroll was a menace on the base paths, hit all over the top of the lineup and played all over the outfield. He was a ma sive part of Arizona's stunning run from last team into the NL playoff field to winning the pennant. The Mets' Kodai Senga was second. Manager of the Year will be announced tonight. Zion Williamson in 2018. Tyrese Maxey in 2019. Ochai Agbaji and Paolo Banchero in 2021. Jalen Wilsonin 2022. The Champions Cla sic has treated us to plenty of breakout performances, and tonight we could be in for more. No. 9 Duke takes on No. 18 Michigan State () before No. 1 Kansas faces No. 19 Kentucky() in an intriguing doubleheader at the United Center in Chicago. This one is a little different than past iterations, though: Duke (to Arizona) and Michigan State (to James Madison) already have lo ses this year, and we're certainly not used to seeing either team have two November lo ses; that will be the case for one, though. Kansas is the nation's top-ranked team, while Kentucky has relatively low expectations compared to most years. What doesn't change, though, is that these teams are loaded with future NBA picks.This event features from Kyle Boone's . 1. Justin Edwards, Kentucky7. Tyrese Proctor, Duke11.
