The Bears make their second trip east in ACC play, having won 28-24 at Boston College on Sept. 27. They are coming off a 21-18 home victory vs. North Carolina, but they are just 2-2 since a 3-0 start. ... A win would put Cal two games over .500 in conference play for the first time since opening 2-0 in the Pac-12 in 2015.

Bayern Munich will face off with perennial pain in the butt, Borussia Mönchengladbach, in a game that looks extremely lopsided on the surface. Gladbach is in the midst of a trainwreck of a season where nothing seems to be working and also where the club has already changed coaches. It has been nothing short of a debacle so far --

The Florida Gators are turning to Steve Spurrier to help fix the team's floundering offense. Steve Spurrier Jr., anyway. Interim coach Billy Gonzales said Wednesday the younger Spurrier, who was hired as an offensive analyst earlier this year, will be more involved with quarterback DJ Lagway when the Gators (3-4, 2-2 SEC) play No. 5 Georgia (6-1, 4-1) in Jacksonville on Nov. 1.

"We agree that -- unfortunately -- our on-field performance has not lived up to the standard of winning we have for the program," athletic director Mark Ingram said in a statement announcing the decision. "I wish Coach Dilfer the best and thank him for his class, tireless work and commitment during his tenure at UAB. "While his efforts did not translate into a winning record, each young man who played for him will be a better person as a result."

Kay Cossington of Bay Collective, a multi-club global organization dedicated to holistic excellence and the growth of women's football, will lead the search for Bay FC's next coach alongside current Bay FC sporting director Matt Potter. A release from the team said Cossington will be leading the sporting efforts of the club going forward, including the selection of the club's next head coach.

"Why did we fire Mourinho? I'll say it for the first time, it was a painful dismissal," Koc told Fanatik. "Parting ways with someone who is above all a friend was tough. Being eliminated by Benfica wasn't a problem, but the way we were eliminated was unacceptable. This made me feel like last year's football would continue. We parted ways because we believed this squad would be playing better football at this point."

Derwin Henderson was not intending to coach this season. He hadn't been a head coach since 2019 at Hawthorne. But he lives in the Inland Empire, and Rialto High kept asking him to take the open position. He finally relented, and big changes are already taking place. Rialto is off to a 3-0 start with wins over Ontario, Temecula Prep and Indio. That's notable because the team was 0-10 last season and 1-9 in 2023.

The D-Backs are hiring Tim Bogar as third base coach, report Nick Piecoro and José M. Romero of The Arizona Republic. He'd already been in the organization's player development department but now returns to coaching. Arizona skipper Torey Lovullo announced on Wednesday that they were removing prior third base coach Shaun Larkin from that responsibility; Larkin will remain on staff in a different capacity.

Nothing major happened. Nothing big happened. I parted ways not long ago, but it's not affecting me. I feel ready to compete. I feel free.
