The Philadelphia 76ers will pose the biggest threat to the Hornets out of any of these sides, after winning eight of their last 10 to solidify their place atop the conference standings. Joel Embiid is expected to return to the 76ers starting lineup as he continues his pursuit to be named MVP. In their last matchup against the Indiana Pacers, the Philadelphia 76ers coped well without their star center with the help of 54 points off the bench....

Iowa had people fitting them for their coffin after the first two weeks of the season, in which they combined for 14 points....

The ninth-ranked Hoosiers will have that question answered Saturday when they travel to take on No. 3 Ohio State in Buckeye Stadium. Ryan Day’s squad once again looks like the class of the conference, beating opponents by an average of 16.7 points per game.

Week 9 of the NFL season kicks off Thursday when the Packers and their near-empty RB room face off with a 49ers team that’s lacking Jimmy Garoppolo, George Kittle and Raheem Mostert. It’s anyone’s guess as to whether Nick Mullens or a struggling Green Bay defense holds the advantage on that side of the ball, while the continued absence of pass-rusher Nick Bosa likely means Aaron Rodgers will perform up to his usual standard while on offense....
