Excerpt:

Players and coaches already had to adapt once to the shocking news after their bye week that Pagano was taking an indefinite leave from the team. He began chemotherapy treatments to battle leukemia and offensive coordinator Bruce Arians took over as interim coach. Indy rallied to win its next game against Green Bay, and has gone 8-3 since Pagano has been out. But now, needing one more win to clinch a playoff spot, things are about to change again. And those around the organization can't wait.

MANHATTAN, Kan. –  There will be a time not long from now that Kansas State's players will gather to reflect on the season, one that's brought unimaginable joy along with soul-crushing heartache. It's not that time just yet. Despite a loss two weeks ago to Baylor that knocked the seventh-ranked Wildcats from national title consideration, they still have plenty to play for Saturday against No. 23 Texas: The third conference championship in school history and an automatic BCS bowl berth. Not a bad consolation prize for a team expected to finish somewhere in the middle of the Big 12, but that rose to No. 1 in the BCS standings before that lousy night in Waco. "I haven't reflected back on the season. I haven't reflected forward," Kansas State coach Bill Snyder said this week. "I have reflected on our most recent game and our preparation for the game coming up.

Jaguars coach Mike Mularkey 'very disappointed' after latest home loss, 1-7 start

Excerpt:

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. –  With their team getting blown out again at home, Jacksonville Jaguars fans started cheering for the referee Sunday against Detroit. Yep, the ref. Every time Gene Steratore announced that Lions offensive tackle Riley Reiff had reported as an eligible receiver, fans roared with enthusiasm. Sure, they were mocking Steratore's repetitive and seemingly endless updates, but it's hard to blame fans for glomming a laugh while watching Jacksonville struggle this season. The Jaguars (1-7) are 0-4 at EverBank Field and have been outscored 126-34 by Houston, Cincinnati, Chicago and Detroit. The latest debacle was a 31-14 loss in which Jacksonville trailed 14-0 before getting a first down and was behind 24-0 midway through the fourth quarter.
