College football mourns deaths of two players after game injuries

No. 4 Ohio State beat No. 5 Indiana 19-15, ending the Hoosiers’ 22-game winning streak; a missed Indiana field goal late in the first half was followed by a Buckeyes touchdown, a swing coach Curt Cignetti called a key turning point. Kansas State extended its winning streak over Kansas to 18 games with a 35-24 victory, overcoming an early deficit after a late interception helped set up the Wildcats’ go-ahead score. Michigan State fell to No. 25 Northwestern after a blocked potential go-ahead field goal and a late Wildcats kick, despite a stronger pass rush and standout defensive performances. Florida State coach Luke Loucks said a late-night staff review after a 44-point loss to NC State prompted more combative practices focused on defense and rebounding, helping lay groundwork for an in-season improvement. College football is mourning the deaths of Southern Nazarene safety Tyler Ulrich, who died days after a traumatic game injury, and William Jewell running back MicahJo Barnett; Barnett’s family asked for privacy, and the cause of his death was not established in the report.
