Hazel Krauss, a 19-year-old University of Florida freshman from Chicago, died after being struck while crossing West University Avenue in Gainesville late Saturday night. Police say an eastbound vehicle swerved to avoid another vehicle, striking Krauss and colliding with the other car; a nurse helped her before she was taken to UF Health Shands Hospital, where she died. The investigation is ongoing, and no arrest had been made of the driver involved in the fatal collision. A separate driver, Jack Bour, was arrested on a DUI charge after driving around a police vehicle at the investigation scene; police said that arrest was unrelated to the crash that killed Krauss.

CFP, ESPN Agree to 24-Team Playoff Expansion

The College Football Playoff says its expanded media-rights agreement with ESPN is in final review, paving the way for a proposed 24-team playoff starting in 2027, with four Power Four automatic bids, one Group of Six bid and 19 at-large spots. The expansion could bring ESPN an additional $345 million annually, but critics warn that more playoff games could further weaken regular-season viewership and the relevance of bowl games.

Miami fell to No. 7 in the College Football Playoff rankings after losing to Notre Dame, but remains in contention: winning the ACC title would guarantee a playoff berth, and the Hurricanes still have a path as an at-large team. Other polls also dropped Miami from the top spot, while the team’s remaining games offer a chance to strengthen its position.

Blacklisted Chinese University Bought Nvidia H200 Chips Despite US Curbs

Reports allege a network centered on Shanghai Century Litong routed about 240,000 Nvidia H100, H200 and A100 chips—worth roughly $7.5 billion—to China, where computing capacity reportedly served Alibaba, Tencent and other AI firms; the claims have not been independently verified. Nvidia’s reported results and guidance do not include those alleged transfers, and its board has opened an internal review amid scrutiny of possible export-control violations.
