A meeting commenced among Green Bay wide receivers after a loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers. Here's how the young group hopes to move on from that conversation.

Among the storylines is Packers' Jordan Love facing a fellow quarterback from his draft class, Justin Herbert of the Chargers.

Badgers quarterback Tanner Mordecai delivered for Wisconsin and his fellow seniors in the biggest moments Saturday against Nebraska.

The Badgers' best offensive player was battling an ankle injury and a migraine. But there was no way Braelon Allen was sitting out what might be his final home game.

With responsible gun owners and non-gun owners overwhelmingly supporting some gun control, a picture is worth 1,000 words.
