With four blocks in the win over Iowa, Granberry became the 20th active player in NCAA division one volleyball to reach 400 career blocks. She finished with four on the night for the Hoosiers.  During her college career, Granberry has been one of the best players at her position. She&#8217;s averaging a career high 1.31 blocks per set this season, a top five mark in the Big Ten. During conference games only, Granberry is second in the league with 1.44 blocks per set. She needs one more rejection to reach 90 blocks in a season for the fourth time in her career.  Granberry&#8217;s impact has been felt in a big way by the IU program this year. The Hoosiers have had double-digit blocks in six of the last seven matches this season. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Indianapolis Colts struggles continue in 27-23 loss to the Dallas Cowboys as losing streak reaches 5 straight games<\/strong>                                                             Javonte Williams scored the go-ahead touchdown on a 1-yard run with 1:08 remaining to cap a 101-yard rushing day, and the Dallas Cowboys rallied to beat the Indianapolis Colts 27-23 on Sunday.  The short-handed Cowboys (4-5) blew a fourth-quarter lead for the second straight week, but this time Dak Prescott led them on a four-play, 65-yard drive that took only 29 seconds and was helped by two Indy penalties. Williams punched it in on a play where it looked like the Colts (2-6) let him score, leaving time on the clock and two timeouts.  But Daniel Jones, who had driven the Colts into field-goal range on each of Indy&#8217;s previous two series, was picked off by Caleb Downs with 35 seconds left to seal Indy&#8217;s fifth consecutive loss.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Prescott was 21 of 34 for 335 yards with two touchdowns and lost a fumble that set up the Colts&#8217; first touchdown. Williams was the workhorse, carrying 20 times after Tyler Goodson left in the first half with a knee injury. CeeDee Lamb finished with 10 catches for 195 yards and a touchdown, though he lost a fumble.  Spencer Shrader made a 59-yard field goal to tie the score with 5:56 to play and a 50-yarder to give Indy a 23-20 lead with 1:37 left. But it wasn&#8217;t enough for the Colts.  Jones was 20 of 34 for 180 yards with one TD and the interception. Seth McGowan had six carries for 45 yards and a score, and Jonathan Taylor finished with 46 yards on 13 carries and lost a fumble in what could be his final game with the Colts. Taylor and Jones have been the subject of trade speculation ahead of Tuesday&#8217;s deadline.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dallas outgained Indy 508 yards to 271, but a series of Cowboys miscues kept the Colts in the game. The Cowboys had 14 penalties for 153 yards, including an unsportsmanlike conduct call when DeMarvion Overshown ran onto the field to celebrate a takeaway despite being inactive. Also, Lamb fumbled the ball away on a catch-and-run that he took inside the Colts 15-yard line. The Colts were booed again as they went to the locker at halftime down 17-7. But after the teams traded third-quarter field goals, Ashton Dulin caught a short pass from Jones, made two defenders miss and sprinted down the sideline for a 55-yard score to cut the deficit 20-17 late in the third.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Dallas Cowboys had three starters, including receiver George Pickens, were inactive. There has also been speculation Pickens could be traded. The most serious injury in the game was to tight end Jake Ferguson, who did not return after hurting his left knee in the third quarter.  Indianapolis Colts Linebacker Jaylon Carlies (neck) and right tackle Jalen Travis (knee) left in the first half and did not return.  Fifteen members of the Downs family attended the game to watch as younger brother Caleb got the better of Colts receiver Josh Downs. It was the first time the brothers squared off since their Georgia prep days. Yes, they lined up against one another, and, yes, there was some trash-talking long before Caleb Downs&#8217; game-sealing interception. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keenan Allen continued climbing the NFL&#8217;s career receiving list, moving past Hall of Famer Tim Brown and into eighth. Allen caught three passes in the first half to match Brown, then surpassed him with his only catch of the second half. He finished with four catches for 26 yards, giving him 1,095 receptions. The Dallas Cowboys begin a three-game homestand next Sunday against San Francisco while the Indianapolis Colts Host Miami next Sunday in what could be a matchup of rebuilding teams.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Butler Men&#8217;s Basketball fall 100-81 to Boise State as they suffer their first loss of the season<\/strong>                                                                                                     Aginaldo Neto had 25 points in Boise State&#8217;s 100-81 win over Butler on Sunday.

Dovydas Butka shot 5 of 11 from the field and 4 of 5 from the free-throw line to finish with 14 points.  Eduardo Klafke and Jalen Jackson each scored 19 points for the Bulldogs (2-1). Jordan Ellerbee finished with 16 points.  Boise State took the lead with 19:24 left in the first half and did not trail again.

The move announced by the school came one day after Purdue (3-6, 2-4 Big Ten) gave up 27 second-half points and multiple big plays in a 34-29 loss to Maryland<a href=\"https:\/\/www.wthr.com\/article\/sports\/ncaa\/ncaaf\/purdue-boilermakers-fall-to-maryland-terrapins-34-29-big-ten-college-football\/531-aefdb897-555f-4bb6-9c4d-1979b38d2148\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">.<\/a> The victory allowed the Terrapins (3-6, 1-5) to snap a 13-game conference losing streak.  Fans had been clamoring for a change almost from the moment things went south following a season-opening win over Football Championship Subdivision school Indiana State.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But Odom brushed off any suggestion he would make a switch and again declined to discuss a potential change following Saturday&#8217;s loss even though he sounded more frustrated than usual.  Odom was not available to take questions Sunday and has not said who will take over as the play-caller, though he has done that himself in his previous coaching stops. He is expected to discuss the change during his regular weekly news conference Monday.  \u201cYou can&#8217;t play as good as we did early on defense, and then all of a sudden you give up four explosive plays \u2014 really for touchdowns,\u201d he said. \u201cYou&#8217;ll never win games doing that.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Boilermakers have struggled since reaching the Big Ten championship game in 2022.  Ryan Walters, Odom&#8217;s predecessor, went 5-19 overall and 3-15 in conference play during his two seasons in West Lafayette. Last year, Purdue was 2-10 but went winless in league play for the second straight season and had one of the worst statistical defenses in the nation. And after Purdue opened this season with a win, the defensive struggles continued until an October victory over Illinois finally the Boilermaker&#8217;s 19-game losing streak in league play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Over the last month, Purdue appeared to be making progress defensively, which helped quiet some of the cries for a change. But the fans&#8217; complaints began again following Saturday&#8217;s regression.  \u201cI&#8217;ve never been one to comment a lot on that publicly,\u201d Odom said when asked specifically about staff changes. \u201cI think No. 1, we all have to \u2014 starting with the head coach \u2014 and all the way down the flow chart, we&#8217;ve got to do a better job. Whatever we have done, it hasn&#8217;t resulted in as quick a result as we have all wanted. How do we fix that? I do think we have good coaches. I think we&#8217;ve got guys that are working really hard. But, right now, when we play the way we did, not near consistent enough to play winning ball, I expect more. I know everybody else does, too.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Kane served as Purdue&#8217;s defensive coordinator for both of Walters&#8217; seasons. Everyone on staff was let go following the end of the 2024 season, one in which Purdue suffered the two worst losses in program history to its two in-state rivals \u2014 66-7 to Notre Dame and 66-0 at Indiana.  Last season, Kane served as Minnesota&#8217;s linebackers coach and worked with the Golden Gophers nickel backs. Odom brought him back to Purdue as the coordinator this season.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Indiana&#8217;s Mintje Hagen &amp; Ines Garcia Prado Selected to Big Ten Field Hockey All-Tournament Team Indiana&#8217;s Mijntje Hagen and In\u00e9s Garcia Prado were selected to the Big Ten&#8217;s All-Tournament Team as announced by the conference on Sunday afternoon.
