With the score tied at  68 with five seconds remaining, the Yellow Jackets’ Kyle Sturdivant drove the  left side of the lane and missed a step-back jumper along the baseline. Terry,  who had inbounded the ball after a timeout, followed down the left side and  delivered a two-handed tip-in for the victory that snapped a nine-game losing  streak. Georgia Tech held Notre Dame to 1-of-11 field goal shooting over the  final seven minutes and the Yellow Jackets won despite making only 2 of 8 shots  down the stretch.

NFL – Chiefs’ Mahomes says ankle will be ready for  Super Bowl

  Patrick Mahomes says he’s “definitely in a better  spot” when it comes to his ailing right ankle than he was for the AFC  championship game. The All-Pro quarterback also says he doesn’t expect to be  limited by it when he leads the Kansas City Chiefs against the Philadelphia  Eagles in the Super Bowl. Mahomes spoke before Wednesday’s practice at Arizona  State’s facility. He said he’ll probably continue to get treatment on the ankle  he hurt against Jacksonville in the divisional round throughout the week and  possibly right up until kickoff.

NFL – Super Bowl has rare matchup of top 2  regular-season teams

  This year’s Super Bowl features a rare matchup of the  NFL’s top two teams from the regular season. The Philadelphia Eagles and Kansas  City Chiefs were the league’s only 14-game winners, marking just the sixth time  since the 1970 merger that the squads with sole possession of the two best  records in the regular season met for the championship. The last time it  happened came after the 2013 season when Seattle beat Denver 43-8 in a matchup  of 13-win teams.

NCAAFB – Northwestern to host Iowa at Wrigley Field

  Wrigley Field will host a college football game for  the third time since 2010 when Iowa plays Northwestern next season.  Northwestern and the Chicago Cubs announced that the Wildcats’ home game would  be played Nov. 4. Northwestern played Illinois at Wrigley in 2010 in the MLB  ballpark’s first college football game since 1938 and the Wildcats hosted  Purdue there in 2021. Wrigley Field has a long history of hosting football  games. The Chicago Bears played there from 1921 to 1970. The old Chicago  Cardinals also played at Wrigley Field as well as DePaul University until its  program folded in 1939.

SPHL – Minor league hockey game a forfeit after home  team no-shows

  A bizarre scene unfolded in a low-level minor hockey  league over the weekend: The home team didn’t show up. The visiting team from  Quad City took the ice for warmups at the arena in Danville, Illinois, for a  Southern Professional Hockey League game at the Vermilion County Bobcats. Fans  filed in, vendors sold concessions and officials were there to drop the puck.  But the Bobcats had no players, their coach did not show up and they had no  athletic trainer on site. After a delay of game penalty and 5-minute delay, it  was declared a forfeit and visiting players skated with fans and took the  3-hour bus ride home. There are now concerns last-place Vermilion County, which  has lost 77 of 86 games in its existence, will fold midseason.

Olympics – Probe into US Olympic failings stunted by  red tape in DC

  More than two years since it was greenlighted by  Congress, the panel established to probe the inner workings of the U.S.  Olympics has yet to conduct a formal interview because of bureaucratic red tape  in Washington. The Commission on the State of U.S. Olympics and Paralympics is charged  with looking how U.S. leaders handled sex-abuse cases that were mismanaged for  decades. It took 19 months after it was established in October 2020 for the  commission to receive the $2 million Congress budgeted for its use. Then, it  took eight more months to identify and hire the panel’s executive director. Now  that those issues are resolved, however, the commission has to decide how to  spend the money by Sept. 30 or risk not being able to use it.
