Dylan Grant leads Rutgers' evolving lineup against American in a potential NCAA Tournament appearance for both teams, averaging 5.9 points in 21 games and producing three double-digit scoring games last season. This year, Grant has reached double figures in each game and is leading the Scarlet Knights (3-0) in scoring at 18.3 points while shooting 60% after shooting 44.5% as a freshman. Grant's improvement has been attributed to his growth from his time back in college, where he struggled with the ball and didn't play as much due to injuries. His current coach Steve Pikiell praises Grant for handling the ball now and scoring in different ways. On top of Grant, Emmanuel Ogbole added 16 points after totaling seven in wins over Rider and Maine, while Jamichael Davis averaged career bests of 12.3 points, 4.0 rebounds, and 2.3 assists per game. American (2-2), coming off its first NCAA Tournament bid since 2014, will face a power-conference opponent in a potential matchup for both teams. The Eagles took an 88-74 loss on November 3 at Wake Forest but have since won four straight games, including a 115-50 win over Division II Central Penn that marked their largest margin of victory in program history and most points since 1995.

Daniel Jones must bounce back for Indianapolis Colts in Week 10, according to Mike Sullivan's analysis from Deadspin. The Colts' quarterback has reverted to his old form after a disappointing loss to the Pittsburgh Steelers, throwing three interceptions and losing two fumbles. This marks five turnovers by Jones alone, similar to Daniel Jones of the New York Giants last season. Jones led the NFL in passing yards with 2,404 while throwing 14 touchdowns against six interceptions during his sixth NFL campaign. Indianapolis is home to Pro Bowl guard Quenton Nelson, who has protected Jones well this season. However, if Jones struggles again, it could have a negative impact on the Colts' chances of winning. The Colts need Jones to bounce back from another subpar performance and are hoping he can regain his form after a disappointing loss to the Atlanta Falcons in Berlin.

No. 15 Louisville holds CFP hopes ahead of matchup vs. Cal, where quarterback Miller Moss will face Jaron-Keawe Sagapolutele in a crucial test for both teams. The Cardinals (7-1) are without key offensive player Isaac Brown, who suffered a right leg injury late in their 28-16 win at Virginia Tech. Louisville's running backs have battled injuries throughout the season, but Keyjuan Brown has stepped up with impressive performances. Louisville ranks sixth in the ACC, averaging 155.8 rushing yards per game, and is expected to face Cal (5-4) which has dropped its last two games and three of the last four. The Bears' defense has struggled, giving up 205.4 yards per game in conference play. Meanwhile, Cal's offense has been intercepted nine times and sacked seven times in their last two games. If Louisville wins, it would secure a spot in the College Football Playoff (CFP) and potentially become bowl eligible for the third straight season, snapping Miami's six-game streak without an CFP appearance since 2008.
