“I felt like I got up here (to the majors) quick, which I was very humbled about,” said Vaughn, the No. 3 pick in the 2019 draft. “But there’s definitely a learning curve. You’ve got to learn the pitchers, learn how they’re going to pitch you, learn how to slow the game down even though it tries to speed up on you. Just show up every day and be a professional.
“I’m trying to win a game, not lose a game, and I know that sounds silly because we just lost it,” Bielema said after making a similar decision last week. “But it’s the decision I’d make 100 times over to go for it —ball on the 5, the defense has been playing that way the whole way. I’d do it 100 times over.”
On the third play of Wisconsin’s next drive, defensive tackle Jayson Ademilola forced a Mertz fumble, and Isaiah Mosley recovered it at the Badgers 46. Pyne, who replaced Coan in the third quarter, hit Austin for a 16-yard touchdown with 9 minutes, 34 seconds remaining, putting Notre Dame up 24-13.

Moments earlier, Jordan Spieth and Justin Thomas wrapped up a 2-up win over Viktor Hovland and Bernd Wiesberger — a match they trailed 3 down after six holes. With Spieth in the win column, every American contributed at least a point through the first 12 matches.
“Now, in the preseason they had nakeds, but those types of nakeds that he threw back to Jesse James, that’s a dream in the regular season when someone is game planning, as are some of the runs that he had. I think the Browns will have a plan of attack for how they want to rush him and contain him to the pocket. So you’ve got to do things to get him on the edge. That’s where his strength is right now. He’s got a long way to go as far as reading defenses. He missed that easy Sam/Mike blitz against the Bills and he got hit in the face. Matt Leinart did that and had his collarbone broken in Arizona, and that’s like the easiest blitz there is. He missed it completely. So he’s got a long way to go just to be a drop-back guy, and his strength is buying time, creating space with his feet and then running.
“Obviously his was worse, he had a full spiral fracture and all that, but the infection was what caused the problem, and I’m like, man, I’m laying on a dirt field right now,” Adam, 30, recalled Friday afternoon. “So the infection was scary, but then the doctors reassured me that, hey, as long as we avoid an infection this is actually a pretty standard recovery.”
Last weekend, in a home game in which the defense was playing lights out, the Bears offense managed only 13 points on 10 possessions and was only able to squeeze out two field goals from the three short-field possessions the defense provided with takeaways. The second-half output of 83 yards and four first downs wasn’t good enough. On Sunday, on the road, against a quality opponent and with a rookie quarterback making his first start, it’s hard to see the offense finding an instant groove.
“Maybe not baseball-wise at that time, but we were contractually (different), where we are in the timeline of a team,” Hoyer said. “I think that played a huge role in the decision, and we knew that going into the season. We had so many free agents, if we weren’t clearly in the race, that was a decision we might have to make. For (the Cardinals), with their contractual situation, that wasn’t a road they were going to go down.”
