EA Sports names WRs Ryan Williams, Jeremiah Smith as College Football 26 cover athletes
Alabama's Ryan Williams and Ohio State's Jeremiah Smith are the cover athletes for EA Sports College Football 26, the video-game developer announced Tuesday. The electric sophomore wide receivers were picked for the second edition of the franchise's reboot. Last year's game was the first in 11 years and was among the best-selling video games in 2024. Williams and Smith are posed together on the standard cover, while the deluxe edition also includes other players, coaches, mascots and former cover stars Reggie Bush, Tim Tebow and Denard Robinson. The '26 edition will test if the franchise still has the same staying power it had when it was released annually in the early 2000s. For the players who are featured in the game, it will certainly remain popular. Williams said in a statement released by EA Sports that the cover was 'a dream come true,' and Smith called it 'a tremendous privilege.' 'I'm proud to represent Ohio State alongside Coach (Ryan) Day while carrying the Buckeye legacy forward, celebrating the passion of our fans and the tradition of this incredible program,' Smith said. Williams and Smith broke onto the national scene in 2024 with their miraculous catches on the biggest stages. Williams' spinning TD grab to help beat then-No. 2 Georgia looked like it belonged in a video game. It was one of many wowing plays from the young receiver. Williams finished his freshman season with 48 receptions for 865 yards and eight receiving touchdowns. Smith was a major part of the Buckeyes' run to a national championship. He regularly hauled in one-handers that decimated the confidence of his defenders. In a CFP quarterfinals win over top-seeded Oregon, Smith had seven receptions, 187 yards and two touchdowns. He finished his freshman year with 76 catches, 1,315 yards and 15 receiving touchdowns. ___ Get poll alerts and updates on the AP Top 25 throughout the season. Sign up here. AP college football: and

Photo courtesy of NHL May 19 (UPI) -- The National Hockey League's Stanley Pup will return in 2025 with 32 adoptable dogs. The second annual event airs June 6 at 7 p.m. EDT on TruTV in the United States and June 7 at 6 p.m. on Sportsnet in Canada. The show will also be available June 8 at 7 p.m. on NHL Network and the NHL's digital platforms. This year's Stanley Pup will see each of the league's 32 teams have an adoptable dog representing it at the competition. Each pup is local to its team's area. Chris Rose and Mark Shunock will serve as commentators. The program will also feature celebrities such as Anthony Anderson, Cedric the Entertainer, Cheri O'teri, George Lopez, Jamie Lee Curtis, Joel McHale, Michael Bublé, Nikki Glaser, Paula Abdul and Will Reeve, and NHL players including Tampa Bay Lightning's Victor Hedman, Carolina Hurricanes' Jaccob Slavin, Florida Panthers' Sam Bennett, Utah Mammoth's Alexander Kerfoot and Washington Capitals' Brandon Duhaime and Ryan Leonard. "There's nothing more gratifying than to make content that actually changes lives, and in this case, both for the dogs needing homes and the families that adopt them. Two paws up to the NHL for doing their part to help pups in need and giving us this platform to show people how shelter dogs deserve to be part of every family's starting lineup," executive producer Michael Levitt said in a press release. The Stanley Cup Finals will take place in June. Playoffs began April 19. The Stanley Pup follows the 21st annual Puppy Bowl in February, which coincided with Super Bowl LIX, the National Football League championship game.
