Michigan State football included in ESPN's preseason bowl projections
One of the two experts at ESPN has the Spartans bowling this season. ESPN has released their preseason bowl projections, and one of the two writers included in the projections has the Spartans reaching the postseason this fall. That would be Mark Schlabach, while Kyle Bonagura has Michigan State failing to reach bowl eligibility for a fourth straight season. Schlabach has Michigan State landing in the nearby GameAbove Sports Bowl in Detroit. His projected matchup for the Spartans is against Ohio out of the Mid-American Conference. Michigan State comes into this season with a win total over/under of 5.5, signifying the Spartans will be right on the fringe of reaching the postseason. The Spartans went 5-7 last season in year one under head coach Jonathan Smith, but expectations have been raised this year with fans expecting a bowl berth from the Spartans. Michigan State opens the 2025 season next week against Western Michigan. Kickoff from Spartan Stadium on August 29 is scheduled for 7 p.m. ET.

The LIV Golf tournament in Westfield beat attendance predictions. How the city benefited
More than 60,000 attendees visited The Club at Chatham Hills in Westfield over the weekend for the LIV Golf tournament, according to the city, generating increased foot traffic for some local businesses. The three-day tournament was LIV Golf's highest-attended U.S. event to date. The event will be back in Westfield in August of next year, with tickets already for sale. In the months leading up to the golf tournament, which featured some of the best players in the sport, Westfield officials said they expected it to have a $21-29 million economic impact on the city. Westfield and Hamilton County Tourism, Inc. are still working to calculate the actual economic impact the tournament had on the city, but it drew in far more attendees than the 25,000 officials had predicted in November that the original projections were based on. Previous coverage: Westfield to host LIV Golf event in August, with expected $21M economic impact A few business owners said they noticed an increase in sales. 'Most of last week, we definitely saw increased foot traffic with visitors in the area,' said Caroline Commons, general manager of Rivet Coffee Bar & Roastery, which has locations on Jersey Street and inside the public library in Westfield. 'Friday and Saturday, in particular, were especially busy days for us.' Many of the visitors had lanyards for the tournament or were wearing golf attire, Caroline Commons said. Allie Commons, the owner of the coffee shop business, said Rivet came close to having one of their top selling Saturdays during the tournament. Zoe Haugk, a manager at Titus Bakery and Deli, just off State Road 32, said her business also saw increased foot traffic coming from the golf tournament. They got a special order for golf ball cookies at the bakery, Haugk said. Some other owners reached by IndyStar, though, said they didn't notice an impact. A city official estimated it will take about 30 days to complete the economic impact report for the event. The tournament featured fan engagement activities, interactive experiences, live music and opportunities for local businesses to participate and benefit from the event's economic impact. Ahead of the event, The Club at Chatham Hills lengthened its course, renovated bunkers and made other improvements. LIV Golf hosts events all over the world, including in South Korea, Dallas, Andalucía, the UK and Chicago. 'The Indiana region, city of Westfield, Hamilton County, and Chatham Hills have all been tremendous hosts to LIV Golf, and we're looking forward to building on this momentum when the league returns to The Club at Chatham Hills in 2026,' said Ross Hallett, LIV Golf executive vice president, head of events in a news release announcing the tournament's return to Westfield next year. 'From the course's outstanding design to the record attendance and fantastic energy throughout the community, this week's Indiana debut has exceeded our high expectations. We've already begun planning for next year, and we can't wait to raise the bar in 2026.' Westfield Mayor Scott Willis said he was also looking forward to the event returning to the city next year. 'We couldn't be more excited to welcome LIV Golf back to Westfield in 2026 having already experienced the incredible energy, economic boost and international spotlight during this year's tournament,' Willis said in the news release. 'It's an outstanding opportunity to showcase our community, hospitality and quality of life that makes Westfield a destination.'

Report: NBC Sports, USA, Golf Channel expected to keep U.S. Open, U.S. Women's Open
Despite a serious bid from Netflix, it appears the U.S. Open and U.S. Women's Open will stay on the same group of TV networks, according to reporting done by John Ourand of Puck. The U.S. Golf Association's contract with NBCUniversal runs through Dec. 31, 2026, but the two sides are working to re-sign for a longer term, which would keep the two major championships (among others) on NBC, USA Network and the Golf Channel. Back in 2020, the USGA moved its media rights from Fox Sports to NBCUniversal, a move that ended a 12-year deal with Fox Sports worth about $1 billion. After the COVID-19 pandemic forced the USGA to move the dates of the U.S. Open from June to September, Fox Sports struggled to find the broadcast hours needed for the championship, USGA officials noted, given their additional commitments to the NFL, MLB and college football. Talks that began looking into how Fox Sports and NBC/Golf Channel might work together ultimately ended in NBC taking over entirely. But with the contract due to expire at the end of next year, and NBC Universal taking a different look, talks are on to extend the deal with the same partners. According to a story from CNBC back in May, Comcast spun off most of its cable network stations into a new company named Versant. Versant, which had been called SpinCo until a permanent name was chosen, will own cable networks including USA, CNBC, MSNBC, Oxygen, E!, SYFY and Golf Channel. It will also house digital assets Fandango, Rotten Tomatoes, GolfNow, GolfPass and SportsEngine. The rest of Comcast's NBCUniversal portfolio, including the broadcast network, Peacock streaming service, Universal Studios, the theme parks and Bravo, will remain with Comcast. The new name isn't meant to be consumer-facing. Lazarus said he wants Versant to be viewed as a house of brands, with each asset interacting with users rather than the corporate holding entity. This would mark Versant's first major sports rights deal and it's expected to net the USGA roughly the same as the original Fox deal did in 2013. This time around, Netflix had bid for the rights, after ESPN, CBS and Warner Bros. Discovery inquired, but the NBCUniversal extension appears to be the most likely scenario.
