game is all about revenge after the colts alerted theed path in january. >> it's not the extra incentive to stick it to them. >> i'm always pretty motivated regardless of the team of the week. >> it doesn't matter. for us, it's not the last game. >> it's another game for us. >> we're all excited to get up there and play. >> we're just going to go up there and play like any other game. we'll see how it turns out. >> starting at 11:30 this

tune into the wbz for our fifth quarter post-game show. things looking good early for them. it didn't last. the tigers fake the play. 21 yards. the tigers didn't look back from there. lafayette hosting harvard. paul stanton running the first quarter to put harvard up 7- nothing. the crimson never looked back. they go onto win it 42-nothing. michigan and michigan state, spartans trail most of the

game. after review down at the 1, michigan state would score. 23-21. the final seconds now, all they have to do is punt it away or even make the down. >> the ball is free. it's picked up by michigan state. jackson, and he scores on the last play of the game. unbelievable. >> what a great call. jackson recovered it. the spartans score to take down the wolves.

scores the only hit. this would open up the flood gates between price and company. the highlight of this inning, rb i double. kansas city would score five in that inning. lead the series two games to none. >> cubs and mets down to new york. travis down to john lester. 436'. locally, sam kennedy officially taking over as red sox president on friday. he takes over for larry lukeno

workload. the two have already begun collaborations. we collaborate on a number of different issues. >> he's a decision-maker, and 37 years working in baseball operations. >> good luck to kennedy and company trying to get back on top. back to college football. penn state falls. but it's all about the colts and the patriots this weekend. >> all right. thanks, dan.

looking at temperatures around the area. many of you are in the 20s. standing at the low 30s. it hasn't happened since 1979. it will probably end up about 33. very dry out there. the wind chill is present in some places. tomorrow morning, this is another breeze.

20s to lower 30s. you'll probably want to bring the plants in tonight. sugar low, a couple of tweets from there. looks beautiful. we have the cold air moving in from the northwest. that cold stays with us tonight and tomorrow. on tuesday and wednesday, the high return to the east. that's better for us. that means temperatures go back into the 50s and 60s, where we should be. it only takes a couple of hours to get back up into new hampshire. some great foliage viewing.

maybe not quite as good as last year, but still good. you need to bundle up. in the sun is a little bit better. temperatures stay pretty similar from north to south or east to west. there may be a pop-up sprinkle as they rush over the cape cod waters. otherwise, it does look like it will be dry. temperatures in the 40s and 50s, but then, it does warm up. let's show you what happens to temperatures, folks, after tomorrow. low 60s on wednesday. that's going to feel like a heat wave around here, carrie.

despite the cold weather, putting ice cream to the

for the girl scout meeting... ok! for the soccer team... for the girl scout meeting... how many meetings are you having?! stop & shop just dropped prices on thousands more items. which makes the checkout lane, victory lane.

the cool contenders were blue bunny, blue bell, and -- the official ice cream cone of the boston red sox. on the surface, this chocolate dipped cone. after just a couple of soggy bites, it falls apart, literally. next up is friendly's. it features sunday cones that were partly delicious and partly disappointing. the best of the bunch by far. the crunchies on top aren't quite that crunchy. the runner-up is

the clear plastic. the first few bites of this ice cream is satisfied. a generous chocolate lining not only keeps it crisp, but in part has rich flavor. proving bigger is not only better. the ice cream is smooth with great vanilla flavor. the sugar cone is sweet and crunchy with a delicious chocolate nugget hiding at the bottom. that's why blue bunny vanilla swirls are at the top of the food chain. for more, watch at 10:30 at 11:00. we'll be back in 2. stay with

mornings. wonderful, crazy mornings. we figure you probably don't have time to wait on hold. that's why at xfinity we're hard at work, building new apps like this one that lets you choose a time for us to call you.

waiting on hold, we'll call you when things are just as wonderful... [phone rings] but a little less crazy. we're doing everything we can to give you the best experience possible. because we should fit into your life.

. good morning, everybody. it is 8:00. we're glad you're waking up with us. good time to wake up, 8:00. that would be nice. >> 8:00? that's like half over. >> sounds good to me. >> we're glad you're joining us, no matter what time. going to be chilly. >> right. is your heat on? or do you have to physically put it on?

>> no, i have to put it on. >> did you put it on? >> no, i put the gas fireplace on. >> someone tweeted me, not until november 1. >> some people like to hold out. >> come on, it's like the coldest day since 1998. you can turn it on one one day! it is chilly right now. 34 degrees if you're running the road race, with a little breeze. feel good. on. of course we've got the big head of the charles, the 50th one. temperatures in the mid-40s this afternoon, so the early heats going on will be in the 30s, then into the 40s this afternoon. this is my -- didn't take two hours to get down there, i would go down to well fleet and sit around and eat oysters all day. in lowell.

so indeed, it's going to be chilly this afternoon. mid-40s just about everywhere, but tons of sunshine and a little bit of a breeze. >> dave, thank you so much. we have a feeling halloween is going to come early. in indianapolis today, the patriots will be going for a monster mash of the team that started the deflate-gate scandal. the pats are 10-point favorites, although we couldn't get anyone from foxborough to admit this would be a grudge match or a blowout. it isn't the patriot way, so we'll do it for them. sports director steve burton is 14. 17. you can read all of their reasoning at cbsboston.com. now, the outcome of the game may not be in question, but we won't know for several more hours which qb will take

andrew luck has missed the last two games and is still listed as questionable with a shoulder injury. his replacement, matt hasselbeck, is on a good streak. he has won his last two games. of course the patriots, though, are undefeated so far. either way, we did find one high profile pats fan hoping for no mercy. during an interview with the new york daily news, tom brady, sr. spoke out about how he would like things to play out tonight. he said the main thing is i want to see them win as long as they have one point more than the colts, i'm fine. that being said, i would like to see them put 60 points on the board and love to see tom throw for 500 yards and eight touchdowns. that's me dreaming. that kind of comes from me. well, not surprisingly, the rivalry is all over twitter as well. indiana governor mike pence tweeted out this picture of a deflated ball with the caption "you can always tell when the patriots are in town." well, don't worry.

governor baker responded with this image. it shows a patriots-themed suv with a colts-themed car right in the dumpster. steve burton is with the patriots in indianapolis. look for his live reports tonight on wbz and, as always, we have you covered on game day. you can get things started with patriots game day at 11:30 right horry on wbz. the game starts at 8:30. afterwards, turn back to wbz for the fifth quarter post game show. meanwhile, in other news this morning, a family is in mourning over a deadly crash that should never have happened. police say a drunk driver is to blame for killing a beloved grandmother. the woman's car was hit from behind. her family spoke only to wbz. jim smith has the exclusive interview. >> reporter: this is a real tragedy. a woman loved by many, killed just a few miles from her house here on route 6. police say this is a case of drunk driving.

>> reporter: geraldine korea of dartmouth will be sorely missed. 74 years old. mrs. korea lost her life in a terrible car crash friday night on route 6 in westport. she was driving this toyota corolla when police say it was struck and flipped over by a ford escape. that driver was not seriously hurt, but he will be charged with drunk driving. kim korea is now grieving the loss of her mother, who was running a quick earned, but never came back home. >> i was on my way home from work and we got rerouted and i called home to let them know i was going to be a little bit late and my father told me there was a major car accident and that my mother was involved and that she passed away. >> reporter: police say the driver of the ford escape was westport. geraldine korea's car was the road before it flipped. she was thrown from the

>> she was a very loving and compassionate woman and didn't deserve what she got. he was driving reckless and he was drinking. why would you get behind the wheel? he's going to deserve everything he gets. >> reporter: geraldine leaves behind a husband and a grieving family. robert hanson is charged with motor vehicle homicide by oui. he is due in court on monday morning. in westport, jim smith, wbz this morning. tomorrow, the man accused of killing a swan scott mother could be granted bail. pros securities charged jason flurry with murdering 25-year- old jamie mendez. in november, her family reported her missing. her remains were discovered on kings beach in swan scott two months later. flurry has been in jail since his arrest. the woman responsible for the disappearance of some artwork at the boston public library is now out of a job. the liar fired susan glover, who was in charge of special collections. earlier this year, the library

reported two prints, including one by rembrandt, missing. they were later found misplaced inside the library. glover had been paid on paid leave during the investigation. this afternoon, the city of medford will dedicate the krystle campbell peace garden. the mayor calls the ground breaking right behind city hall a celebration of life. the boston university pep band and mit honor guard are scheduled to attend. campbell was one of three people killed at the boston marathon finish line. victims, family members, as well as several survivors will be at today's ceremony. also today, a massachusetts bay community college will host the third annual mass bay 5k run/walk all to benefit the krystle campbell scholarship. campbell graduated from the school back in 2005. the walk starts at 10:00 this morning at the school in wellesley. so will he run or won't he? political insiders say vice president joe biden is dropping

>> also coming up in our next half hour, the trooper whose cruiser was hit by a tractor- trailer and the charges the

. yes, it's chilly. there's been the first frost in many locations. lot of the gardens are kaput. done. degrees. that's all we'll muster. that's about 15 below the average. >> dave, thank you so much. campaign 2016, cnn reports after meeting with the powerful firefighters union, vice president joe biden indicated that he's planning to run for the white house. last night, biden was honored with a human rights award in new york and gave an emotional speech about religious freedom. >> for so many of us, it is our faith that sees us through times of trouble. it is our faith that urges us to rise each and every morning

look, to put one foot in front of the other. as my son beau used to say, just keep moving forward. >> after biden's remarks, some people in the crowd shouted "run, joe, run! ". the vice president didn't respond. as things stand right now, hillary clinton and vermont senator bernie sanders are in a tight race for the democratic presidential nomination. a new suffolk university boston globe poll puts clinton at 37% support, sanders at 35, but clinton's performance at last week's debate may give her the boost she needs. more than half of the voters questioned in the poll say she won the debate. sanders is definitely winning the social media race for the cutest meme. supporters who and parents have been photographic their babies

or instagraming or facebooking them with the #babiesforbernie. grandparents will do anything for their grandchildren. coming up, the couple who launched an entire movement. >> and is it your birthday today? let's check who you celebrate with? lindsey vonn, 31. jean claude van dam. dawn wells, it's mary anne from giligan's island! 77 today. if it's your birthday, happy

. welcome back, everyone. dave's a big gardener. he brought us some treats. i've never seen an apple that big. what kind is it? >> i don't think there's honeycrisps left, but there's tons of apples. that's a honeycrisp. >> oh, you took them all? >> i got this a little earlier. call the local farms, apple picking, they rely on patrons to support them, get them through. >> it's that time of year. you can go today. bundle up. it's a great day to get outside and enjoy new england fall. get your pumpkin today.

morning. but the cold temperatures don't really hurt the apples. they can handle it, until it gets down into the mid-20s. then we start to have problems. it's also the number of hours it's cold. by the way, there's a really great shot of three planets and maybe four if you are in a dark enough area. definitely venus, jupiter, mars before sunrise tomorrow morning. you could see it this morning, but check it out again tomorrow morning if you're up. 5:30, 6:00, just look to the east and you'll definitely see it. temperatures moderate by the middle part of the upcoming week. planning your day, mid-30s to 40s, all we'll get and a little moon tonight as you're preparing for your monday or just enjoying the patriots game over a big bowl of chili. that kind of day, isn't it? >> yeah, a big plate of nachos sounds good to me. >> there you go. >> you have to give us tips on our pumpkins. my pumpkin always rots. makes me crazy.

>> you probably put it in the sun. >> no, i left it in the kitchen for a few days. maybe it's the gas fireplace i put on, about two feet from it. >> they just told me in my ear we got to keep going. more stuff to talk about. >> all right. keep going. 34 degrees in boston, 38 in new york, 37 in buffalo, 37 out there in cleveland. the cold air continues to come down from the north and that's going to be with us for the next couple of days. current temperatures, as we've shown you, mostly in the 20s and 30s. it wasn't a particularly hard freeze in terms of damage. so you may notice some plants kind of made it through the overnight hours because it's the number of hours below freezing that really matters. so some places were only below freezing for an hour or two. some things might have made it. boston right now, 34 degrees. dewpoint at 21. northwesterly wind at 10. that puts the windchills down in the 20s across the area, so definitely cold. speaking of 20s, that's where we will be tomorrow morning,

down into the 20s from pittsburgh to worcester. boston, probably about 33 tomorrow, so i don't think there will be a hard freeze or a frost in the city. but west roxbury, brighton, you'll have freezes tomorrow morning. here we go with snow showers across the great lakes as the cold air goes over the relatively warm great lakes. that produces the snow showers and that is just the beginning of the lake effect machine. we had a couple of cold fronts go by the area over the past couple of days. that ushered in the cold air. eventually high pressure off towards the south will move further east. the return flow around it brings back milder air. that's going to happen during the middle part of the week. the foliage tracker shows we've got peak foliage running from northern maine all the way back down through new hampshire and vermont and even into the berkshires. we still have pretty good color, 50 to 75% in our immediate western suburbs. a little less than that toward the southeastern part of the state.

mountains here this morning and into the afternoon hours. really makes for great pictures. let's go to the seven-day forecast showing us temperatures in the 60s during the middle of the week. if you don't like the cold, it's going to get out of here. a little cooler next weekend, but not as cold. now i'll give it back to you. >> you're confusing me, dave. >> i'm sorry. it's my fault. >> make up your mind. >> tough to do. 8:20 right now. one in 68 children is diagnosed with autism. and this morning, boston holds its walk now for autism speaks. it's a milestone year. as david wade shows us, a year of reflection for the grandmother and grandfather who started it all. >> my involvement with autism began with a very healthy baby boy, our first grandchild. >> reporter: hard to believe there was a time when bob and suzanne wright knew nothing, zero, about autism. >> i said what is autism?

>> reporter: their grandson christian became the cutest little crash course in this maddening disease. within a year of christian's diagnosis, bob, the former chairman of nbc, and his wife founded autism speaks. that was 10 years ago. >> we doubled awareness levels. that's very hard to do. awareness drives action. >> reporter: awareness illuminated in blue on world autism day, which autism speaks started. the group is now focusing on improving services for families, creating jobs and housing to people with autism. of course bob wright's ultimate goal is to find a cure. he says he's not discouraged by how slow that's going. >> people say, well, you don't know what causes it. you don't know how to cure it. i said do you know how to spell cancer? diabetes? muscular dystrophy? i'll go down the line with you. >> reporter: autism speaks has started fund-raising walks in

>> when we go to the walks, i can see these families. you can tell, these people are winners. they just have a real tough challenge. >> can i have a kiss? >> reporter: as for christian, he just turned 14. his grandmother says he takes one step forward, one step back, but every step for 10 years has been motivation to his grandparents. >> christian, you are changing the world, because he is. i mean, now we have the world's attention. >> reporter: david wade, wbz news. >> the walk now for autism speaks is this morning at the xfinity center in mansfield. david wade is hosting the event. registration begins at 9:00 a.m. if pulled like to walk or donate, just go to autismspeaks.org. don't forget to bundle up! ahead this morning at 8:30, a mother makes a dangerous choice to drive hours to get her sick little son medical hospital. how a nurse with a keen attention to detail was able to put an end to an amber alert.

front of the house select committee on benghazi. it's a big political moment, but also in terms of finding out information in the attack that killed four americans, including the ambassador chris stevens. we'll talk to the chairman of that committee and then the ranking member elijah cummings. there's had been a lot of charges about politicalization of that committee. the chairman has as much defending to do perhaps as hillary clinton. we'll talk to david axelrod, political strategist to talk about the democratic debate and the shape of the contest in the wake of the first democratic debate. then we'll have a political round table to talk about both parties in the presidential race and a few other political issues, joined by bob woodward, the legendary watergate reporter, who has a new book out, with great new revelations about watergate. that will be fun too. >> we look forward to that, john. thank you so much. have a great show. remember, "face the nation"

. good morning, everybody. it 18:30 on this sunday morning. glad you're joining us. we are glad you're waking up

>> i know what you're thinking. so funny. you know me well. >> i do. >> what's going on? you bringing us chilly weather, or what? >> it is chilly. >> yeah. >> it's not superearly, but maybe four to seven days for the frost depending on where you are. worcester area, this is typical. further east, inside of 495, a little unusual to be this cold. >> surprises me. >> it's going to happen. >> i figured later october, early november. >> it's been a fairly warm month. we're a little bit above average. we haven't really had much chilly weather. all of a sudden it just comes slamming in. >> it hurts a little bit more. >> that's why it stings a little bit more. speaking of stinging, here we go. 45 this afternoon. 3:00 this afternoon, still 45 degrees. where you are, it might be 47. might be 43 if you're in the worcester hills. a nice day to drive down to well fleet and shuck some oysters and enjoy them.

upper 40s, lower 50s. might be a sprinkle, but lot of events going on. if you want to eat, head down there. looks like a good one. >> dave, thank you so much. well, a plymouth man is under arrest for operating under the influence after driving nearly 20 miles the wrong way on route 3. yeah, 20 miles. police say this man here, kevin palmer, crashed into a car heading north in borne. fortunately, nobody was hurt in the crash, but palmer kept going. state police eventually shut down the highway and deployed stop sticks on the road. they arrested palmer after two of his tires blew out near the sagamore bridge. a massachusetts state trooper injured when his cruiser was hit by a truck on the pike has been released from the hospital. the trooper was at a construction detail near exit 17 in newton center when he was hit around 10:00 last night. police say the cruiser was hit from behind and then pushed into the median.

failing to move over for the stopped cruiser and construction detail. an amber alert that began in pennsylvania ended in boston a few hours later with the arrest of a mother who had a very sick little baby. wbz's christina hager shows us how a nurse at children's hospital helped solve the case. >> reporter: children's hospital. this is where 36-year-old mom tiffany cherry wanted her 2- month-old son quava to get medical care, and nowhere else. >> does it surprise you someone would want to come here? >> i think as a parent, you want the best care for your children. do whatever you need to. massachusetts state police sent out pictures of the car, make and model they were looking for with cherry's license plate, a nurse at children's recognized cherry. it all began in pitston, pennsylvania where a doctor trauma care.

hospital, she drove nearly five hours to boston. according to the police report, after getting the runaround, she was advised the baby had to be admitted to the hospital. the suspect stated she then took the baby back to boston. >> that was my assumption as a mother, if i felt like i needed to get the best care, this is where i would have went. >> certainly the best place for the best care in the world. my son was there last night himself. we were, we're very pleased with the care that he got there. >> reporter: as a result of all of this, cherry now faces child endangerment charges out of pittston, pennsylvania, but also had open warrants here in massachusetts she'll now have to take care of. prostitution and driving violations over the last 13 years. meantime, the department of children and families has custody of her baby boy. in boston, christina hager, wbz news. well, if you're saving for your child's college education, how would you like to save 25%? sounds pretty good, huh? northeastern says it will offer

that discount to siblings and parents of current students who decide to sign up for classes at the school, according to the globe. the discounted tuition applies to more than 100 graduate programs. western new england university family discount. even with a discount, though, college costs are soaring out of control and that is the topic of today's keller at large. >> reporter: well, good morning. here's a rhetorical question. do you care about having an affordable quality college education available for your kids or others now and in the future? of course you do. well, if so, this interview is for you this morning. our guest is in his fourth month as president of the umass system. he's former congressman and former umass lowell chancellor, marty meyen. >> good to be here.

is it okay if i call you martin or marty? >> martin works well. just don't call me mr. president. >> okay. affordability is the top of mind issue for everyone when it comes to college. you walked into this job at a time of, well, there's always stress on the state college system. >> sure. >> what is the situation now? you were able to get some extra money out of the legislature. is it enough? are we going to see tuition and fees going up again? what's the story? >> well, first of all, we have not gotten the negotiated settlements to pay union employees. the legislature was supposed to give us that. the house has. unfortunately, we haven't gotten that money yet. so we are a university that is dealing with some tough issues. >> what's the hold-up? you got stan rosenberg from amhurst sitting on top of the senate. >> right, and the senate unfortunately hasn't funded it yet. we'll wait to see what happens with negotiations with the house and the senate.

the bottom line, i think there's always going to be stress in terms of university and funding. but, you know, you look at umass. over the last three years, fees and tuition have increased an average of 1.6% a year. i can't find a university of massachusetts has increased fees less than that. so it's always a challenging time, but i can tell, you the applications to the university of massachusetts have tripled the last three or four years. so we rank highly in terms of return on investments. forbes magazine rated umass lowell 10th in the country on return on investment. i look at it as being as affordable as we can and also, we want to keep that quality high. we're a world class university, high in the rankings in terms of our national rankings and our world rankings. too. >> here we are in the heart of

say umass football is not off to a good start. 1-4, so far. three of the losses have been huge blowouts. you're locked into a schedule that at the upper echelon of college football that includes carolina, and the globe reported earlier this year that the program that back in 2011 cost the school just over 3 million is projected to cost close to 9 million this year. in light of all of this and the stress on finances that you just alluded to it, are you reassessing some of the recent decisions that have been made about umass football? >> well, the athletic department at amhurst has a plan to generate revenue to support football. we did lose to notre dame, but it was a nationally televised game that 4.5 million people viewed in on. so there are some advantages. we're going to constantly be evaluating what we're doing in football.

athletics in many ways is a front porch of a university. it's a window into a university. the umass amhurst campus has a game plan and i think we should see how it plays out. >> does the game plan include continuing to play games at gillette, which have been poorly attended? >> some, some have been attended pretty well. 30,000 employees -- sorry. 30,000 fans for a game against bc. we had close to that against unh. it's a matter of building the program. attendance needs to increase, but we also need to play more games on the campus. >> mr. president-- >> i thought you weren't going to do that. >> i'm sorry. at what cost? >> i think when there's a new analysis of how football is doing, it will be different than what the analysis was in the globe in that they are playing teams, getting revenue from that. they need to continue to build their program. winning helps. they need to find a conference

to play in, but that -- there is a game plan in place. place. time. but we don't intend to take revenue away from the academic side of the institution. the academics are more important than athletics, as important as athletics are. you look a the eisenberg school academically, that's an institution that has never been held as high up in terms of reputation status. >> we've got to take a break. when we continue, more with the president of the umass college system, marty meyen. stand by.

for the girl scout meeting... ok! for the soccer team... for the girl scout meeting... how many meetings are you having?! stop & shop just dropped prices on thousands more items. which makes the checkout lane, victory lane.

. welcome back. we're talking about marty meyen, president of the university of massachusetts. marty, you have said it's a priority for you since you took over a few months ago, to build residence halls, dorms at umass boston. why? >> because umass boston is a large university. it's the only university its size without residence halls. students who live in residence halls, they are part of academic programing within the residence halls, have a higher likelihood of graduating on time, higher likelihood of academic success. that's statistically true everywhere. the other thing that's interesting about this, think about it, it's the only university in new england that is minority/make majority. to say they don't deserve to

programing around housing is just wrong. students who go to umass boston ought to have the same opportunity that students who attend other universities do, to be part of academic programing, to study in cohorts of student, improve academic success and get them to graduate on time. >> a couple of years ago, carl selles, a student at umass, wrote an op ed and made interesting points. i think they are still relevant. >> when did he write this? >> couple of two years ago. he noted the diversity of the umass student body, by age, pace. he called the place a treasure. he wrote, quote, you're basically, by building dorms, grabbing that treasure away from the community and putting it on a silver platter for traditional college kids who want to drink, smoke weed, et cetera. what's your response to that? >> there are a thousand beds proposed.

it's consistent with mayor walsh's plan to get-- students? >> almost out of 20,000. go ahead. amount. but the number of new freshmen students to umass boston is increasing dramatically. enrollment is increasing dramatically. those students who attend umass boston ought to have a right to a high-quality academic experience. part of that academic experience is living on campus. when i got to lowell, 75% of one of the reasons why we increase academic success was we provided more academic programing and more beds on campus. it's just wrong not to have students who go to umass boston have that opportunity. >> well, look, you have one of the most important jobs in the state in terms of quality of life in the future of this state. we look forward to having you back here on a regular basis to talk about umass issues. >> sounds great. always love to come back. >> thanks. marty meyen, president of umass. now back to my colleagues for

falling back down into the 20s and 30s. so it will be rather chilly compared to what you would expect for this time of the year. let's take a look at the seven- day forecast. i'll step out of the way. here's what we've got. today, 45 after 30s and 20s this morning. and then we've got mid-40s for tomorrow after a cold start. tomorrow may be a little bit chillier than it was this morning, but then look what happens. 61 on tuesday. 64 on wednesday. 64 on thursday. the core of the work week is pretty warm. then we're going to have a cold front come through, maybe a sprinkle friday and saturday do look colder, but still dry. dry month. that's it. we may go the rest of the month >> really. >> thank you, dave. thing? >> you can keep it. a little garlic-- >> okay. >> perfect.
