POCATELLO, Idaho — Colston Loveland’s jersey was retired here Saturday. No, not his Bears No. 84. Not his Michigan No. 18. Not his Gooding High School No. 5. Honored on this day was the No. 80 jersey he wore when he dominated the annual Idaho All-State Game for eighth-graders in 2017.

Higher ceiling: Bears quarterback Caleb Williams or Cubs center fielder Pete Crow-Armstrong? Boy, we could chew on that one for a while. Each is 23. Crow-Armstrong has exploded as a star this season, an All-Star shoo-in and the subject of some MVP talk. Williams hasn’t had his second go-round as a pro yet, but Bears fans can hardly wait for what they’re expecting to be a huge step forward.

Illinois football coach Bret Bielema is going backward. Looking younger. Feeling so much better. Bielema, 55, told the Sun-Times this week he’s down 75 pounds since the Citrus Bowl upset of South Carolina. He got home from that New Year’s Eve game, lugged his daughters’ suitcases — and himself — up a flight of stairs and thought, “Whoa.”“I gotta do something here,” he admitted that day. Bielema has stopped eating after 5 p.m. He’s taking walks and doing cardio twice a day.

So, about the Brewers and the Cubs …Make that the Cubs and the Brewers. The order has been reversed. The tables have turned. South sits above North again in this sweet little rivalry, as it should most of the time, if not always.

Pete Crow-Armstrong? Check. Kyle Tucker? Check. Anyone else from the Cubs going to make the All-Star team this season? At least a few other guys — Seiya Suzuki, Nico Hoerner, Carson Kelly — have been making cases for themselves. In this week’s “Polling Place,” your home for Sun-Times sports polls on the social platform X, we asked how many Cubs will get to Atlanta for the Midsummer Classic.

RT @suntimes_sports: The Sun-Times Sports cover, featuring the Cubs, who appear to be taking back the North — er, Central — from the Brewer…

"We definitely should win the division," one Cub said, "but we have to go out and play the games." If the Cubs are taking back the Central, this Brewers series is a fine time to make it clear: https://t.co/3It15ByE5q
