We’re either headed home, or headed to the Sweet 16. Rick Pitino’s Red Storm is what’s standing in the way of moving on. The game tips off at 4:15pm Jayhawk Time on CBS. At John’s is currently a 3.5 point favorite. Rock Chalk!
Once again, the rankings have switched up. Two ranked Big Ten teams were defeated (both on the road) while the conference now lays claim to the No. 1 and No. 2 rankings in the Week 9 AP Poll. There are three serious national championship contenders in the Big Ten, while the rest of it is […]
Miami Dolphins tight end Darren Waller played just 16 snaps for the Miami Dolphins on Sunday against the Cleveland Browns before exiting the game with a pectoral muscle injury. He did not return to play during that contest. On Monday afternoon, ESPN NFL insider Adam Schefter released a report stating Waller avoided major injury and […]
It certainly wasn’t a pretty effort, but the snap counts wait for no man. Offense Michael Penix Jr.: 65 Jake Matthews: 65 Matthew Bergeron: 65 Ryan Neuzil: 65 Chris Lindstrom: 65 Elijah Wilkinson: 65 Drake London: 64 Bijan Robinson: 57 Darnell Mooney: 54 Kyle Pitts: 53 Charlie Woerner: 38 David Sills V: 29 Tyler Allgeier: […]
According to a report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Kansas City Chiefs’ rookie defensive tackle Omarr Norman-Lott — who left Sunday’s 31-0 victory over the Las Vegas Raiders with a knee injury — has suffered a torn ACL. This will end his season. Taken with the 63rd overall selection in the second round of […]
The Buffalo Bills will have to make a late adjustment to their Week 8 pregame prep. Carolina Panthers starting quarterback Bryce Young is expected to miss next weekend’s game after suffering a high ankle sprain in Week 7. Veteran quarterback Andy Dalton is the next man up, and likely to see his first start of […]
The Dallas Cowboys week seven performance was one that would make Dan Quinn proud… if he wasn’t on the opposing sideline as the head coach of the Washington Commanders. The Cowboys turned back the clock in a way and won in snowballing fashion, putting up points with big plays in the passing game, capitalizing off […]
Once again, we examine the opening odds, and the Tennessee Titans are significant underdogs. At this point, it’s difficult to envision a scenario in which they would be favored in any game. About a month ago, I thought they might be favored when they play the New Orleans Saints — but I don’t think that […]
Things have been a little rough for the Edmonton Oilers, and it’s leading to diminished respect from those around the game. In the weekly NHL Power Rankings posted by Daily Faceoff, the Oilers are listed 11th among the 32 franchises in the league, a massive drop from third where the team was the week before. DFO’s…
Although I do believe that the Cubs should have plenty of reasons (and more than enough payroll space) to be aggressive in free agency this offseason, their intentions on that front aren’t particularly clear. That’s due in part to Jed Hoyer’s history of free agent passivity, as well as the new CBA negotiations and expected lockout. But there’s also the fact that the 2026 roster is already pretty full-up with potential starters: C – Carson Kelly/Miguel Amaya 1B – Michael Busch 2B – Ni...
Cari is on travel this week, but much like the Postal Service, the mailbag will continue delivering. So, leave your questions for Yours Truly (Tim) in the comments below, and I’ll have your answers this Friday: Same bat time, same bat channel!
Louisville football pulled off one of its biggest upsets in school history on Friday night, and it was a perfect blend of offensive brilliance and defensive playmaking. Jeff Brohm came in with a plan to confuse Miami with formations and personnel that he hadn’t used this season, while the defense started the game by making […]
To say the least, the Green Bay Packers’ plan of signing Nate Hobbs, paying him like a slot defender and hoping that he could develop into outside cornerback is not exactly working out so far. Just in case you thought you were hallucinating yesterday’s performance against the Arizona Cardinals, I decided to look at the […]
Everyone knew who the Arizona Cardinals needed to stop on Sunday. The best defensive player in the NFL, Micah Parson was lined up across from the Arizona Cardinals and while his stats were not eye-popping coming into the day, 2.5 sacks, one tackle for loss, and eight quarterback hits. In a single game, he basically […]
Louisville’s Nov. 1 game at Virginia Tech has been set for a 3 p.m. kickoff and will be televised on … The CW. Ain’t no curses. Here’s the full lineup for the first weekend of November in the ACC: Friday, October 31 Saturday, November 1 Games placed under a Six-Day Hold –game times and TV […]
Real Madrid were back on the training pitch at Valdebebas on Monday morning, just a day after grinding out a 1–0 win away to Getafe. The session brought encouraging news for Xabi Alonso’s side ahead of Sunday’s El Clásico at the Santiago Bernabéu: Trent made a partial return to group training, signaling another step forward […]
As we sit on the precipice of the 2025-2026 NBA season, our Player Preview series continues with the man who has Houston Rockets fans having visions of downtown parades dance in their heads, Kevin Durant. In a previous preview I stated that Reed Sheppard might be the most important Rockets player this season, as they […]
The roster features all 25 members of the gold-medal winning squad at the 2025 Worlds, plus five others.
The Portland Trail Blazers will begin their 2025-26 NBA Season on Wednesday night with an opening night tilt against the Minnesota Timberwolves. Over the summer we covered Portland selecting Yang Hansen in the 2025 NBA Draft, trading Anfernee Simons for Jrue Holiday, signing Damian Lillard after he was waived by the Milwaukee Bucks, and much […]
With the California State Athletic Commission recently voting unanimously to support a bill that would effectively gut the Ali Act, which has heavy support from the coming TKO boxing group but faced significant public backlash immediately, the Association of Professional Boxing Commissions (APBC) has stepped forward with clear opposition. The APBC say that they “vehemently […]
While most of the attention during this up-and-down 2025 season has understandably been focused on the Eagles’ confoundingly inconsistent offense, Vic Fangio’s defense has been unable to match last year’s pace. Of course, that’s understandable. The 2024 Birds defense is one of the most complete we’ve ever seen. They gave up the fewest yards of […]
Chicago Bulls basketball is two days away. Brace yourself. To celebrate opening week, the Bulls officially unveiled their 2025-26 City Edition uniforms ! Fans will have to wait until December to get an on-court look at the newest threads, but the initial photos have already won me over. I’ve been critical of some jersey designs in the past, and I’m still not sure the NBA should be forcing teams to roll out something new every year. With that being the case, I love that they kept this ye...
The hits keep on coming on the injury front as it is believed that New Orleans Saints Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy suffered a torn bicep in Sunday’s matchup against the Chicago Bears, per a report from Ian Rapoport and Mike Garafolo. An injury that which would sideline him for the rest of his seventh […]
The hits keep on coming on the injury front as it has now been confirmed by New Orleans Saints head coach Kellen Moore that Pro Bowl center Erik McCoy suffered a torn bicep in Sunday’s matchup against the Chicago Bears which will sideline him for the rest of his seventh professional campaign—one that got off […]
Tyler Bertuzzi’s first season with the Chicago Blackhawks was solid overall. Bertuzzi finished the season with 23 goals in 82 games, the second-highest goal total of his career and the first time he appeared in all 82 games. But that didn’t come without discussion about his consistency. As Scott Powers wrote for The Athletic back on March 23, Bertuzzi’s saw stretches last season where he “had zero goals and seven assists in 20 games. Before that, he had 12 goals and five assists in 20 gam...
Not much can be said positively about Juventus’ 2-0 loss to Como on Sunday. Most of the players were unsatisfactory, and manager Igor Tudor has some questions to answer as well. How did everyone fare? Here are our rankings. MICHELE DI GREGORIO – 6. Made a few good saves and was generally in control of […]
