Earlier today, the Giants made waves when it was reported that the club is “closing in on hiring” University of Tennessee coach Tony Vitello as their next manager. While no deal is in place at this point, the news still came as a surprise. That’s not only because Vitello has no experience in professional baseball but…
The Seattle Seahawks secondary has been fighting an uphill battle since Week 2. It’s not been smooth sailing in the attempt to get even half of the original starting defensive backs on the field. Saturday afternoon the Seahawks released their final injury report ahead of the late Monday Night matchup with the Houston Texans. Derick […]
The Wisconsin Badgers were blown out in a 34-0 loss to the Ohio State Buckeyes on Saturday, having no answers from the jump in yet another disappointing game. It marks Wisconsin’s fifth straight loss and ninth straight in conference play dating back to last season, and is the second-straight scoreless outing for the Badgers. The […]
Vibes are at an all-time low right now. Like, Mark Stone trade levels of low. It's that bad.
Dan Wilson and the Mariners announced at a pregame conference on Saturday that Logan Gilbert will take the mound for Game 6 of the ALCS. The Blue Jays will also run back their Game 2 starter, starting rookie Trey Yesavage. Gilbert didn’t have a strong outing against the Blue Jays in Game 2, getting bailed […]
When the season started Purdue fans looked at this Northwestern game as a potential win. The Wildcats were not held in high esteem and if a really, really bad Purdue team could take them to overtime last season when surely a better Purdue team couldpotentially get a win in 2025. As we saw, that was […]
Well, that was ugly. On Saturday afternoon, the Edmonton Oilers faced off against the New Jersey Devils, falling 5-3 to move their record to 2-2-1. Let’s take a look at what went on in this game. The two teams remained scoreless after the first period, but it was the Devils who opened the scoring just…
Don't go to the bullpen, Leafs.

Live from Delaware, it’s Saturday Night! I, NAS204PSU, am here at BTSC to bring you this Saturday Night Open Thread (aka SNOT). We’re 0-7 on the road in AFCN Thursday night games. Long week till our next game. How is the season going: 4-2 and first in AFC North… feels different after that loss though. […]
Every week, SB Nation tracks fan confidence for each NFL team, and unsurprisingly, the confidence of Baltimore Ravens fans has plummeted this year. Our pre-Week 1 Ravens Reacts survey indicated that 95% of fans were confident in the team direction. By Week 4, that number dropped to 11%, and it has not risen above 13% […]
A 1-0 victory over Osasuna made it five home wins in a row for Atlético Madrid, but coach Diego Simeone gave the credit to one man in particular in his post-match press conference on Saturday night. Speaking in praise of his goalkeeper Jan Oblak, who made a superb save late on, the coach said “he’s […]
Maryland football is in Pasadena for an afternoon contest with red-hot UCLA at Rose Bowl Stadium. A win moves the Terps one win away from clinching a bowl game appearance — a loss moves them to a three-game losing streak. A pivotal game is ahead for Maryland. Kickoff is set for 7 p.m. ET/4 p.m. […]
It would be fair to assume that, after declaring Friday’s preseason finale as a dress rehearsal, the starting lineup in that contest would be the starting lineup when the regular season opens. To that point, though, the lineup selected against the Kings was certainly surprising. The inclusion of Gabe Vincent was not one anyone expected, […]
The NFL trade deadline is on Tuesday, November 4, at 3:00 p.m. CT, and earlier this week, we asked Chicago Bears fans if they want the Bears to buy, sell, or stand pat. Chicago’s three games before the deadline are the (1-5) New Orleans Saints this Sunday, the (1-5) Baltimore Ravens, and the (3-4) Cincinnati […]
After a long offseason buzzing with excitement, we’re finally on the verge of the 2025-26 NBA season. With opening night just days away, it’s only fair to take a Knicks-centric look at how things are shaping up in the East ahead of the year. And believe your eyes and ears; the Knicks might have a […]
Let me be totally honest with everyone here: after that first half, I almost talked myself into not watching the second. 26% ball possession and xG of exactly 0.00 is absolutely not what you want to see from your team, no matter the opponent. But because I’m a deluded BVB fan, I decided to strap […]
Arizona rallied from down 14 points entering the fourth quarter to tie it on Saturday at Houston, only to lose on a last-second field goal. It was the second straight loss for the Wildcats that came down to the end, following last week’s double-OT home defeat to unbeaten BYU. No room for moral victories, UA […]
The Seattle Kraken 's new bottom-six forward Freddy Gaudreau will be lost to the team for four-to-six weeks in a tough injury break. An update on #SeaKraken forward Freddy Gaudreau: pic.twitter.com/FRBVwYn2Wu — Seattle Kraken (@SeattleKraken) October 18, 2025 Gaudreau suffered an upper-body injury in Thursday night's shootout loss to the Ottawa Senators. He went awkwardly into the boards after taking a hit in the second period and didn't return. The 32-year-old center w...
Get ready to lose some sleep tonight again, it’s gameday. The road trip continues tonight where the Carolina Hurricanes travel to take on the Los Angeles Kings at 9 PM. Similar to last game, if you are in the Carolina area, you can catch the game on FanDuel Sports Network with pregame starting around 30 […]
It was far from pretty, but Atlético Madrid ground out a 1-0 victory over a rigid CA Osasuna on Saturday night, which takes their winning run at home to five matches. In front of a late night crowd at Estadio Riyadh Air Metropolitano, a post-international break Atlético looked to have found an early way through […]
Coming out of the latest international break, Roma found themselves in an unusual position: at the top of the table. While Gian Piero Gasperini’s attack struggled mightily through the first six rounds of play, thanks to a suffocating defense, the Giallorossi were riding high, sharing the league lead with Antonio Conte’s Napoli side. After seeing […]
It’s nearly game time in Iowa City as the Hawkeyes prepare to host the Penn State Nittany Lions! After starting the year ranked #2 nationally, Penn State has lost their last three games in the Big Ten, culminating with a 22-21 loss to Northwestern a week ago. That loss proved the most costly with the […]
The Washington Wizards announced that they waived guard Kadary Richmond guard Alondra Williams earlier today. The move isn’t particularly surprising because Richmond only played once in the preseason for just under six minutes. Williams also played only one game and had just under 12 minutes of action. The two were previously on Exhibit 10 contracts.
It’s the day before Week 7 in the NFL officially gets underway in earnest, and that means it’s also time to see who our crew of learned pro football blowhards are picking in this week’s action around the league. We’ve got our picks locked and loaded for this week, so let’s get to it. First, […]
