The Elite Nine sacks. After failing to record a sack in either of their last two games, the Gophers’ pass rush looked like a caged […]
Ever since Connor McDavid announced his two-year contract extension worth just $12.5 million per season, social media has been ablaze with discussion on how the Oilers will spend the extra cap space at their disposal this summer. Last week, amidst the Buffalo Sabres’ disastrous start, names like Alex Tuch and Tage Thompson started to pop…
Since it’s the offseason, it’s time to resume my photo/video historical sleuthing series. Before I begin, this is a call for you to send me photos or videos you’ve found that you think I could sleuth for you. Hopefully these are finds that I haven’t previously sleuthed. Or maybe you have personal photos from Wrigley […]

How to watch: Sat, 10/18 , 4:00PM/EST – FOX Texas Tech’s defense doesn’t get the same national spotlight as the SEC or Big Ten powerhouses, but the Red Raiders boast one of the more intriguing edge duos in the country David Bailey and Romello Height.

If you went to bed at a reasonable hour last night, you probably missed most of Carolina’s 21-18 loss to Cal – in which case, you didn’t miss much. I’ll hand it to Belichick and Co., though: the Tar Heels looked better than I thought they would after schlepping across the country for a game […]
It’s mid-October, which means it’s time to start looking towards the 2026 baseball season! Wait, what? NC State released their 2026 schedule on Friday afternoon. Here are some quick thoughts:
For the second straight year, the Philadelphia Phillies won the National League East with a win total in the mid-90s. And for the second straight year, the season ended with a 3-1 defeat to a lower-seeded team in the NLDS. It isn’t a revelation to say that regular season baseball is a different animal than […]
The captain joins the team for the first time since offseason hip surgery.
After 15 Major League seasons, Martin Maldonado is retiring from baseball. The 39-year-old catcher made the official announcement today via his Instagram page, thanking his family, the fans, teammates, coaches, and many others who helped him live his dream. “Baseball, I was just four years old when I fell in love with you,” Maldonado said…
The Buffalo Sabres are still the punchline of the NHL, and it could be time to move one of their big three defencemen. The Sabres are off to a 1-3-0 start this year and could quickly become the first team to have a fire sale this year. Not only on the ice, but there's also a chance both GM and head coach get replaced at some point, which is wild to think considering the circus that's been going on around the organization for the last few years. Recently, Daily Faceoff's Anthony Di Marco poised...
The Louisville Cardinals came into Hard Rock Stadium and beat the Miami Hurricanes 24-21 on Friday night. Miami’s home winning streak and undefeated season have now gone up in smoke. The Cards started the game off with 14 straight points and did just enough to hold the lead. The Canyonero Keys to Victory theme was […]
Get Cole Caufield into the Olympics is what seems to be on the top of Lane Hutson's mind. The two Montreal Canadiens are certainly expected to be in the mix for the Olympic roster and if it was up to Hutson, Caufield would be a lock, and he'd quickly become someone who the team would rely on heavily to score in big moments. "I think we saw it when (Team USA) went to OT versus Canada. They need someone to score, and in those big moments, that's something (Caufield) can bring," Hutson said...
The Blue Jays’ 6-2 loss to the Mariners in Game 5 of the ALCS puts the Jays down 3-2 in the series, and in must-win mode heading into Game 6 in Toronto on Sunday. With such a critical game coming up, the Jays are also facing an injury question to one of their best hitters,…

It was reported that the timetable for his recovery and return is 4-6 weeks. #GoHabsGo say defenseman Kaiden Guhle will miss 4-6 weeks with a lower-body injury. — Frank Seravalli (@frank_seravalli) October 18, 2025 Guhle played just 16 minutes in the Canadiens' fifth game of the season, a 3-2 overtime win against the Nashville Predators. He has logged at least 20 m...
First of all, let’s look at the lone goal from the 1-0 loss to Providence that Marquette men’s soccer suffered on Friday night in Rhode Island. I don’t know if there was anything that Marquette keeper Cameron Simpson was going to do about that one, and that’s how it goes sometimes, tip of the cap […]
The Sounders close out their regular season with a road trip to the Big Apple.
A look at the projected lineups and pre-game interviews.
Eight games into the regular season, the Dodgers were riding at their highest, winning eight in a row with seemingly no end in sight. Then, reality hit; the Dodgers are not a perfect team despite the talent they have on paper. Blowup losses at home by double digits, sweeps suffered at the hands of much […]
It’s Week 7 and the New Orleans Saints (1-5) are on the road in the Windy City to take on the Chicago Bears (3-2). Last week, we saw the Saints fall at home to the New England Patriots in another well fought game that while they made their mistakes, was lost by just one score. […]

Yes, Vanderbilt is favored to beat LSU, which is worrisome not because we don’t want Vanderbilt to get respect but because… well, we know how things usually go when we have expectations for Vanderbilt football. Maybe this time is different? Have fun, expect to win.
The Portland Trail Blazers are deeper than they’ve been in years. That depth arguably extends to their two-way contracted players, and while Sidy Cissoko and Caleb Love will spend a good deal of time with the Rip City Remix this season, the pair appear to be ready to contribute with the big club when required. […]

It’s in the headline, but there was nothing redeemable about Nebraska’s 24-6 loss to Minnesota. There are times I find myself in the role of writing how it wasn’t as bad as it appeared. You know, something like “if they only had gotten off the field on that third down” or “if you take away […]
