Danny Gonzales saved one of his best gameplans for the Territorial Cup, neutralizing a potent run game and neutralizing their offense altogether.

Now […]

Last week, the Seattle Seahawks saw their rankings rise into the top five in the league once again after they defeated the Tennessee Titans.

For the first time since 2022, Rutgers Football has ended the regular season without reaching the six wins needed to secure bowl eligibility. The question is, what changed? What caused the Scarlet Knights to take this step back? Is it permanent? Or are these issues being dealt with as we speak? The Ills The Defense […]

It took all of one day for Will Stein to land his first major commitment as head coach of the Kentucky Wildcats. Sure, Matt Ponatoski may have been committed to the Wildcats since the summer, but once Mark Stoops and the rest of his staff were let go, many wondered if the 4-star QB would […]

Yes, we all know the game result was an unmitigated disaster. But Steve did some amazing work where the scarlet and cream of Nebraska against the yellow and black of Iowa really made the uniform colors pop in the shots below. Throw in some occasional snow and it really makes for a gallery worth checking […]
In the 72 hours since Ohio State finally snapped Michigan’s streak in The Game, three things have been living rent-free in my brain (well, four, if you count Brutus sliding through the snow to cross out the M and draw a Script Ohio).
