The three biggest ACC football questions of the week. Here we go for Week 14. Does Georgia Tech have a shot against Georgia? No… not a realistic one. If Georgia Tech beats Georgia, it would require things we’ve very rarely seen this season all coming together at once. Georgia Tech would need the 2nd half … Continue reading »
Last week didn’t have a bevy of crazy upsets in the Big 10, but it did have some surprising results. Wisconsin, who looked very much like a lame duck team for most of the year, spanked #21 Illinois. Penn St hammered Nebraska, 37-10. Michigan St put up a good fight on the road against Iowa, […]
The Missouri Tigers fell to 7-4 (3-4 SEC) on the season after a 17-6 loss to Oklahoma and dropped out of the Top 25 rankings. If Mizzou can beat Arkansas in their regular season finale on Saturday and win their bowl game, there’s still a chance that Missouri can finish the year at the backend […]
Happy Thanksgiving from all of us here at Hammer and Rails, and an even happier black and old gold Friday tomorrow! If you’re a Purdue fan, you’re plate is going to be full with action tomorrow as Purdue basketball gets the day kicked off with a noon tip-off before the entree of the night, a […]
Letters… we get letters… we get stacks and stacks of letters… Question from Wonderhill: A friend of mine told me a story about him going on a dream vacation, one he’d saved up for and anticipated for a long time. He got there, and while leaning on the balcony rail, looking at the beautiful view, […]
It’s Thanksgiving in the U.S.! Most people are gathered around tables, inhaling carbs from potatoes and pie, trying to avoid awkward conversations around the family table while side-eyeing football games on the TV. What a holiday! In case the festivities are leaving you flat, we’re posting a series of questions related to the Portland Trail […]
After looking dead in the water, the Wisconsin Badgers have a chance at five wins and a possible (but unlikely) bowl appearance with a win over the Minnesota Gophers this weekend. The Badgers have strung together two wins over ranked opponents in the month of November, including their most complete victory last Saturday over the […]
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours, Buckeye Nation. Even with all eyes locked on The Game and that final business trip to Ann Arbor, Ohio State kept its foot on the gas on the recruiting trail. And as has been the case all month, Wednesday delivered yet another reason for the Buckeyes to be thankful. […]
Arizona fans have a lot of expectations for their football team, but topping the list is always beating ASU. Win the Territorial Cup and it doesn’t matter what happened the rest of the season. The Wildcats have won the Duel in the Desert 51 times since 1899, with ASU winning 46 times and one tie […]
Man, that one hurt. We had everything laid out in front of us, and we folded like a lawn chair. Seasons with a path this clear to the ACC Championship or even the CFP don’t come around often, and we completely let it slip through our fingers. This game against Pitt was a chance to […]
In the first quarter of the Detroit Lions’ Thanksgiving Day game against the Green Bay Packers, All-Pro wide receiver Amon-Ra St. Brown suffered a lower-body injury after getting rolled up on during a Jahmyr Gibbs rushing play. St. Brown was down for a little bit before walking off under his own power with a limp. […]
Penn State. Florida. LSU. Auburn. All fine programs with plenty of history and, most importantly in this day and age, money. Any one of these would’ve made a fine next stop in the career path of Eli Drinkwitz. And maybe one day one of them will. For the time being, though Mizzou and Eli Drinkwitz […]

LINCOLN, NE PUBLIC SERVICE ANNOUNCEMENT FOR 11/27/25 Obi-wan Kenobi had no idea when he was informing Luke of the dangers of Mos Eisley spaceport that he had also created the perfect way of describing Iowa City as well as the Hawkeye fan denizens who infest the far reaches of their state. Please attempt to treat […]
Everybody knows that one of the best parts of being a sports fan is debating and dissecting the most (and least) important questions in the sporting world with your friends. So, we’re bringing that to the pages of LGHL with our favorite head-to-head column: You’re Nuts. In You’re Nuts, two LGHL staff members will take […]
The Ducks men play this morning, and hope that the third time is a charm – and a win – at the Player’s Era Festival against Creighton. But to do that, they’ll have to actually play defense, which was conspicuously missing in their games against Auburn and San Diego State. When: Today, 11:00 am PT […]
The Wisconsin Badgers had their senior day last weekend when they hosted the Illinois Fighting Illini, as all of their seniors got the chance to be honored and walk ahead of the game.

Hello? Is anybody there? Happy Thanksgiving to you, yours, and those you care about. Even the Michigan fans. This will also serve as your open thread for Thanksgiving Day’s football. Maybe basketball if I don’t have time to put up a thread for that. Who’s to say? It wasn’t ideal to learn yesterday, after we […]

Zach Lujan’s offense scored its most points ever […]
