Iowa State This past weekend against Cincinnati was the first real time we saw the full extent of the Cyclone wide receiver room as Brett Eskildsen, Chase Sowell, and Xavier Townsend combined for 19 catches, 213 yards, and a pair of touchdowns. We haven’t seen as much of Gabe Burkle and Benjamin Brahmer, and the […]
Football I don’t have much to say about the game this past Saturday. You already know how it went down, you’ve heard what the coaches and players had to say, and you’ve read Jon Morse’s thoughts on the whole debacle. The tagline for this season should be “not when it matters.” Case in point: the […]
An absolutely inexplicable pair of plays as Kansas State was in position to salt the game away utterly backfired, and the Baylor Bears defeated the Wildcats 35-34 at McLane Stadium on a final-minute 53-yard field goal by Connor Hawkins followed by a blocked field goal attempt by Luis Rodriguez The loss overshadowed what had been […]
Your Kansas State Wildcats finally looked like a competitive football team in 2025 during their 34-20 win over UCF in Manhattan last weekend. It certainly wasn’t perfect, and they still have a ways to go to get back on track for preseason goals, but it was a significant step in the correct direction. Now the […]
I know you have all seen Rocky IV. It’s one of the finest films ever made, a cinematic masterpiece if you will, so why wouldn’t you have? Last week’s picks reminded me a lot of Rocky IV. Less than one Continue reading Week Five College/NFL Picks: BCole Looks to Avoid Balboa-like Beatdown →

Hello there! I recognize that this weekly rant is a bit late, so to the four of you reading, I apologize for my tardiness. The reason behind this column’s latency is hopefully a good one, as I spent the weekend in Colorado, visiting a longtime friend from my college days in Iowa, and watching the […]
After allowing 118 points over the last two weeks, Washington State finally put things together defensively to hold the Colorado State Rams out of the end zone for a refreshing 20-3 win on the road. Heading into the 2025 season, Jimmy Rogers wanted to bring over his defensive, run-first identity to the Palouse. While WSU […]
Four games into the season may not be quite enough to get a full picture of the new WSU Cougars, but it’s a good enough sample size. There are more questions than answers thus far, and the few answers we have aren’t pretty. Through the season’s first two games, it looked like, generally speaking, WSU […]
Have you ever hosted a house-warming party where the guests turn foul? I mean, they’re invited. Shit, you invited them. But they correct you every turn, tell you what furniture should go where, and worse yet… it turns out they’re Continue reading Week Four College/NFL Picks: DRealEmcee Joins an Increasingly Rude List of Houseguests →
Perfection. When we think of perfection, we think of things like the Sistine Chapel, the first two Godfather movies, Nolan Ryan’s fastball or the first 37 fights of Mike Tyson’s career. We fruitlessly chase perfection, hoping just to be good Continue reading Week Three College/NFL Picks: Milhouse’s Extremely Level Playing Field →

Only last year, I wrote about Continue reading If you think things are bad now, Gator Football fans, wait until Jon Gruden becomes your next head coach. →
I turned on my stove the other day. It didn’t heat up. I clicked on the ignition to my Hyundai. It didn’t start. I tried to log on to my website to complain to you about all of this. My Continue reading Week Two College/NFL picks: Digging out of the hole with J-Dub →
