NC State’s search for six wins resumes in Pittsburgh on Saturday, and not surprisingly, the Wolfpack head into the matchup as a solid underdog. The task may be a little more difficult than the seven-point Vegas line paints it, as SP+ has the Panthers 12 points better. Pittsburgh is 5-2 on the season and coming […]

Old school stream of consciousness. Let’s roll. —I know we’ve all spent solid chunks of our lives making fun of Kentucky fans for doing this, but let’s be honest about something: For a portion of our fan base, Friday night’s game determined whether or not it was a basketball season in their eyes. These people […]

Last week’s loss to Minnesota was brutal for all of the wrong reasons. Nebraska fans looking for someone to blame have decided that their target for their blame has the last name Raiola.

That was the kind of complementary football that Kyle Shanahan always references. The offense ran the ball 39 times. The defense held the opposition to under 300 yards. And Eddy Pineiro was 2-for-2, and good from 55. There were plenty of performances that stood out on Sunday Night Football. Let’s talk about them. Winners Christian […]

What a win. Hopefully the Notre Dame Fighting Irish have the chance to continue one of the greatest rivalries in college athletics with the USC Trojans after this season. But for now, the Irish came out on top in the last scheduled game for now. What a day it was with a lot of weather, […]

The Buckeyes visited Camp Randall Stadium in Madison, Wisconsin to take on the Badgers on Saturday afternoon. It was the team’s second straight road contest after last week’s win at Illinois and a chance to go into the bye week in a good spot. Ohio State passed the test, winning 34-0, but I think it’s […]

When your team struggles through a season, it can be easy to get caught up in that at the expense of enjoying some of the fun things happening elsewhere in the sport. That’s why I’m really hoping Carolina fans are able to zoom out from the mess unfolding in Chapel Hill enough to recognize that […]

So I was away at a family event and watched exactly two plays of Saturday’s loss to Pittsburgh. I’ve glanced at the comments here on online and frankly I’m not surprised. I’ve seen a lot of “Fran Brown guys” who suddenly are wavering on the Orange HC. For a few, it’s the game management of […]
