7pm CT SECN+. Game One was a 14-2 run rule victory in the 7th. Thank you Dores, may we please have another. First, mea culpa. I had thought I remembered to schedule yesterday’s game thread, but must have hit the wrong button or something. As I had work and meetings all day, followed by a […]
It was a game of runs. Both teams would go stretches without scoring. Louisville started the game 9 of 16 and finished the half 2 of 11 from the field. North Carolina took the lead in the third quarter but then the Cardinal defense seemed to lock in. Louisville took a 45-40 lead at the […]
Georgia Tech’s nightmare men’s basketball season is over. They played hard in a 79-76 loss to NCAA-bound Clemson, but yet again, the Jackets, in games they actually play reasonably well in, faded in the second half. Up 10 points in the second, Clemson outscored Georgia Tech by 13 the rest of the way. The Jackets … Continue reading »
Under a bright blue sky and beautiful sunshine, the setting for today’s game between our Nebraska Cornhuskers and the Spartans from Michigan State couldn’t be any more perfect other than the fact that it was a chilly 47-degrees at first pitch. The cool temps seemed to have an effect on the bats of both teams […]
Omar Marmoush scored twice as Manchester City defeated Newcastle United 3–1 at St James’ Park to reach the FA Cup quarter-finals after overturning an early deficit.
For 20 minutes, Arizona State threatened to spoil the Senior Night festivities at Hilton Coliseum. Carrying a 41-37 lead into the locker room, the Sun Devils looked poised to play spoiler. But early in the second half, the “Hilton Magic” didn’t just appear—it overwhelmed. Roughly two minutes into the second half, the Cyclones ignited a […]
The rematch we’ve been waiting for is here. Or maybe I should say, the rematch that the Michigan Wolverines have definitely been waiting for is here. After below-average performances up and down the roster — most notably from potential Big Ten Player of the Year Olivia Olson and fellow sophomore standout Syla Swords — in […]
The 2027 recruiting class is in full swing, with a few players already setting official visit dates for the early summer. So far, just like in our late February recruiting update, Rutgers only has one commitment from the 2027 class, Tight End Sydney Padilla from West Orange High School. They are working towards adding to that list […]
Clemson capped the regular season with a 79–76 Senior Day win over Georgia Tech at Littlejohn Coliseum, finishing 22–9 overall and 12–6 in ACC play to secure the No. 5 seed in the conference tournament.

The Irish found themselves with a do-or-die game this afternoon against one of the two worst teams in the conference to keep their ACC tournament hopes alive. Boston College is woeful, and it would not have been surprising at all for the Irish to pull this off, even on BC’s Senior Day. However, absolutely nobody […]
The in-state recruits keep piling on for the Wisconsin Badgers, who landed a commitment from 2027 three-star edge rusher Isaac Miller, he announced on Friday.

On Saturday afternoon, Boston College picked up their fourth ACC win of the season, 77-69, over Notre Dame. It was a rough start for both teams.

K-State faces the Jayhawks in Lawrence today. It’s senior day, and the last game of the regular season. Hopefully Kansas can shake off their rough recent play and head into the postseason on a high note. The game is at 1pm Jayhawk Time on CBS. Rock Chalk!

Bristol, Connecticut native Donovan Clingan was a centerpiece of two national championship teams as a UConn Husky. He was the nation’s best backup big man in 2023 and a two-way destroyer on the 2024 title team. The 7-foot-2 center averaged 13 points, 7.4 rebounds, and 2.5 blocks per game in his last college season before […]
Coming into the 2025 NFL season, it seemed like the Buffalo Bills had some pretty great depth at cornerback. They had a veteran who was a good placeholder thanks to his knowledge of the defensive system. They had an elite, young player who had earned a big second contract. They had a former undrafted free […]
[Note – I’m kinda using “wishbone” and “triple option” interchangeably here. These can be distinct, but I get the idea a lot of people mush them together into a single concept. Give me some latitude. Ha! – Jon] Sometime in the late 1980s, one of the most dominant systems in college football history quietly disappeared. […]

It’s not an exaggeration to say that Saturday night’s game between Ohio State (19-11, 11-8) and Indiana (18-12, 9-10) is the biggest game of the Jake Diebler era. Seeking out their 20th win of the year and 12th Big Ten win, the Buckeyes could all but lock up their first NCAA Tournament bid since 2022 […]
The last time a Big Ten team ranked No. 5 or lower won a conference tournament was 2011, when Ohio State women’s basketball head coach Jim Foster led the Buckeyes over the No. 2 Penn State Nittany Lions. Those were different days. The Big Ten had 11 teams, the Penn State Nittany Lions were near […]
The WSU Board of Regents yesterday voted 8-1 to grant WSU Athletics $20 million in university operating funds to help fill a projected budget shortfall. “This action reflects the Board’s recognition that a strong Athletics program is one of the main drivers of student recruitment, retention, and institutional pride,” President Betsy Cantwell said in a […]
