Grab some wings and settle in for a Gopher game before THE game.
Players and coaches obviously don’t like rooting for any team to win the Super Bowl besides their own team. But for 30 teams, they have no other choice but to accept that a team that isn’t theirs is going to win the Super Bowl. The Seahawks or the Patriots. Jared Verse spoke for many Rams […]
In anticipation the home team handed out “Takedown” posters intending for the Wolverine fans to raise them in the air for each takedown by the home team.

Happy Super Bowl Sunday Husky fans. With the 2026 class in the rear view mirror the Husky coaches are laser focused on getting the team ready for the 2026 season but they are also putting in a lot of leg work to get the 2027 class put together. Recently a couple of Husky targets narrowed […]
Tonight the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks will square off in Super Bowl LX in Santa Clara.

It’s pretty clear this is a do-or-die season for No. 2 UCLA. They entered the year highly-ranked and have remained near the top the entire season. Last year, they made their first Final Four appearance in program history, and with Lauren Betts back and playing in her senior season, this is the moment for the […]
It’s time. Drake Maye, the talent Mack Brown somehow never coached to 10 or more wins, plays in a Super Bowl in only his second pro season. Maye’s Patriots face Seattle’s league-leading defense, #1 against the run and #2 against the pass based on efficiency metrics. #1 overall. Seattle lost three games this season, one […]
Depending on what Cleveland does with Joel Bitonio and Wyatt Teller this offseason, Andrew Berry and Co. could be heading into the 2026 NFL Draft with offensive guard as a top need. One of the best options available to the Browns could be Texas A&M OG Chase Bisontis, who has been a consistent fixture amongst […]
HEMPSTEAD, N.Y. – Hofstra Pride head coach Craig “Speedy” Claxton started his team’s postgame press conference on Saturday with a wide smile and simple, six-word reminder. “It is great to be healthy,” he said.

There isn’t a moment in recent times where Chelsea Women most needed a boost like today’s. Facing Tottenham at their big stage is momentous on its own.

Lose a couple in a row to teams below you … then come up with a big win over a team above you. No. 22 Maryland’s losses to No. 2 UCLA and No. 10 Iowa may have started their four-game losing streak, but the next two to No. 24 Washington and unranked Oregon hurt more […]
Welcome to Super Bowl Sunday, which marks the final game of the NFL’s 2025 season.

What a night at Rupp Arena. Seriously, what a night. That’s a night and game Big Blue Nation is going to remember for a long time.

You may want to re-read the last paragraph of Lucas’ game preview for this game because that’s what the Spartans did tonight. After a few days of internal debate, Tom Izzo decided to start Jeremy Fears after the Michigan State floor general’s style of play was questioned in the last two games. This probably didn’t […]
