There’s just one game to break down this week, so it’s time for an extra-deep over-analysis of Northwestern’s 70-47 win over Mercyhurst to open their season. On the surface, this was an ugly one. NU shot just 37% from the field, 26% from three and missed 11 free throws. The only ‘Cats player who stood […]
The ‘Cats are back in action this weekend.

Once again this week I interview a fellow SB Nation blogger over to our side of the internet to talk about an upcoming matchup. This time it’s Matt Tamanini from Land Grant Holy Land who covers, you guessed it, the Ohio State Buckeyes. He is the co-managing editor over there and was kind enough to […]
Game notes Setting the scene Friday night sets up a perfect showcase for perennial American Conference contenders. Memphis rattled off three-straight American Championship appearances from 2017-19, and Tulane currently rides its own three-game streak from 2022-24. As one expects when the conference releases the schedule each year, this matchup matters significantly to the league’s title […]

Sheesh. That first CFP rankings show was extra rough for the ACC. Georgia Tech is ranked #17 after suffering their first loss last week.

In 1996, the powers that govern college football implemented a new, exciting innovation to the game we all love: overtime. After decades of slogging through the muck of regular season ties and three-column records, we finally had a way to determine a winner, even in the case of two moribund teams struggling to get out […]

This is where we follow our resident weather-themed duo in rookie receivers Jayden Higgins and Jaylin Noel, both out of Iowa State (hence, the “Cyclone” twins). As always, there will be analysis, projections, commentary, and relevant updates that happen in real time. Week 9 Cyclones Tracker: ————————————- […]
Yeah, we’re still doing this. College football honestly just feels like a chore right now. Iowa State’s season is over. At this point, we just need to pick up a 6th win somewhere. With that said, college basketball did start this week. So before we get into football bets, I do have a few thoughts […]
I’m sure I’ve said this before, but I’m no fan of Missouri and Texas A&M being connected as rivals as the league moves to a 9 game schedule. I just have no real feeling about Texas A&M in any way. When Missouri has beaten the Aggies, I’ve enjoyed it but only as much as I […]
Question number one for the 2025 Syracuse football season has been: who is going to be under center? Over the summer, there was spirited discussion over who would lead the Orange against Tennessee when their season kicked off in Atlanta. In the middle of the UConn game, the talk centered on potentially replacing Steve Angeli. […]

I don’t know about you guys, but to me it seems our commentariot is as unmotivated this week as the football team reportedly was this week during practice. Regardless, we still prevail – and no matter what happens, we’ll all still win in the tailgating lots (and we’re only one week out of wrestling season!). […]
The No. 15 Alabama Crimson Tide have played just one game — a paycheck beating of the North Dakota Fighting Hawks in the Mausoleum. But, it was not exactly a thing of aesthetic beauty. The Tide, playing with0ut Keitenn Bristow and 75% of its backcourt (including its best perimeter shooters), did manage to cobble together […]
What Used to be the Marquis Matchup in the ACC has Become…Something Else. Sometimes I really hate being right. I had Duke winning close in my preview, and that is certainly what we saw happen (even closer than I thought!). Clemson’s defensive failings reared their ugly head time and time again. Now Clemson fans just […]
