Rutgers football is set to kick off against Maryland at 2:30 pm on Saturday at home. With the Scarlet Knights’ small hopes of making a bowl game hanging in the balance, this game is as must-win as it can get. The Terrapins (4-4) aren’t going to back down from the challenge, as they too are […]
Now in her 10th season at the helm, JR Payne leads the Colorado Buffaloes with eyes set on the NCAA Tournament. After three straight trips to March Madness, including back-to-back Sweet Sixteen appearances in 2023 and 2024, the Buffs failed to reach the Big Dance last year. They did well to win 21 games, but […]
It was 2018 when Josh Paschal noticed a spot on the bottom of his foot. Entering his second season playing for Kentucky, he didn’t think much of it. A blood blister, perhaps. But his athletic trainer wasn’t convinced. A trip to the podiatrist led to a trip to the dermatologist. A biopsy would reveal the […]
The 6-2 Notre Dame Fighting Irish are currently ranked #10 in the college football playoff rankings, and are eyeing not just a place at the table — but ownership of the table as well (to host a playoff game). This week Notre Dame plays host to wookie-life-debt-scheduling-partner, Navy. The Middies could have been useful this […]
Tuesday night saw Arsenal notch their eighth straight clean sheet across all competitions. In blanking Slavia Praha on the Gunners matched 1889 Preston and 1920 Liverpool as the only English clubs to make a run of no goals conceded in eight consecutive matches. A record that is over a century old has now been matched. […] The post Arsenal FC Starting Lineup Prediction at Sunderland appeared first on The Sports Bank .
Just over a month ago, I decided to answer the question about home field advantage in the Mountain West Conference. After four articles looking at the data, I wish all my ideas turned into a month’s worth of writing, we now have a definitive list of which MWC stadiums have the biggest home field advantage. […]
The Syracuse Orange (3-6, 1-5) head on the road to face the #18 Miami Hurricanes (6-2, 2-2) in a matchup where both teams are looking to break losing streaks. Kickoff is at 3:30 on ESPN and here’s what we’ll be watching for in this one: Kevin: Gameplan for Bain Ruben Bain might be the best […]
The North Carolina Tar Heels’ defense has kept the sky from falling, and, last week, carried the team to its first conference win of the season. Carolina is a touchdown favorite against Stanford, the first time this season the Heels are favored against a Power 4 team. Here are a few things to watch as […]

Former Western Michigan defensive lineman Marshawn Kneeland, who had been a second-round selection in the 2024 NFL Draft by the Dallas Cowboys, passed away late Wednesday evening, per multiple sources. He was 24 years old. The Texas Department of Public Safety confirmed on Thursday morning Kneeland died of a single, self-inflicted gunshot wound after a […]

The Badgers are coming off their second and final bye week of the season. They needed it. While the defense showed up in a […]
We’re living in a weird world. Headed into the Colorado Buffaloes’ game against the West Virginia Mountaineers on Saturday morning, nobody knows who is actually calling offensive plays for the Buffs. Following CU’s last two games, nearly the entire fanbase was clamoring for a massive change in the offense, specifically in playcalling. The Buffs have […]
For better or worse, there are still games to be played this football season and the Frank Wilson-led Tigers of LSU are off to Tuscaloosa to take on the #4 ranked Alabama Crimson Tide. While I don’t much care for Alabama, I do very much enjoy talking to my very good friend Brent Taylor from […]
After 399 days, Kentucky football finally broke its SEC winless streak by beating the Auburn Tigers and putting the final nail in Hugh Freeze’s tenure in Auburn. Can they bring another streak, their home SEC losing record? Sitting with a 3-5 record, a bowl game is still on the table for the Wildcats, and the […]
Another wild weekend flipped the ACC upside down. Miami and Georgia Tech both stumbled, Virginia survived again, and Louisville suddenly looks like the most balanced team in the league. With five one-loss teams behind the Cavaliers, the race to Charlotte feels tighter than ever. 17. Boston College (1-8, 0-5 ACC)The Eagles at least made things […]
Another week without a win has come and gone for Syracuse Orange football. Leading 7-3 after the first quarter, SU’s offense came to a screeching halt in an eventual 27-10 loss to Chapel Bill and the North Carolina Tar Heels. While the lack of a true quarterback remains a glaring issue for Fran Brown, perhaps an even bigger problem is the […]
The Missouri Tigers are in win-out mode in order to have any chance at the College Football Playoff. Coming off the bye week, Mizzou will host undefeated and No. 3 Texas A&M with true freshman quarterback Matt Zollers leading the way. Kick-off on Saturday afternoon in Columbia is set for 2:30 p.m. CST on ABC […]
The Ducks have completed 8 of their 12 regular season games, 7 against FBS competition (insert your own jokes about the OSU’s here…). After the first five games I broke down performance metrics for the team at that time. With three additional games against Big Ten competition, I will take another snap shot of team […]
USELESS BREAKDOWN: Texas A&M at Missouri
Justin Wilcox made his career as a high-level defensive coordinator before taking over in Berkeley. His tenure started out okay, but the fanbase is starting to get a little restless after five straight losing seasons. His 2025 defense isn’t really the issue, but it hasn’t helped much in the goal of getting over the hump […]

Two years ago, LSU sported one of the worst defenses that I’ve seen in my lifetime, and the Tigers axed their defensive coordinator and brought in Blake Baker from Missouri, who helped stabilize things a bit. They improved to a middle-of-the-road average as a unit that had some decent pass defense chops while struggling against […]
Here’s why I’m NOT worried about Saturday afternoon morning when the Bulldogs face the Lebby Luddites: 1. Both teams have played a lot of close games. In MSU’s 4 conference losses, 3 of them were 1 score differentials, the exception being a strong A&M team that was held to their 2nd lowest point total of […]
What Nevada wants to see from true freshman QB Carter Jones over season’s final month Somehow, we’ve blinked and its already November and the final month of the college football regular season. Nevada head coach Jeff Choate details what he wants to see from his freshman quarterback to conclude the season. Boise State fans hold […]
I’ve just realized that many of you are going to be reading things from me on a way more frequent basis. That’s because Nebraska basketball has started, and I think I’ll be contributing in some fashion for almost three straight weeks. I’m basically on pace to write/contribute to an article here on Corn Nation every […]
