I’m going on the road this week. I have never been to Boulder, but I am excited to check this one off the list of Big 12 towns to visit. I’ve looked back in my head and determined that we may have a problem. I have not been successful at seeing road wins, at all. […]
The CFB26 Rebels are 2-3 coming off their win against LSU and their bye week. THANK GOD that is not the real life scenario. While EA Sports is only batting .400 in this simulated season of Ole Miss Rebel football, I would imagine it would be difficult to get this week wrong (although they simulated […]
With new branding and a new *official* name, no longer the American Athletic Conference, the American Conference looks to be highly competitive again this year with heavy amounts of turnover across the league. Predicted Order of Finish: South Florida Bulls New head coach Brian Hodgson found his way to Tampa and brought a whole slew […]
The Washington State Cougars return to action on Saturday, following their bye week, as they head to Oxford, Mississippi, to play the No. 4 Ole Miss Rebels. WSU will wear their classic crimson-white-crimson uniform set as they look for the big road upset. This week’s uniform combo is the first since the week one gray/crimson/gray […]
Iowa State As much as I want to just say the linebackers as a whole, I’m going to emphasize Carson Willich. He had his ups and downs on Saturday, and he’ll need to shake off those low points while keeping a strong eye on Kaidon Salter and the Colorado run game. The Cyclones got crushed […]
Iowa State This past weekend against Cincinnati was the first real time we saw the full extent of the Cyclone wide receiver room as Brett Eskildsen, Chase Sowell, and Xavier Townsend combined for 19 catches, 213 yards, and a pair of touchdowns. We haven’t seen as much of Gabe Burkle and Benjamin Brahmer, and the […]
Football I don’t have much to say about the game this past Saturday. You already know how it went down, you’ve heard what the coaches and players had to say, and you’ve read Jon Morse’s thoughts on the whole debacle. The tagline for this season should be “not when it matters.” Case in point: the […]
An absolutely inexplicable pair of plays as Kansas State was in position to salt the game away utterly backfired, and the Baylor Bears defeated the Wildcats 35-34 at McLane Stadium on a final-minute 53-yard field goal by Connor Hawkins followed by a blocked field goal attempt by Luis Rodriguez The loss overshadowed what had been […]
Your Kansas State Wildcats finally looked like a competitive football team in 2025 during their 34-20 win over UCF in Manhattan last weekend. It certainly wasn’t perfect, and they still have a ways to go to get back on track for preseason goals, but it was a significant step in the correct direction. Now the […]
I know you have all seen Rocky IV. It’s one of the finest films ever made, a cinematic masterpiece if you will, so why wouldn’t you have? Last week’s picks reminded me a lot of Rocky IV. Less than one Continue reading Week Five College/NFL Picks: BCole Looks to Avoid Balboa-like Beatdown →
Source The Miami Hurricanes are strutting into midseason with confidence, but anyone who follows ACC football knows the real gauntlet hasn’t even started. The early wins are nice, sure, but the stretch that matters, the one that will define Miami’s Continue reading Miami Hurricanes’ Biggest Tests Still Ahead in 2025 →
Hello there! I recognize that this weekly rant is a bit late, so to the four of you reading, I apologize for my tardiness. The reason behind this column’s latency is hopefully a good one, as I spent the weekend in Colorado, visiting a longtime friend from my college days in Iowa, and watching the […]
After allowing 118 points over the last two weeks, Washington State finally put things together defensively to hold the Colorado State Rams out of the end zone for a refreshing 20-3 win on the road. Heading into the 2025 season, Jimmy Rogers wanted to bring over his defensive, run-first identity to the Palouse. While WSU […]
Four games into the season may not be quite enough to get a full picture of the new WSU Cougars, but it’s a good enough sample size. There are more questions than answers thus far, and the few answers we have aren’t pretty. Through the season’s first two games, it looked like, generally speaking, WSU […]
Have you ever hosted a house-warming party where the guests turn foul? I mean, they’re invited. Shit, you invited them. But they correct you every turn, tell you what furniture should go where, and worse yet… it turns out they’re Continue reading Week Four College/NFL Picks: DRealEmcee Joins an Increasingly Rude List of Houseguests →
Perfection. When we think of perfection, we think of things like the Sistine Chapel, the first two Godfather movies, Nolan Ryan’s fastball or the first 37 fights of Mike Tyson’s career. We fruitlessly chase perfection, hoping just to be good Continue reading Week Three College/NFL Picks: Milhouse’s Extremely Level Playing Field →
My, how times have changed. It didn’t take all that long either. We fickle football fans change our minds on a whim, especially when given enough reasons. And by reasons, I specifically mean… losses. Only last year, I wrote about Continue reading If you think things are bad now, Gator Football fans, wait until Jon Gruden becomes your next head coach. →
I turned on my stove the other day. It didn’t heat up. I clicked on the ignition to my Hyundai. It didn’t start. I tried to log on to my website to complain to you about all of this. My Continue reading Week Two College/NFL picks: Digging out of the hole with J-Dub →
A very noteworthy preseason exhibition is finally set in stone after months of teasers from Red Storm head coach Rick Pitino. St. John’s is scheduled to take on Michigan in an exhibition game at Madison Square Garden as part of the Bad Boy Mowers Series on Saturday, October 25. Tip-off is slated for 7 p.m. […]
The landscape of sports representation underwent a significant shift in May 2025 when Patrick Whitesell, the former executive chairman of Endeavor, announced the launch of WIN Sports Group. This new football-focused agency emerged from the dissolution of WME Sports’ football division, highlighting the complex web of conflicts that can arise when private equity meets professional […]
Minnesota’s Alissa Boltz is set to make her professional boxing debut this weekend, but it’s not your typical first fight in the pro ranks. The 32-year-old featherweight from Buffalo, now training out of Jungle Gym Boxing Academy in Duluth, will be suiting up for the Atlanta Attack in the third season of Team Combat League […] The post Duluth’s Alissa Boltz to Make Pro Debut with Atlanta Attack in Team Combat League appeared first on MN Boxing Events, Shows, News, MN Boxers, Schedule .
The Huskies were out-gained significantly and could not get much going offensively, but found a way to compete in a tough road P4 matchup.
It wasn't always pretty but it sure was at the end.
The Huskies have proven their might and appear to have a relatively soft schedule the rest of the way. Could this be a 9-win team?
The Huskies dominated, again.
