Football is religion. For most of the country, football is a way of life, something that people eat and breathe daily. Places in the south like Starkville, Gainesville, and Fayetteville look forward to six Saturday’s every year, and this weekend, I found out how truly religious every fan in Arkansas is about their Hogs.
I’ve wanted to go to a SEC game for as long as I could remember. Seeing a game with 75,000+ fans all cheering for their lifelong team is...

I know what I said...shut up. I wasn’t all that wrong. Ok fine...the PTSD from past events was too much for me.
I was wrong, but not by a whole lot.
Oklahoma State started slow, but a Tom Hutton - Brennan Pressley gem gave the defense the opportunity it needed to flex a little muscle. One safety and a quarter later OSU was well on its way to a comfortable blowout and I suppose some exorcizing of the demon of the untimed down.

It’s been a while since we last met, back when OSU came within inches of creating a college football playoff debate AGAIN, then going on to take down a team with a bigger logo than the Cowboys, then Gundy reminding everyone that Oklahoma State has a logo too.
Which one is he referring to? We have a LOT of logos…

Let’s check on Cowboy football recruiting with summer coming to an end. With summer ending and the season beginning, now is as good of a time as ever to check in on how recruiting is doing. This class will slide back from recent recruiting finishes because it will be a smaller class, but there is no reason for panic or concern.
Oklahoma State signed the No. 30 and No. 29 class in the nation, respectively, for the class of 2021 and 2022, t...

It was a spirited effort in the blazing sun, but not to be today. Southampton could not overcome Bruno Fernandes’ second-half goal in a 1-0 Premier League loss to Manchester United on Saturday.
Fernandes finished off a smart team goal on 55 minutes that saw the Portuguese international volley in Diogo Dalot’s fizzing cross with a right foot into the bottom corner.

He is a sexy footballer isn’t he? In my view there were a number of really strong performances against an expensively assembled Aston Villa team boasting some big names and talented players. Bolton Wanderers more than held their own for 45 minutes, and were somewhat unfortunate not to be ahead at the break.
However, for me one man stood out and that is Kieran Lee. I can only think of one time in the game where he received the ball and his touch let him d...
