There has been an interesting phenomenon that has stretched all the way from articles, to social media, to the comments on my podcast: Some Wisconsin Badgers fans are back on the Fick Train seemingly because of a closer-than-expected 21-7 loss in the wind and rain against the No. 6 Oregon Ducks. While I was impressed with the […]
Colts Trade Deadline – Booger in 2006 might be blueprint! IU’s Aiden Fisher PROBABLE! Pacers wounded!
Arizona got a much needed week off after back-to-back heartbreaking losses to BYU and Houston, teams that have kept on winning and are a combined 15-1 this season. The focus has fully shifted to this week’s opponent, Colorado, but during the bye the lingering effects of those previous games was still being felt. “They’re pissed […]
On a recent episode of the Managing Madrid Podcast, Kiyan Sobhani and Sara Poraria of SportyTV discussed many topics, including Sara’s many viral pitch-side interviews, the state of both Real Madrid and Barcelona, and much more. The full episode can be found here. Around the time this podcast was published, Vinicius Jr was not starting every […]
Iowa State has lost three games in a row just twice since Matt Campbell’s first year in Ames. A 5-game losing streak in the middle of 2022 and a 3-game skid to close out that same year when the Cyclones finished 4-8 overall and 1-8 in the Big 12. Could they avoid such a streak […]
You may have heard that the website formerly known as Twitter has been purchased and is now X, a simply horrendous name in my opinion but then again I am not a billionaire so take my suggestions with a grain of salt. You may also know that we have historically shared our favorite tweets from […]
Kenneth Williams opened the second half of the Northwestern game by taking the their kickoff on the 5-yard line. From there, he sensed that the Wildcats had deployed too many forces to that side of the field and immediately turned on the jets to try and make the corner on the opposite side of the […]
Whew was that a close one! I’ll even throw a bit of confetti around about my personal prediction on the outcome of the game but note that it almost came true so there’s not as much crow to munch on. The story of the game was a bit of redemption, and a rescue of the […]
Upon hearing the news Sunday night, I texted my football frenemy Bookstore. “Sayonara Brian Kelly.” “So long F-Bomb.” The dude is often not subtle with his barbs. “54 million. No problem. Three weeks in a row big time coach fired,” replied moi. “But not Kentucky or Wisconsin,” he retorted, citing his two alma maters, having […]
The Virginia Cavaliers (7-1, 4-0 ACC) survived in miraculous fashion yet again on Saturday afternoon at North Carolina (2-5, 0-3 ACC), eking out a 17-16 overtime victory after Tar Heels running back Benjamin Hall was stopped at the one-inch line on UNC’s unsuccessful game-winning two-point conversion attempt. Despite the win, Virginia’s offense sputtered for the […]
Welcome to The Shotgun/Throwdown, your daily West Virginia sports roundup (that we didn’t already talk about in another article) with some sophomoric humor and daily distractions thrown in for good measure. And if there’s something we missed, be sure to talk about it in the comments. West Virginia women’s soccer kept things rolling on Senior Day, handling Oklahoma […]
For once, not much craziness happened in the Big Ten this week. Four teams were on bye, and the rest of the games (apart from two) weren’t that close. There were two known rivalry games though! Here’s what happened around the Big Ten in Week 9: Bye Weeks: Maryland (4-3, 1-3 B1G), No. 1 Ohio […]
With a ton of elbow grease and a bit of good fortune, the ‘Huskers have snapped the ‘Cats four-game win streak. Unlike Northwestern’s first two losses to Tulane and No. 6 Oregon, last Saturday against Nebraska showed the true grit and determination of David Braun’s squad. After a kick return touchdown to open the second […]
It was an all around excellent game as the Dawgs took care of business, dispatching the Illinois Fighting Illini by a score of 42-25. Let’s get to what we learned! “Don’t baby me!” If there was a defining moment from the Huskies’ win, Denzel Boston definitely had a few candidates. His 10 catches, for 153 […]
Arizona has not been home for a football game in a few weeks, and it will be a little longer before the next one. But when the Wildcats do return to Arizona Stadium it will be for some afternoon delight. The UA’s Homecoming game on Nov. 8 against Kansas will kick off at 1:30 p.m. […]
The SEC announced Monday that No. 3 Texas A&M at No. 19 Missouri will kickoff at 2:30 p.m. and air on ABC on Saturday, Nov. 8. The Aggies avoided a night game on the road, as LSU at Alabama was chosen for the 6:30 p.m. time slot. Missouri is coming off a 17-10 loss at […]
Following Texas A&M’s dominant 49-25 win over LSU, two Aggies were selected for SEC Player of the Week designations. Marcel Reed was chosen as the SEC Offensive Player of the Week for the first time this season. Reed diced up a stout LSU defense, accounting for 310 yards of offense and four total touchdowns. He […]

Indiana was the story of the 2024 college football regular season when the Hoosiers, led by then-first year head coach Curt Cignetti, went a stunning 11-1 and made it into the very first 12-team College Football Playoff field, ultimately falling in the first round. At the time, nationally, some treated the Hoosiers as something of […]

That Pittsburgh game was a tough one, but hey, great news: they only get tougher from here! NC State returns home to try and hand Georgia Tech its first loss of the season, which would be a bit of revenge that is 23 years in the making. Georgia Tech has won three one-score games to […]
Northwestern’s men’s and women’s swim and dive teams got in the bus and went on the road, taking stops in South Bend to face Notre Dame last Friday, and Ann Arbor to face Michigan and UCLA (though, UCLA only has a women’s team, so the men’s team just swam against Michigan). Across the weekend, Northwestern […]
We’re not done with Saturday night football under the lights of L&N Stadium just yet. Louisville’s Nov. 8 game against Cal has been scheduled for a 7 p.m. kickoff, the ACC announced Monday afternoon. Depending on the results of this weekend’s games, the contest will be televised on either ESPN, ESPN2 or the ACC Network. […]
Upsets and Blowouts. That’s the best way to describe the ACC this past weekend. Of the seven ACC games, six were either upsets or blowouts by at least two touchdowns. The seventh was an almost upset that fell just inches short (more on that below). Regardless, the upsets did a little ranking shaking, while the […]
