The Carolina Panthers fell 13-16 to the Chicago Bears on Thursday Night Football. Panthers head coach Frank Reich elected to send kicker Eddy Pineiro out to attempt a 59-yard field goal with 1:40 on the clock and the game on the line. It turned out to be too much leg for the veteran kicker, and […]

The first set of 2023’s College Football Playoff rankings dropped last Tuesday, ahead of Week 10’s games. Out of the committee’s first rankings, just one top 10 team, Oklahoma, lost, and a couple others survived some real scares. So how does that shake up this week’s top 10, which will be revealed Tuesday night? These […]

Texas football narrowly survived Kansas State in overtime on Saturday without starting quarterback Quinn Ewers. Longhorns head coach Steve Sarkisian gave an injury update and said Ewers was able to throw on Monday.

Following their hiring of former Milwaukee Brewers manager Craig Counsell, the Chicago Cubs have emerged as a potential landing spot for Justin Turner. Turner signed a one-year deal with the Boston Red Sox ahead of the 2023 MLB season, and that contract included a player option for 2024. However, Turner declined that option last week […]

Week 9 in the NFL features an excellent prime-time matchup on Sunday Night Football. The Cincinnati Bengals host the Buffalo Bills, and both of these AFC Super Bowl contenders need a big win here.

Dak Prescott will have his long-time protector Tyron Smith back on his offensive line as the Dallas Cowboys travel to face their NFC East rival, the Philadelphia Eagles, on Sunday. Smith has been dealing with a neck injury, which kept him out of last week’s dominant win over the Los Angeles Rams. He wasn’t able […]

The Golden State Warriors defeated the Oklahoma City Thunder in quite bizarre fashion to the tune of a controversial 141-139 finish.

Friday night’s game ended with a game-winner by Steph Curry that was originally ruled […]

The Milwaukee Bucks narrowly squeaked out a 110-105 victory over the New York Knicks on Friday night, staving off a 45-point explosion from Jalen Brunson.

The Las Vegas Raiders cleaned house merely hours after deciding not to trade away valuable pieces at the 2023 NFL Trade Deadline. Owner Mark Davis gave the boot to head coach Josh McDaniels, offensive coordinator Mick Lombardi, and general manager Dave Ziegler. Jimmy Garoppolo’s time as a starting quarterback is now finished as well. That […]

The 2023 NFL Trade Deadline has passed, and it was a relatively quiet one. The rebuilding Washington Commanders traded Chase Young and Montez Sweat to the San Francisco 49ers and the Chicago Bears respectively. But those were easily the biggest mid-season moves around the NFL. Like many teams, the Baltimore Ravens passed on making any […]

In his short tenure as the starting quarterback of the Tennessee Titans, Will Levis has quickly found success throwing to Tennessee’s top offseason acquisition, WR DeAndre Hopkins. The five-time All-Pro has now amassed 50+ receiving yards in each of his first three full halves with Levis after reeling in four balls for 60 yards in […]

José Altuve was the hero for the Houston Astros in Game 5 of the ALCS. Down 4-2 in the top of the ninth, he launched a three-run homer off closer José Leclerc to stick the dagger in the Texas Rangers, giving the Astros a massive win to take a 3-2 lead in the series. But […]

The ALCS is heating up between the Texas Rangers and the Houston Astros in this pivotal Game 5. Adolis Garcia just blasted a clutch three-run homer off of 3x Cy Young winner Justin Verlander to give the Rangers a 4-2 lead in the sixth. Globe Life Field has been ready to explode for three games […]

The Houston Astros defeated the Texas Rangers 10-3 at Globe Life Field in Arlington, Texas to even the ALCS at 2-2.

Baker was apparently under the impression that the Astros and Rangers would each keep […]

With a last-minute 31-24 win over the New Orleans Saints on Thursday Night Football, the Jacksonville Jaguars snapped a 20-year stretch without a win in this matchup.

The Arizona Diamondbacks’ 2-1 win over the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 3 of the NLCS was a perfect exposition of the resolve that has carried this team up to this point.

With Kyren Williams set to at least miss Sunday’s game against the Pittsburgh Steelers, Sean McVay and the Los Angeles Rams have a lot to figure out at running back. Ronnie Rivers is also out for Week 7, so the Rams’ options are sixth-round rookie Zach Evans, or the two backs they added to the […]

Texas Rangers skipper Bruce Bochy officially announced the ALCS Game 5 starter against the Houston Astros. None other than Jordan Montgomery will take the hill on Friday. This is no surprise, as Montgomery has been a godsend for the Rangers since they acquired him at the trade deadline in August. He hasn’t pitched since Sunday, […]

As the Kansas City Chiefs prepare for a Week 7 AFC West matchup against the Los Angeles Chargers, special teams coach Dave Toub dropped a surprising revelation about the Chiefs’ depth chart.

Brazilian soccer star Neymar Jr. was carted off the pitch during Tuesday’s World Cup qualifying match against Uruguay with a scary lower body injury at Estadio Centario in Montevideo.

Air Force football is quietly one of the eight remaining undefeated FBS teams. The Falcons snuck into this week’s AP Poll at No. 22 after a respectable 34-27 win over Wyoming.

The San Francisco 49ers lost Christian McCaffrey and Deebo Samuel to an oblique injury and a shoulder injury, the Chicago Bears lost Justin Fields for an uncertain timeline, and the Los Angeles Rams lost Kyren Williams. With another drove of […]

In the two-year run of dominance that Kirby Smart and this Georgia football team have delivered, culminating in back-to-back National Championships, the Bulldogs have never been without superstar tight end Brock Bowers. He has started every game for Georgia since the start of the 2021 season, and he has been nothing but elite. Now, however, […]

Texas Rangers manager Bruce Bochy just named Max Scherzer the ALCS Game 3 starter against the Houston Astros. Scherzer returns to the hill for the first time since September 12.

No. 11 Alabama football hosts No. 17 Tennessee on Saturday. The Crimson Tide has now won five straight games after losing at home to Texas.

The Dallas Cowboys entered the 2023 NFL season with high hopes as usual, but they’re off to a slow 3-2 start. A Micah Parsons-led defense should theoretically be one of the best units in the league. Meanwhile, Dak Prescott continues to run the offense, this time with Mike McCarthy running the plays. One anonymous NFL […]

USC football heads to South Bend on Saturday to take on Notre Dame in the 94th edition of this classic non-conference rivalry.

The time has come once again for Clayton Kershaw to make choices about his MLB future. Will he return for a 17th season with the Los Angeles Dodgers? Will he head back home and play for the Texas Rangers? Or will the future first-ballot Hall of Famer decide to hang up the spikes? For the […]

The 2023 season went from bad to worse for the Minnesota Vikings in Week 5, when Justin Jefferson went down with a hamstring injury against the Kansas City Chiefs.

The backstory of the UFC 294 saga […]

The Las Vegas Raiders just won their first game against the Green Bay Packers since 1987. Amik Robertson picked off Jordan Love in the end zone to seal the game and snap this 36-year streak.

With their epic 5-4 comeback victory over the Philadelphia Phillies in Game 2 of the NLDS, the Atlanta Braves tied a franchise record for the largest postseason comeback.

The Baltimore Ravens fell 10-17 in disappointing fashion to their AFC North Rival, the Pittsburgh Steelers. The Ravens played an excellent game defensively but couldn’t muster enough offense to put together a win. Divisional losses are costly, and the Steelers now hold the same record as the Ravens. Should Lamar Jackson, John Harbaugh and the […]

The Miami Dolphins rolled the New York Giants 31-16 on Sunday, improving to 4-1 on the season. Tua Tagovailoa continues to lead the NFL’s most productive offense, throwing for 308 yards and two touchdowns on 73% accuracy. His performance wasn’t without flaws, however, as he also threw two interceptions. Tagovailoa took accountability for the mistakes […]

The Denver Broncos have turned in their final Week 5 injury report, and it bears bad news. Running back Javonte Williams will not play Sunday against the New York Jets, according to Tom Pelissero. The Broncos will turn to Samaje Perine and Jaleel McLaughlin to handle the majority of touches out of the backfield. Williams […]
