The World Cup semifinal between England and Argentina on Wednesday proved to be an all-timer that featured tons of tough physical play.

It is rare for a starting quarterback to hit the free-agent market, but the ongoing impasse between the Tampa Bay Buccaneers and Baker Mayfield could make the former No. 1 overall pick a hot commodity when the free-agent carousel starts spinning in 2027. After earning consecutive Pro Bowl selections with Tampa Bay, while producing a pair of 4,000-yard seasons and guiding the club to back-to-back division titles in 2023-24, Mayfield […]

The Miami Hurricanes are back on the national scene in college football in large part due to the acquisition of two high-profile transfer quarterbacks the past two years. They're counting on a third, Darian Mensah from Duke, to keep them in the conversation. The junior redshirt quarterback said Wednesday he made the move to Miami largely because of the success Cam Ward and Carson Beck experienced after joining the Hurricanes […]

As you probably know by now, diving into regular-season win totals for college football might be one of my favorite pastimes. And I believe where I've landed recently could get us a return on our investment when it comes to one squad's Under. I also believe that my Oregon Ducks and last year's championship runner-up, the Miami Hurricanes, are bound to make deep postseason runs. Here's my latest. This page […]
