What does the tape tell us about the Giants’ win over Houston? The New York Giants came out of their bye week swinging, topping the Houston Texans 24-16. The Giants improved to 7-2 on the season, cementing their best start since the 2008 season.
We all saw what happened as the game unfolded. But as always, Chris and Nick went back to the All-22 tape to not just see what happened, but why. So what did the tape reveal about the Giants’ seventh win of the se...

Odell Beckham rumors: New York Giants remain at forefront of Beckham sweepstakes
Could the Odell Beckham Jr. sweepstakes be a “coin flip” between the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys . A Beckham confidante thinks so.
“If I’m a betting man right now,” Nelson Stewart, Odell’s high school told The New York Post. “I’d flip a coin between New York and Dallas. It’s tight. But of all the teams I’ve heard about, the on...

After a shaky start to the Greg Brown Era for Boston College that included a loss to Holy Cross and a sweep at the hands of Merrimack, the Eagles continued to show steady improvement on Tuesday night, following up a four-point weekend against Northeastern last weekend with a victory over a ranked opponent, defeating UMass Lowell 3-2 at Conte Forum.
With the team’s leading scorer, junior Trevor Kuntar out of the line-up serving a one-game suspension...

It was an important day for the Sacred Heart men’s and women’s hockey programs yesterday as work crews began putting in ice on the brand new Martire Family Arena, which is set to open up in two months.
The new 4000-seat on-campus arena will be a major upgrade for both Pioneers programs. The men currently play at Total Mortgage Arena, one of the doddering cavernous tombs that the NCAA keeps selecting for NCAA regionals, eight miles off campus, while the women have ...

It’s a short turnaround from the 2022 tournament, which took place this past June in Madison, Wisconsin after being rescheduled due to Covid, giving the US a quick opportunity to avenge their loss to Canada in that tournament’s gold medal game.

Back in 2008, way before SB Nation became part of Vox Media, Brad Lee asked me to start writing a weekly column for Game Time. Tuesdays With Hildy looked at an issue of the week facing the Blues, handling analysis with careful thought and consideration.
Or something. I’m not really sure what it did, but it was interesting enough that in 2013, as the lockout wound down, Brad passed the website baton to me. Over nearly a decade, I’ve always tried my best -...

Can the Blues turn around a sinking ship? To say that the Blues’ play as of late has been uninspiring is being very generous. Mired in their longest regulation losing streak since Craig Berube took over as coach, the pressure is on for this team to play as well as they did during the first three games.
Brandon Saad is still out for tonight, but the team has options, and they’ve chosen to exercise them. From stlblues.com, here’re tonight’s lines:

What is going on with this team? It’s been a while since Blues fans have been treated to a stretch of play this putrid. What began as a good effort loss to the Winnipeg Jets last week has slid into an absolute dumpster fire in which it looks like the Blues are actively trying to lose games.
Their 6-2 loss against the Nashville Predators was bad, but their 7-4 loss on Saturday night against the Montreal Canadiens was atrocious. A blown 3-1 lead sl...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but it doesn’t look like he’ll be in.
He’s getting one more game’s worth of rest before returning Monday night against the Los Angeles Kings, and honestly, a healthy Buchnevich is worth one more game out. Will that make a win again...

Does this mean that scoring reinforcements are coming? The Blues’ offense has been sputtering thanks to the absence of Pavel Buchnevich and Brandon Saad. Thankfully, part of the missing pieces are returning tonight.
The Blues have announced that they have activated Buchnevich from the IR, and will be sending Josh Leivo down to the Springfield Thunderbirds.
Buchnevich has only had the opportunity to play in one game, the team’s opening night w...

This could be a tougher task than the Blues expect. The less said about the Blues’ humbling 6-2 loss to the Nashville Predators on Thursday night the better. Goaltending was a mess of flubber and kicksaves straight to the opposing team. Defense, which has been strong through a bulk of the Blues’ season so far, followed the goaltending, making for discombobulated scene. The offense, which shone through the Blues’ first three games, has been nearly abse...

Once on a five game losing streak, the Predators erupted to punish the Blues. Brayden Schenn blasted a one-timer into the roof of the net to make the score 2-1 midway through the second period. The Blues looked like they may break the game wide open against a Predators team on a five game skid. Instead, Schenn’s goal was the last time the Blues looked remotely interested in scoring for the remainder of the game.
Absolutely Schenn-sational. #s...

There is no more rivalry between the Cincinnati Bearcats and the Miami Redhawks. Just take a look at the student sections from last Saturday’s game if there is any doubt. Maybe back in the 90’s or early 2000’s when Miami fielded competitive teams and Cincinnati was just starting to navigate their football program, this rivalry meant something to the fans of both schools, but this game is about as important to both fanbases as K eeping ...
