It’s a huge day in Toronto sports history, but for the Raptors, it’s just game no. 2 of 82. The Toronto Raptors will welcome the Milwaukee Bucks at Scotiabank Arena for their home opener tonight, but the attention of everyone will be just two blocks down the street. With the Blue Jays playing game 1 […]
Sunday marks the return of everyone’s favorite throwback uniforms, as the Eagles will don their beloved Kelly Green look against the New York Giants. Since bringing back the Kelly Greens for a couple of games per year beginning in the 2023 campaign, the Eagles are 4-0 in those bad boys. They look sharp and play […]
When the Lakers went into their final game of the preseason against the Sacramento Kings with nearly their entire roster available — minus LeBron James, obviously — it was largely believed this would be a dress rehearsal for their season opener that would come only four days later. Head coach JJ Redick intimated as much […]
First things first, Dominick Barlow had to set the record straight: no, he did not attend St. Joe’s Prep in Philly. Barlow attended Saint Joseph High School in Metuchen, New Jersey, as a freshman before the Hackensack native transferred to Dumont High School. He made it clear back in the early days of training camp […]

Team News After recovery from elbow woes, Jameson throwing heat in AFL“The velo is still there,” Jameson said. “The shapes of my pitches are coming around. I wouldn’t say they’re where they need to be, but they’re getting there. That’s obviously something I have to tinker with. I hadn’t really thrown in a game in […]
Saturday’s game against the Scarlet Knights might be the last chance this Purdue team has to win a football game this season. That’s not a good feeling, but maybe it helps the team focus on the matchup as they find a way to win? I asked the staff for their predictions for this weekend’s contest. […]
David Jiricek probably would have liked to have drawn in for the Minnesota Wild’s home opener against the Columbus Blue Jackets on October 11. Instead, the Wild stuck him in the press box four booths down from Don Waddell, the general manager who traded him after 53 games. While they removed J...
El Clasico is extra special because it comes but twice a year; usually. Sometimes we get three, or even four Clasicos in a season, as FC Barcelona and Real Madrid sometimes clash in tournaments, in addition to the two guaranteed meetings in La Liga every term. We had four in the last campaign, with Barcelona […] The post El Clasico: Barcelona, Real Madrid Predicted Starting XIs appeared first on The Sports Bank .
I figured Bo Bichette was going to be on the roster. Ty France was a surprise, but I guess they want him as a pitch hitter against the Dodgers left-hander pitchers. Joey Loperfido and Yariel Rodriguez. Rodriguez has had a tough time of it lately, giving up three earned and two home runs in one […]
The Hawkeyes fought for the full four quarters a week ago and emerged victorious over Penn State to move to 5-2 on the year and 3-1 in Big Ten play. While they won the game outright, they notably did not cover while hitting the over. This week, Iowa opened as a pretty big favorite against […]
The Notre Dame Fighting Irish are slowly, but surely, moving up the rankings as they work toward a college football playoff berth. The boys are off this week and are at home eating cheeseburgers, but there’s an entire college football world that plays this weekend. It’s playoff football every week for the Irish moving forward, […]
The San Francisco 49ers are coming off their most impressive win of the 2025 season with a 20-10 victory over the Atlanta Falcons to move to 5-2. While the 49ers enter Week 8 three games over .500, don’t let the 2-4 record of the Houston Texans fool you into thinking Sunday in Houston could be […]
It feels like more than a formality that the Ohio State Buckeyes are going to be in the College Football Playoff this December. If the Playoff still only had four teams, I would feel just as confident in saying that this Buckeye team would be one of four teams playing for a national championship. It’s […]
I kinda like that Vanderbilt is good at football. I don’t really like it when Mizzou has to play them. But the story is otherwise very cool. From the overlooked quarterback who now headlines nearly every college football story, to the revival of Jerry Kill, to the fact that Vanderbilt is bowl eligible after 7 […]
The New Orleans Saints head into a crucial NFC South clash against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers in Week 8 of the 2025 NFL season dealing with several key injuries, including multiple season-ending losses, which have significant implications for fantasy football managers. The Wednesday injury report provided some clarity, but managers must monitor updates on key […]
Naithan George and Ibrahim Souare played together for Canyon International Academy, then spent two seasons at Georgia Tech, and are now teammates once again for the Syracuse Orange. Neither of them can even really remember what it felt like to be on a basketball team without the other. “That’s my brother, man,” George said on […]
Sitting in sole possession of last place in the Mountain West, Nevada will host one of its longtime rivals for possibly the last time in a bit. Boise State will be heading to a new conference next year, and they’ll be plenty of festivities before this game. Boise State (5-2, 3-0) @ Nevada (1-6, 0-3) […]

The Minnesota Golden Gophers men’s hockey team returns home for their second of three consecutive weekends of rivalry series when they host the Minnesota-Duluth Bulldogs at 3M Arena at Mariucci this weekend.

Kansas finally returns to the friendly confines of Memorial Stadium, as it is once again the Jayhawks’ turn to host the annual Sunflower Showdown. Kansas is still 65-52-5 all-time vs K-State, but the only number I care about right now is 17; the Purple Cats have won 16 in a row in this series. I […]
The Colts’ offense isn’t just the NFL’s best — it’s on a historic pace, averaging more points per drive than any team since 2000. While the additions of Tyler Warren and a fully healthy Jonathan Taylor have made a huge difference, the biggest reason for the Colts’ offensive success has been Daniel Jones and his […]
“You’re not dreaming,” went a tweet that the Phillies put out on March 22, 2022. “Nick Castellanos is a Phillie”. All dreams give way to reality eventually, but the awakening isn’t always so harsh. Over four seasons with the Phillies, Nick Castellanos has provided some sterling moments but nothing resembling the transformative excellence that was […]
In my preview for this game, I wrote about why I thought this would be a tough game. The Seattle Seahawks managed to make it tough for themselves against the Houston Texans, but for other reasons. A strip-sack in the end zone, three turnovers, and still struggling in the running game. The defense kept us […]
