To open the season, Oakland played at No. […]
I honestly don’t want to live in a football reality where UNC pays Bill Belichick $30,000,000 to get owned by Manny Diaz.

UNC took Duke to the wire in a game many expected to […]

For 55 minutes Iowa looked like […]
For just the second time this season, I’m predicting the Philadelphia Eagles to lose a football game. The first time was last week, when I incorrectly predicted a Detroit Lions win.
