I hope everyone had a great bye week. May you continue to be undefeated on byes. And hopefully you survived Halloween last night and that this game will be a hangover cure rather than a hangover inducer. At this point Clemson is what it is. Much like previous years there are well defined weaknesses on […]

I’m going to be honest with you, the first seven weeks of the Ohio State football season went even better than I could have anticipated (and I predicted them to go 16-0 and repeat as national champions). But with two off weeks worked into the season, it allows Ryan Day and his staff to be […]

Current Chicago Bears Head Coach Ben Johnson played football at the University of North Carolina as a walk-on quarterback under offensive coordinator John Shoop, who also happened to be the Bears’ play-caller in 2001. Shoop, serving as offensive coordinator under then-head coach Dick Jauron when Chicago visited Cincinnati on Oct. 21, 2001, played a formative role in Johnson’s coaching development. Johnson has credited Shoop as one of his biggest mentors, and it seems fitting that we revis...

Earlier this week, several of us here at Tar Heel Blog mused that UNC running back Demon June needed to be getting more carries as the UNC offense continued to struggle against both good opponents and bad. He’s been the best back based on both the box scores and the eye test. June seemed to […]

11am CT on ABC. Boy did this week look a lot different on paper when schedules were first released. Time for the Gridiron Dore defense to be as stout as they were against Missourah (spits) and drop some Fallen Arches, Diego Pavia and the Boys (Dirty Mike can’t come) to get their offensive groove back, […]
Mike: Prepare for an overload of the Rolling Stones on Saturday night. Jarek: I want to hear “Back in Black” as the Blackshirts come out and the place to go nuts like it was against Colorado last year. Penn State (+19.5) at Ohio State Mike: This isn’t the game that Fox planned to inflict Big […]

How to watch: Sat, 11/01 , 10:15 PM/EST – ESPN As the 2026 NFL Draft cycle quietly starts taking shape, one name beginning to climb onto the radar of scouts and potentially the Jets is Brendan Sorsby.

The #12 ranked Notre Dame Fighting Irish are in Chestnut Hill to face the Boston College Eagles. This isn’t, however, the Boston College team that the Irish normally have faced throughout the Holy War series… this team is really, really bad. BC has just one win this season, and that was in the season opener […]

So, throughout the season, members of our staff will be making predictions about that day’s game. They will go on the record with what they think the final score will be, who the game’s MVP […]
Once upon a time, when I was in high school, WSU football made me appreciate defense. In my grade school days, Drew Bledsoe and Ryan Leaf were my go-to players to watch, and I couldn’t wait to see what they did when WSU had the ball. But as I matured, it was the defense that […]
