Jack, Akshay, and FTRS’ Thursday columnist Maggie Scroggs get together to not wallow, but work through our lingering emotions from Georgia Tech’s loss to Pitt, effectively removing any and all of Tech’s postseason chances aside from whatever bowl game we get slotted into and answer some audience questions. Then, somehow (but maybe unsurprisingly) the directional […]

Expectations were high for Drake Maye and the New England Patriots offense as they traveled out to Cincinnati to face off against a historically bad Bengals defense that ranked 32nd in DVOA and EPA per play. While Maye ended the day with a career-high 294 passing yards, it wasn’t always pretty getting there. New England’s […]

As usual, we got our round up of interviews from the Alabama coaching staff at the start of the game week. Ryan Grubb “There’s a lot of factors that go into it. I did it a few times at Fresno. Some of it has to do with comfort level with two parts. Number one, the […]
Curt Cignetti is entering his second Old Oaken Bucket matchup against Purdue as Indiana’s head coach. His first was a statement 66-0 win in Bloomington that cemented the Hoosiers’ bid for an at-large spot in the 2024 College Football Playoff. This week, Indiana has a chance to clinch a spot in the Big Ten Football […]
You may end up feeling a bit of déjà vu on Friday when Indiana heads up north to take on Purdue at Ross-Ade Stadium in West Lafayette.

Welcoming them back to Mpls was a capacity crowd at the Metrodome. Not to […]
Good morning Gang Green Nation! The New York Jets are a bad football team, but if you squint you can see they are making some progress turning things around. They appear to have two very young, better than average offensive tackles to build an offensive line around for years to come. John Metchie is starting […]
TheBuckeyes beat Rutgers by 33 points with both starting wide receivers (and a key backup receiver) tied behind their backs on Saturday. Ohio State’s 42-9 rout of the Scarlet Knights took a while to build up some steam, but the defense’s continued bludgeoning of opponents eventually let the offense catch up. Julian Sayin made good […]
The Notre Dame Women’s Basketball team was back home inside Purcell Pavilion on Monday night to host the MAC’s Central Michigan Chippewas.
