I have a video tape of the Colts Jets game from 1969–the Namath Guarantee Super Bowl. Well, when I watched the game again it was clear the then Baltimore Colts should have scored at least 5 touchdowns. Yesterday it felt like it was a replay of that game. Three touchdowns were eliminated –2 by penalties and 1 by a dropped ball of a lofted pass that most high school receivers could have handled. Up and down the field the Ravens … Read More »
Maryland kept their program-record home court winning streak alive with the school’s 45th straight win in College Park with a 76-44 victory over Stony Brook in the first of three games in the Terrapin Classic.

An extremely productive first half gave the Terrapins a comfortable 20-point lead. In the first 20 minutes two players, Kizer and Diandra Tchatchouang, scored in double-digits, 28 points … Read More »

Greivis was stellar today scoring 26 on 12-20 shooting with 8 rebounds and 5 assists. After the game he spoke about the need for stronger rebounding and his slow start. Greivis FAU

Some interesting issues:
Today we will see what kind of kicker Billy Cundiff is.
If #86 doesn’t play for Pitt, they have no chance.
Hoping for Chris Carr to score today on a punt return. … Read More »
Twas not a great day for the ACC as Pitt defeated Carolina 19-17 and USC bested BC 24-13 in the Emerald Bowl in San Fran.
I was shocked to hear Urban Meyer resigned due to health reasons. Arguably Florida has one of top 2 or 3 football programs in the country. My prediction for his replacement—Jon Gruden.
The Terps opponent today is Florida Atlantic University, located in Boca Raton, Fl. F.A.U. is 5-6 this year, 1-1 in the Sun Belt after going 6-26 last season. The Owls are led in scoring by 5’6″ freshman guard Raymond Taylor averaging 17.6 a game, 6’2″ freshman guard Gregg Gantt at 13.5 pts a game and 6’3″ soph guard Shavar Richardson chipping in 9.9 a game. 6’8″ 235lb. jr. forward Brett Royster delivers 9.4 pts and 6.5 rebounds a game and … Read More »
