Finding a bright spot from Game 5 of the 2024 World Series and at least knowing what the final score would be is not a particularly easy task. Aaron Judge seemed to find his momentum with a much-needed home run in the first inning, and Jazz Chisholm Jr. immediately followed with a shot of his […]

Three minutes into the game, the Spurs were down 14-3. A few missed three balls from open […]

Boston College's almost miraculous comeback came to an unceremonious end on Thursday night with a 42-21 loss at Virginia Tech. Boston College was out of sorts from the start, overwhelmed and running out of the building early in the second quarter. BC's drives went punt, fumble, fumble, punt, both the result of Thomas Castellanos' carelessness, […]

Clemson hit the road this week to face Wake Forest. The Tigers entered the race as 3-touchdown favorites against the 2-3 Demon Deacons. Since the Georgia game, the Tigers have been successful in the first quarter, outscoring their opponents 90-0, but that shouldn't be the case today. Wake scored first, but the Tigers rallied and […]

The tsk-tsking came early and often after the Padres rooted for the Dodgers on Tuesday night. They evened the five-game series with a win each at Chavez Ravine and hit six home runs en route to a 10-2 victory. To be clear, there were a lot of things to complain about.

Cornerback Pat Surtain said last week that the throwback jerseys were so nice that he “had to come out flashy … definitely put something together.” Midway through the second quarter, he did just that. A sweeping 100-yard pick-six that literally changed the game. “We felt like we needed that momentum going forward,” Surtain said. “Obviously […]
