Date: Saturday, September 7, 2024 Time: 7:00 p.m. (ET) TV: ESPN+ The Quick Hits For the first time in a long time (almost two years, to be exact), #1 South Dakota State (0-1) has suffered a loss, although that one was expected last week at Oklahoma State. The defending champions, the Jackrabbits, are looking to […]
Tenacious, clever, with equal mental and physical strength. This is the kind of football team that Antonio Pierce and Jim Harbaugh want to lead in their respective 2024 seasons. And it’s a perfect Week 1 matchup, with Pierce’s Las Vegas Raiders heading to Inglewood to face the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium, two AFC […]
CHARLOTTE VILLE, Va. – After the 34-13 opening win over Richmond, Virginia (1-0) will play its first away game of the season on Saturday (September 7) against ACC opponent Wake Forest (1-0) at Allegacy Stadium in Winston-Salem, North Carolina.

Looking back at Week 1, everything was fine until the Florida schools took the field. In fact, we were right with our bets until 3:30.

I really don’t want to be a spoilsport, I swear, but I don’t think the Philadelphia Eagles will win their opening game Friday night against the Green Bay Packers in São Paulo, Brazil. However, I expect the Eagles to go 13-4 this season, so I’m not saying a Week 1 loss—even a close one—will be […]
Technically, the Dodgers’ road trip continues on Tuesday, but in reality the team is back home as they face the Angels in two games at Angel Stadium in Anaheim. These will be Shohei Ohtani’s first games that count in a stadium he has called home for the past six seasons. He received a standing ovation […]
Notes from Tuesday… SEVENTH INNING NUMBERS: Last night’s loss was the Cubs’ 10th in which they led after seven innings. They have won 55 games in which they led after seven innings. They are 6-49 when trailing after seven innings and 10-8 when the score is tied. So if every one of their games had […]
