As someone who has to watch football games from around the country all day long, I am begging the right to literally have one other thing to say than "[Democratic candidate in my state] will make you trans." I need new content, I'm begging you.
They've bowed up in the red zone but I just feel like Iowa's defense has looked awful for the most part
Yo-Yo Ma performing at halftime of the Michigan football game feels spiritually Bluesky (complimentary)
One of the worst parts of the NIL era is that John Mateer is stuck continuing to play football for money instead of living out his dream of being an Instagram model
To this point, everything around Arch has been picture perfect. He just has to play better. The flashes are nice, but flashes aren't enough.
Rodger Sherman@rodger.bsky.social · yesterdayok, here's my One Arch Take: The Mannings clearly thought giving Arch 4 years at the same school with the same staff, not worrying about the rat race of playing time/the portal/NIL, would give him stability to develop, but for whatever reason he's still raw/toolsy 4 years in rather than polished
Before Cam Buffington starred at Iowa, he terrorized opponents on the eight-man football field. I collected tall tales from Winfield to learn how small school ball shaped the next great Iowa MIKE. “If he has that matchup, we’re throwing a go route.” www.cbssports.com/college-foot...
How eight-man football shaped breakout Iowa star linebacker Cam Buffington
Before racking up double-digit tackles against Iowa State, the Hawkeyes linebacker was a multi-sport legend who dominated eight-man high school football

Sources confirmed Miami briefly lost communication during the game, but disputed whether it happened on the final drive. All said it lasted only a play or two and did not decide Indiana's win

A forewarning that this one is difficult. But it’s a credit to Duncan Robinson and his family for telling it. They hope it’ll help others. And maybe it’ll be a good reminder that “we can all be a little less certain about knowing what someone is going through.” www.nytimes.com/athletic/761...
ICE snatched up a Senegalese college basketball player with an ACL injury in a Kentucky airport. She’s “in so much pain” and needs surgery, but is being transferred from camp to camp with little more than ibuprofen. www.kentucky.com/news/state/k...
Sooners Illustrated sources confirm that Oklahoma star defensive tackle David Stone — a projected first-round pick — sustained a serious lower-body injury in practice Monday evening.

Confidence isn't necessarily a tangible thing, but it's a real thing. And for Oklahoma's offense, it's a fleeting thing after another lackluster performance, this time in a 14-6 win against New Mexico. "I expect more," Brent Venables said. "...That can't be the product."
'That can't be the product': Confidence, and time, is running out for Oklahoma's offense
Oklahoma's offense turned in another lackluster performance in a 14-6 win against New Mexico, raising more questions for Ben Arbuckle as the Sooners prepare to start SEC play.

Said this on the other app but I’m fascinated by Venables complete inability to hide whose fault he thinks it is when things go bad. I don’t know if he even means to, but he’s constantly throwing people under the bus.
Tom Green@tomasverde.bsky.social · last wk.Asked about his confidence in Ben Arbuckle as Oklahoma’s offensive coordinator, Brent Venables says: “I’m not going to talk about confidence. He’s our play-caller.”
I don't know if I ever posted this one here, but it's one of my favorite stories I've ever gotten to write. Last year, I talked to the people of Grand Rapids about their native son Trinidad Chambliss, the brightest and most unlikely star in college football. www.cbssports.com/college-foot...
