Former UFC Champ Dominick Cruz Returns From Oblivion, Waxes Opponent
Before last night, Dominick Cruz, the UFC's one-time 135-lb. champion, hadn't fought in nearly three years due to an awful run of injuries. Then he turned up against Tayeka Mizugaki, the UFC's no. 5-ranked bantamweight, somehow looking at least as good as he ever has. Fighting is a strange sport....

Counterprogramming Football: What To Watch Today Instead Of The NFL
So, here we are at Week 4, roughly the quarter mark of the NFL season and the first round of bye weeks. Bye weeks were introduced to the NFL schedule in 1990 as a way of extending the regular season, and teams use the time to make roster changes, occasionally fire a coach or two, and, most importa...
Brady Hoke's Dangerous Incompetence So Bad ESPN Announcers Denounce It
Michigan quarterback Shane Morris took a nasty, and illegal, hit to the skull in the fourth quarter of last night's loss to Minnesota. Not only was Morris immediately re-inserted into the game, but Wolverines head coach Brady Hoke claimed " I didn't know if [Morris] had a concussion or not."...

ODU Streaker Spikes Football, Evades Security (For A While) [NSFW?]
It took awhile for us to find good video of this streaker from last night's MTSU-Old Dominion game, but it was worth the wait. Here, from WAVY, is a censored clip of the gentleman who ran onto the field, spiked a football, and evaded a half-dozen security members—all while in full-on streaker mode....

Michigan got its ass handed to it by Minnesota today in front of a dwindling crowd of people, many of whom got in for free. Here are some of those sad, sad fans....
Razorbacks Punter Shows SEC Speed In Scoring On Fake Punt
Sam Irwin-Hill is Arkansas' "punter from down under," but the former Australian footy player showed a bit of his old skills during a 51-yard fake punt rush for touchdown that put the Razorbacks up on the highly-favored Texas A & M Aggies....
Arkansas Player Hit In Face By Errant Pass While Watching Jumbotron
The gigantic video board at Jerry World has claimed another victim: this Arkansas player, who while sitting on the bench was staring up at it while an errant (or, maybe, thrown away) pass headed directly toward his face....
Northwestern CB Matthew Harris Carted Off After Helmet-To-Helmet Hit
It was another scary reminder of the dangers college football players face on a weekly basis, as Northwestern defensive back Matthew Harris lay motionless on the turf for several minutes following a helmet-to-helmet collision with Penn State quarterback Christian Hackenberg....
Officials Botch Blocked Punt In UTEP-KSU, Spend 12 Minutes Not Fixing
This is one of the more bizarre plays you'll see today. Kansas State blocked its second UTEP punt of the first quarter, only to see the entire play called back due to an inadvertent whistle. And it took 12 minutes—12 minutes!—for officials to realize and then verify that they screwed up....
Today's College Football Viewing Schedule
Recommended games are bolded, and today, those are few and far between. I feel like I've even been generous with my bolding. There are zero games today featuring two ranked teams, and and if you need further evidence of the lackluster nature of today's slate, Syracuse is playing in primetime on ABC....
Baseball Player Tears ACL On Homer, Hops On One Foot Around Bases
York Revolution center fielder Sean Smith hit a game-tying home run in the eighth inning for his independent-league team last night, but slipped on first base and tore his ACL. Smith refused to get help from anyone, however; he got on one foot and hopped the rest of the way....
