Mississippi State's Garrett Shrader Evolves Into Human Helicopter, Fails To Convert First Down
There aren’t a lot of options in most playbooks for a fourth-and-16 situation, but that didn’t get Mississippi State out of that exact scenario late in the fourth quarter against Kansas State on Saturday.

Tariq Owens Made A Mind-Blowing Play That Shouldn't Have Counted
Texas Tech locked down Gonzaga in the second half and beat the Bulldogs 75-69 to earn a trip to the Final Four on Saturday, and one of the biggest plays of the game was a block from Red Raiders big man Tariq Owens on Gonzaga standout Rui Hachimura. Down by six with a minute to play, Hachimura got th...
Brandon Clarke's Numbers Shouldn't Be Possible
It’s something like an understatement to say that junior big man Brandon Clarke went off against Baylor during Gonzaga’s second-round 83-71 win on Saturday.

Referee Karl Hess Came Within Moments Of Catching A Swirly From A Large And Pissed-Off Head Coach
Scene-munching referee Karl Hess worked a Samford-East Tennessee State overtime game Thursday night, eventually won by ETSU, 81–72.

Texas Handler On Mad Bevo Attack: "He Was Just Going To Say Hi"
Texas defeated Georgia in the Sugar Bowl 28-21 on Tuesday night, likely thanks in large part to the intimidation provided by their mascot, a 1,600-pound steer named Bevo, against Georgia’s mascot, a 62-pound English bulldog named Uga....
Arizona State's Manny Wilkins Has Got To Stop Attempting Hurdles
Hurdles are one of the most disrespectful ways someone can get past his opponent on the football field. The move not only makes for an incredible highlight, it also makes a defender look smaller and sillier than in most other evasive maneuvers. But hurdles also carry the risk making a ball carrier ...
Here’s Bill Walton On Jay-Z, The Pacific Northwest, And Ex-Idaho Sen. Larry Craig’s “Wide Stance”
Gonzaga played Washington last night. It was a pretty good game! Rui Hachimura hit a foul-line jumper with less than a second left to give the Bulldogs the win. But, obviously, this exciting 81-79 game was overshadowed by Bill Walton’s announcing, who was working with play-by-play announcer Dave Pas...
Rui Hachimura Hit The Game-Winner For Gonzaga And Is On His Way To Being A Household Name
So...Gonzaga’s good. And you can say that without any qualifier, either: They’re not some scrappy upstarts, or even a particularly surprising national No. 1. They’re undefeated, and have come by their ranking honestly. And they feature one of the best players in the nation, Rui Hachimura. All of tho...

Stop Dropping The Fucking Ball Before The Goal Line, You Idiots
One would think that the habit of dropping the football before crossing the goal line in a real-life game would be easy enough to not develop. Yet, since DeSean Jackson’s infamous early celebration against the Cowboys in 2009—just two weeks into his NFL career—it’s been a terrible tradition that has...
