James Harden Gobbled Up Steph Curry, And It Was Wonderful

Ah Geez, Steph Curry Sprained His Ankle Again

It was a day of statements, with Alabama emphatically proving they belonged in the playoff and Georgia delivering a classic 2OT win. But no statement was louder than Central Florida’s 34-27 win over No. 7 Auburn, and UCF’s players and coaches weren’t shy about making the subtext text....
