Kyle Allen's attempt to lead the Aggies to a Thanksgiving Night comeback against LSU ended when he threw an interception on what should have been a free play due to the Tigers committing offside—and SEC officials missing the call....
It's Been Five Years Since Tiger Woods's Worst Thanksgiving Ever
It's still stunning how quickly everything fell apart for the world's greatest golfer, last seen being a humorless prick. And it all began five years ago today: a car crash, and cheating allegations that spiraled into one of the biggest sports scandals we're ever likely to see....
Rick Pitino Tried His Best Not To Embarrass Savannah State
"I tried everything," Pitino said of attempting to avoid running up the score in Louisville's 87-26 win over Savannah State. "We played four white guys and an Egyptian."...
Tiger Woods, In His Own Words
So Tiger Woods is all bent out of shape about a satirical piece Dan Jenkins wrote in Golf Digest. We think Woods is a hollowed-out dummy who long ago ceased to be a human being, but we do agree with part of his criticism of Jenkins. The "fake interview" conceit is just fine, but Jenkins shouldn't ha...
Lindsey Vonn Is Just As Dumb And Humorless As Her Boyfriend Tiger Woods
Yesterday at The Players' Tribune, "Tiger Woods" "wrote" the dumbest fucking thing in response to a satirical, obviously fake piece that ran in a recent issue of Golf Digest. All Woods's blockheaded complaint did was alert the world to how much of a dense, robotic dolt he is, and now his girlfriend,...
Tennessee State Finishes Game With Only Four Players On The Court
Southern Illinois beat Tennessee State 84-67, scoring 31 of their points at the free throw line. That many fouls was a big problem for Tennessee State. Marcus Roper fouled out with 8:36 left, Demontez Loman fouled out with 5:12 left, Xavier Richards fouled out with 2:40 left, and finally Jay Harri...
Tiger Woods Melts Down Over Gentle Satire
The Players' Tribune justified its existence this afternoon when guest contributor Tiger Woods published a screeching rebuttal to a disposable piece of satire in this month's Golf Digest. Why rely on Twitter as the middleman for athletes' unhinged rants when you can get them directly from the sour...
Auburn's Fumbles Were As Costly As 204 Yards And Three TDs
Last week, Auburn forced a few turnovers late in the game to escape with a win over Ole Miss. This week Auburn had a few turnovers in critical situations in what resulted in two of the most detrimental plays of the week, according to data from fantasy sports app Pivit....
The Future Of College Football Is ... The University Of The South?
Larry Majors saunters toward Hardee-McGee Field—the oldest on-campus football stadium in the South—from the brick house his family has owned for nearly 50 years, the one so close that a rusty tackling sled practically sits in the front yard. He passes a flagpole behind the east end zone that stands ...
No. 5 Alabama Survives No. 16 LSU After Yeldon Injury And Turnover
No. 16 LSU and No. 5 Alabama played a pretty boring, low-scoring game tonight, often outdoing each other in terms of offensive ineptitude. ...
Anything Goes In The SEC, Including Depantsing
Or is it pantsing? I can never remember....
Two Fumbles In Final Moments Doom No. 3 Auburn
Auburn, so routinely a team of preposterous miracles, has just managed to bumble its way to a come-from-behind loss tonight at Jordan-Hare Stadium, where the Tigers hadn't lost since 2012. Three weeks after Alabama burned Texas A&M to the ground and salted the earth for good measure, the Aggies, los...
Auburn Attempts Field Goal At End Of Half, Gives Up Touchdown Instead
Auburn was expected to cruise past a Texas A & M team without its starting quarterback today, only to find freshman Kyle Allen throwing four touchdown passes against them in the first half and a further deficit thanks to this breakdown at the end of the half, a ten-point swing that left the intermis...
Jim Leyland Belts Out "Who's Your Daddy?"
Former Tigers manager Jim Leyland has a well-known love of singing, and it was a possible career path if that whole baseball thing hadn't worked out for him. A couple great moments of him singing have been captured on tape, like when he sang some of the Stylistics hit "Betcha by Golly, Wow" during a...
AHL Changes Rules To Stop Goalies From Flipping Their Own Nets
On Sunday, Bridgeport Sound Tigers goalie David Leggio escaped a 2-on-0 breakaway by toppling his own net, happily opting to face (and stopping) a penalty shot. Terrified that the move would inspire other netminders, the AHL has enacted a rule change....
Auburn Newspaper Defends Publishing Photo Of Laquon Treadwell's Injury
One of the most crucial and dramatic plays in college football this year also featured a season-ending injury that remains painful to look at. How do you weigh the import of the moment with sensitivity to the injured player? If you're one Alabama newspaper, you put it on the front page of the spor...
Auburn Beats Ole Miss After Winning Touchdown Wiped Away By Injury
Fourth-ranked Ole Miss appeared to have scored the winning touchdown at home against Auburn tonight with 90 seconds remaining, when Laquon Treadwell crossed the goal line. Unfortunately, Treadwell fumbled the ball before he reached the end zone—and with good reason, as the Rebels wide receiver suffe...
Was F. Scott Fitzgerald One Of Football's Greatest Innovators?
F. Scott Fitzgerald is known as one of America's greatest authors, but was he also responsible for one of football's most important strategic advances? Maybe. Possibly. Probably not. But how cool of a story would it be if he was?...
