BYU Basketball: Is Tipoff marathon a Good call?

By Jacob Sorenson I as many of you stayed up late to watch BYU lose the other night to Long Beach State. As the 11:45pm hour rolled around I was beyond giddy to see the cougars high powered offense do what it often does, and I got nothing but the opposite. The first 5 minutes looked promising. Jumping out to a 10-2 lead the cougars werent about to fail us. Oh, were we wrong. The cougars began their turnover filled night early in the first half. The count had reached more than 22 by the final buzzer and as a fan, I was outraged. "Why in the world would a game like this intrigue me to watch?" I wondered. The other overwhelming factor that led to the Cougars demise were free throws. No team in our modern basketball world can expect to miss 13 free throws and still win the game, let alone a come from behind victory. The cougars had more front iron, back iron, and air balled free throws than any other team I recall previously watching, that includes the BYU vs. UVU gam...

Undefeated...

By Shawn Harris I find it really interesting how after 4 weeks we have 6 undefeated teams. As a fan of this beautiful game there is nothing I love more than seeing the excitement of teams being undefeated but I also do not like when teams are fighting for their first win deep into the season. Those kind of seasons hurt. As a Raiders fan that seams to happen more than not. But this year for "us" and others it's different. Teams seem to be fighting a lot more. Still some inconsistency, but that always calls for some fun games. The teams who are undefeated and how they fared this week.. The New England Patriots. They had a bye, so they sit  at 3-0  on the season. Between Brady's extra motivation steaming from an, in my opinion, annoying off season that almost had him suspended. Him and Gronk this season have hooked up for already 4 touchdowns in three games. It's a duo that's hard to stop. Green Bay Packers and their super star and arguably best QB in to...

Bengals, the Revival of Dynasty

Cincinnati Bengals By Jacob Sorenson Andy Dalton has received his fair share of criticism over his short tenure in the NFL. The young TCU star struck the NFL with his fire red hair and a highly impressive start as he made the Pro Bowl in his first year in the league. His first year seemed to set a high bar and Cincinnati has advanced to a franchise record 4 playoff appearances in a row. The critical issue behind the 4 playoff appearances in a row, not a single playoff win. The Bengals have scored no more than 13 points in any of their wildcard playoff games against the Texans twice, Chargers, and Colts. The combined 43 points they have scored over a 4 game period is the lowest among all NFL teams in previous four playoff appearances.                 This dismaying statistic has led many to question the growth potential of the Bengals quarterback. Some have even claimed that he has maxed out his pot...
