Super Bowl

Advanced to five-straight bowl games won a conference championship in 2012 and finished third or better in the competitive Big 12 Conference in three of the last four seasons. Additionally the Wildcats have more Big 12 wins since 2011 than any other team in the conference. However the recent success should come as no surprise as Snyder took over a program in 1989 that was in the midst of a 27 game winless streak and turned it into a national contender that advanced to 11 straight bowl games and…

The Panthers sent a strong message with this move showing they will not be pushed around and/or mortgage the future success of the franchise for a player that doesn't seem to have the right mindset for this organization. Especially with just one Pro bowl season and by all accounts a questionable attitude. Prior to last year's breakout season Norman, if I recall correctly he was in the doghouse with Coach Rivera and he didn't play much his first couple of seasons. I understand a player wanting…

Have you ever scored a touchdown before? It all started on a Saturday in October on the thirty yard line of a football field. This is where I began to score my first touchdown. I'm going to tell you how it happened. First of all, it was a chilly Saturday morning in October. The game was held in Reform Alabama at G.S. SPRUILLS Football Field. Before I scored, I kept getting tackled. I would usually gain about four yards each time. Sometimes I would even loose yards. Then, on the next hand…

Last season provided more than a fair share of difficulties for the Detroit Lions running back, Ameer Abdullah. Throughout his rookie season, Abdullah was unable to secure the trust of the Lions coaching staff due to a severe case of fumbleitis. His habit of putting the ball on the ground started to create a snowball effect and both his confidence and pride began to slip away each time one his carries resulted in a fumble. Abdullah fumbled during the loss in Detroit’s 2015 season opener against…

“I thought he had a typical first day,” said Lovie Smith on 1st overall pick Jameis Winston’s first day with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. “We saw a lot of good things today.” Sure, Winston is a very talented player, a BCS National Champion, and the 2013 Heisman Trophy winner; but unfortunately the name ‘Jameis Winston’ draws to mind a lot more than his accomplishments on the field. His career has been shrouded in scandal and misbehavior since he arrived at Florida State, with the rape allegation…

Last Sunday the Buccaneers secondary just got destroyed by Case Keenum. Honestly, if I didn't know it was the Kennum playing I would have thought Peyton Manning came out of retirement to play in this game. Keenum threw for 369 yards and 3 touchdowns. The Vikings just picked apart Ryan Smith and Vernon Hargreaves all game. On the first drive, Adam Thielen just straight beat Vernon on a double move for 45-yards. That set up Dalvin cooks questionable touchdown run. Adam just ran right passed…

I was about eight years old when he was a sophomore in high school and his football career was…
