We're still several months away from the first practices of fall ball, but there are already seven teams that I believe are in a tier of their own ahead of the 2026 college football season. You can likely guess a few of them, as programs like Ohio State have become mainstays at the top of college football. But is Indiana poised to make another run in 2026? Is there another […]

Are the Stallions charging like Cherie DeVaux’s Golden Tempo? After losing four straight, Birmingham took down Orlando on Sunday afternoon at Inter&Co Stadium, leaving Storm head coach Anthony Becht standing akimbo. The St. Louis Battlehawks rocked the Louisville Kings like a GenX dad at a Flock of Seagulls concert. Louisville’s offensive line played like a monarchy in free fall, while the Battlehawks' defense looked desperate for a Derby Classic in […]

Spring football felt much quieter this time around, considering players and coaches weren't busy pulling double duty by preparing for an impending transfer portal window while also trying to improve on the field.

Texas Motor Speedway (Fort Worth, Texas) — Chase Elliott isn’t always known for being a driver who is able to win early in the season. But he’s making 2026 a year when he's capitalizing on opportunities. Elliott earned his second win of 2026.

"Whether you know it or not, we all have something in common." For the New York Mets, Boston Red Sox and Philadelphia Phillies, that's being off to cataclysmic starts. Boston (Alex Cora) and Philadelphia (Rob Thomson) have each fired their respective managers over the past week, and the Mets have lost 17 of their last 21 games, including a 12-game losing streak.
