data-mm-id=”_f7lonfx2q”>This Saturday, the Mississippi State Bulldogs are heading into hostile territory to take on the No. 1 ranked Texas Longhorns SEC showdown at Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium. Kickoff is set for 4:15 p.m. ET and will be broadcast on the SEC Network. WATCH: Mississippi State at Texas Live | Stream free on FuboIt's been a rough few weeks for the Bulldogs. After a blowout 56-7 win over FCS Eastern Kentucky to kick off the season, they’ve hit a serious skid, dropping their last three games in a row. To make matters worse, the Bulldogs lost their starting quarterback, Blake Shapen, to a season-ending shoulder injury. Now, it's time for freshman QB Michael Van Buren Jr. to step up and make his first career start in one of the toughest environments in college football. The Longhorns have had a quarterback issue of their own, but it hasn’t slowed them down one bit. QB Quinn Ewers has been sidelined since sustaining an abdominal injury in the game against UTSA on Sept. 14. Enter Arch Manning, the young quarterback has been holding down the fort in Ewers' absence, accounting for 7 total touchdowns and 2 interceptions over the past two games.WATCH: Mississippi State at Texas Live | Stream free on FuboDate: Saturday, September 28Time: 4:15 p.m. ETTV Channel: SEC NetworkLive Stream: fuboTV (Stream free on Fubo)If you purchase a product or register for an account through one of the links on our site, we may receive compensation.

If ESPN were to pull this off, it would be considered a tremendous upgrade for an NFL broadcast, but what would be the point?With Tony Romo signing a huge new deal to stay at CBS, chasing Michaels to land Manning seems like a panic move for ESPN. Michaels turns 76 this football season. While he's the perfect age and income bracket to run for president, he's getting up there in broadcaster years. That's not to say he isn't still currently great at what he does, but ESPN doesn't need him.If Manning truly wants to call football games, he'll call football games. When he makes up his mind, ESPN can be there waiting with a Rom…

There doesn't seem to be a way around it, even if this initial wave slows. One hopes monetary pressures don't cloud judgement and force athletes back onto their playing surfaces before things are adequately safe. But who knows what the future holds — and perhaps more importantly — who can be a part of it. ESPN Sources: Attendees left Board of Governors call w/ Adam Silver today feeling positive about momentum toward an NBA return to play this season.

data-mm-id=”_ydm1qedua”>A win at Cameron Indoor is a win at Cameron Indoor. Tom Izzo is not going to apologize for his Michigan State team flying down and taking care of business, raucous sweaty crowd or not. Nonconference road wins in Durham don't just happen with Real Housewives spinoff regularity. Duke suffered only its third such defeat since 2000 at the hands of a team that lost a bonafide legend in Cassius Winston and battle-tested Swiss Army knife in Xavier Tillman. So Izzo doesn't want to hear about any asterisk. And really, it's not as though the history books need to go through the trouble of putting a game played on the first of December in full and complete context. If anything, either this entire year deserves some sort of universal asterisk or none of it do…
data-mm-id=”_2omiheh7o”>Jimmy Butler has always wanted to be a winner. So badly, in fact, that he got himself traded out of Chicago and Minnesota, then left Philadelphia of his own accord, leaving rumors of harsh leadership and locker room issues in his wake. Butler wants to win, to be known as a winner. Yet in his career, he has struggled to become that. He's had regular season success and playoff success, but failed to get past the second round in nine seasons heading into the 2019-20 campaign. Finally, though, Butler did just that. The Miami Heat, Butler's squad through-and-through, upset the Milwaukee Bucks in five games to advance to this year's Eastern Conference Finals. There's no complaining about Butler's demanding style of leadership or any locker roo…
data-mm-id=”_cynaxl2g9″>The 2020 NFL Draft class has gotten off to a good start this season. This is especially true in regards to the young wide receivers selected in the first few rounds. Justin Jefferson, Henry Ruggs, Chase Claypool, and CeeDee Lamb have all been big contributors for their respective teams after only five weeks. And that's just to name a few. It is not every year we get to see such a variety of talented receivers succeed early and often in their NFL careers. Pat McAfee, while discussing this development on his show today, posited that the young guns are more successful than their predecessors for one key reason out of all the others: a drive to create content on the 'Gram. These young receivers are absolute studs & I do believe it's because of the…
data-mm-id=”_behoahmc0″>While trade talks in Philadelphia have centered around Carson Wentz, one of Wentz's top targets is also expected to be shipped out of town this offseason. Zach Ertz, who came to represent the Eagles as much as any other player before, during and after their Super Bowl run, is on the trade block after reportedly getting into a "heated exchange" with general manager Howie Roseman last year amidst a contract dispute. The issues carried over to the regular season where Ertz had the worst season of his career, accumulating 335 yards and scoring only once in 11 games. Ertz will make $8.5 million this year but has nothing guaranteed after that. He wants a new contract and seems ready for a change of scenery too. So where is Ertz most likely to end up? Le…

Since the New England Patriots coach is not part of the NFL Coaches Association, he is not collectively bargained into the Madden franchise like every other coach in the league. Instead, he is replaced by an avatar with a fake name. This year it's Peter Gaffney, a bald guy with glasses and a beard.

data-mm-id=”_fgzvbb9i6″>The college football world is currently buzzing about the Michigan sign-stealing scandal and what it will mean for Jim Harbaugh's program. The Wolverines are currently ranked No. 2 and sit at 8-0 but every day a new headline seems to make things worse. We're here to catch you up on the latest news on the scandal. For those out of the loop, the general outline is that low-level staffer Connor Stalions allegedly masterminded an elaborate scheme to steal opponents' signs. While sign-stealing in-game is allowed in college football, attending games or practices in person and doing so is against the rules. Stalions is alleged to have broken that rule numerous times. He was suspended by the university with pay on Oct. 20. Stalions is a 2017 Naval Academy…
