Posted on January 13, 2020, by Travis Pulver Last year, all eyes were on the amazing young Trevor Lawrence and the Clemson Tigers heading into the national championship game. However, this year, Trevor Lawrence and Clemson are back in the title game. But they aren’t getting near as much attention and respect as you’d expect. […]

Posted on January 12, 2020, by Travis Pulver Expectations are never very high for the No. 6 seed in the playoffs, and they certainly weren’t too high for the Tennessee Titans when the postseason began. Following their regular-season finale win over the Houston Texans, the Titans odds hovered around +4100, second-highest among playoff-bound teams next to the […]

Posted on January 12, 2020, by Travis Pulver Heading into the divisional round weekend, the odds of winning the Super Bowl were already pretty good for the San Francisco 49ers. But after beating the Minnesota Vikings 27-10 in their game Saturday, their odds were bound to see a boost. However, what really made a difference […]

Posted on January 12, 2020, by Travis Pulver If you had asked football fans after Week 13 about the Seattle Seahawks, they would have had nothing but good things to say. After all, the team was 10-2 and fresh off a stomping of the Minnesota Vikings (37-10). Life was good. But then fast forward to […]

Posted on January 11, 2020, by Travis Pulver The Houston Texans were not supposed to beat the Kansas City Chiefs earlier this season when they did. One quarter into the game, down 17-3, it didn’t look like they were going to. But then the Texans got their act together, kept the Chiefs from getting their […]

Posted on January 6, 2020, by Travis Pulver It was the kind of stage that Kirk Cousins has not fared well on over the years—a big one. Meaningful games against notable opponents had not been kind to the Minnesota Vikings quarterback. So, when Sunday’s Wild Card game against the Saints went into overtime, Vikings fans […]

Posted on January 5, 2020, by Travis Pulver The regular season wasn’t the greatest for the New England Patriots this year. But the general assumption was that Tom Brady and Bill Belichick would figure something out for the playoffs. That’s what they always do, so why wouldn’t this season be any different? With as easy […]

Posted on January 5, 2020, by Travis Pulver It didn’t look good for the Houston Texans from the start. With how easily the Buffalo Bills moved down the field on the opening drive of the game, it looked like fans in Houston were in for a long day. The Bills quarterback, Josh Allen, to break […]

Posted on January 3, 2020, by Travis Pulver One of the many great things about the playoffs and wild card weekend is that it doesn’t matter how you get there. It only matters that you do. When the playoffs start, it is like hitting restart; the last four months do not matter. All that matters […]

Posted on January 3, 2020, by Travis Pulver Fans of the Dallas Cowboys have been waiting for Jerry Jones to make the announcement since the end of Sunday’s regular-season finale against the Washington Redskins—Jason Garrett would no longer be the head coach of the Dallas Cowboys. o But then nothing happened. No big deal. So, […]

Posted on January 1, 2020, by Travis Pulver When college football fans think about the Tennessee Volunteers and Indiana Hoosiers, well—unless they are from the home states of either school, fans don’t really think of either. Indiana is more of a basketball school, and Tennessee is the SEC’s perennial punching bag. But that wasn’t the […]

Posted on December 30, 2019, by Travis Pulver Under head coach Ken Niumatalolo, the Navy Midshipmen have been an excellent program. They hit a rough patch in the last two seasons. But with ten wins, including the first victory in four years over Army, it is safe to say the program is back among the […]

Posted on December 30, 2019, by Bryan Zarpentine With 256 regular-season games in the books, the NFL is down to the final 12 teams that have qualified for the playoffs. While there are some clear and obvious favorites, all 12 teams have a fighting chance and no team should be ruled out of winning the […]

Posted on December 29, 2019, by Travis Pulver The Miami Dolphins have been known to give the New England Patriots trouble, but usually when the Pats come down south to Miami. But with something to play for late in the season, this one should have been easy for the Patriots. That’s why oddsmakers had them […]

Posted on December 29, 2019, by Travis Pulver When it comes to college football programs, Virginia is not one that many fans are going to be aware of. Many fans probably only know them as that team that Clemson destroyed in the ACC title game. But what fans may not know is that head coach […]
