Gritty, gritty win for Colorado State to advance to the Mountain West semifinals.

The Rams never trailed Nevada but never led by double figures except for 30 seconds with under 2 minutes to go. Always kept ‘em at arm’s length.

For Charlotte FC to not get a point against a 10-man Miami squad with no Messi … that’s painful.

Zaha quickly learning he’s not going to get the calls Messi does in MLS.

High Point is the first school from North Carolina to punch its ticket to the NCAA tournament this year, holding off Winthrop 81-69 to win the Big South championship.

First ever trip to the Big Dance for the Panthers.

Haven’t posted here since NYD. What did I miss?

Good morning. GTA VI comes out this year.

People couldn’t genuinely attack Travis Hunter’s character, so they moved to talking about why he shouldn’t win the Heisman. Since he won, the TH discourse now centers on attacking his girlfriend.

Idk. Maybe being obsessed with a kid barely old enough to drink isn’t healthy?

Bryce Young is HIM, y’all. All Panthers fans need to accept and embrace it.

Fantastic upset for Colorado State on the road in Reno to open Mountain West play. There you go, Rams. It’s basketball season, baby.

Wild that Indiana went 11-1 and didn’t make a bowl game. This has to be the first time in college football history that’s happened.

One of my favorite Christmas traditions is taking the family to the train and carousel at Village Park in Kannapolis. Such a wonderful atmosphere, low-cost family date night.

If you’re in this area of North Carolina, I cannot recommend it enough.

Dammit. Tonight’s episode of Shrinking hit me hard and I’m not even sure why. But man.

Finally hanging Christmas ornaments tonight.

Glad The Game Awards actually addressed the mass layoffs. The game changer award was great. Bravo.

Does Arizona State deserve a first-round bye over Boise State? No. Absolutely not.

Should Arizona State, a conference champion, be forced to play on the road in the first round? No. Absolutely not.

I think by definition of “most outstanding player,” it has to go to Hunter. He’s not the MVP, but he’s the best overall player IMO.

9-3 Alabama, a team that was walloped by 6-6 Oklahoma, has zero business being in the College Football Playoff, especially if Clemson wins tomorrow.

But, hear me out … it would be fun to watch Alabama have to play in Boise in December.

ASHTON JEANTY OH MY!

CSU volleyball’s season ends with a 3-1 loss to No. 6 Texas A&M. Rams had set point in the third and were down 14-9 in the fourth, came back to nearly hold set point at 24-23 before a challenge flipped the score in the Aggies’ favor.

One heck of a season by the Rams to get back to the NCAAs.

I want Boise State to host in the CFP so the nation can see just how good Maddux Madsen and Ashton Jeanty are.

Their stats aren’t padded because of Mountain West competition.

I’d like to know, too. I wasn’t a fan of Banks last season but last year he was able to put together pretty consistent efforts.

I’m watching Mountain West football in 4K 😍

I have thoughts on CSU firing Freddie Banks and need to put them together. Bottom line is, I don’t like it because we haven’t seen any change in the other side of the ball — where this year’s problems were.

To my CSU Rams peeps, how are you feeling about this a day later?

I’m 52 hours into Dragon Age and am convinced Taash is the best companion in the history of video games.

I’m so upset with Eddy right now missing two easy kicks

Gosh darn it, Panthers. Of all days for the most accurate kicker in NFL history to miss two easy field goals.

Y’all, Bryce Young is good and has always been good. Now he’s getting the freedom to play his way.

Miami has spent 20 years in the ACC with 0️⃣ football championships to its name.

You’ll never experience a more intense college football mid-off than when UNC and NC State meet.
