College football is back which means our unique ranking system makes a return along with our nostradamus-like upset picks. The highlight of last season was our prediction that unranked Purdue would upset number 2 Ohio State and then follow that up with week 9 where we correctly predicted every single upset. Not to toot our own horn here but upset picks are our thing and your best bet (no pun intended) is to listen to us.
Back to the ranking, week 1 did not shake up our rankings much. The only upset of the top 25 was Auburn over Oregon which means the two teams now swap spots with Auburn jumping to 11 and Oregon dropping to 16. This next week promises some upsets which means we are here to give you an edge.
Rutgers got beat up on last week after struggling out of the gate against UMass, even though Rutgers won the game the college football world was not kind to the team that won just a single game last season. There's no football reason that makes sense for this one but Rutgers over #20 Iowa. Colorado over Nebraska. Colorado is going through a little bit of a regime change with a new coach but Mel Tucker brings with him one of the most impressive resumes in all of college football.

This is not much of an upset considering Texas is at home and currently the number 10 team in the country. Texas are slowly making their way back to a championship contending program and this is the next step in that process.
The month of December is giving us non stop boxing, with an event every weekend until Christmas Day. We started this cold month hot with three world title fights on December seventh, with Richardson Hitchins (19-0, 7 KOs) defeating Liam Paro (25-1, 15 KOs) in a majority decision win to claim the IBF Super Lightweight world title in Puerto Rico....
Another MLS draft is upon us, bringing back fiery debates about whether there is still any value in the system or if it is a complete and utter waste of time. The franchises themselves have long signaled where they stand in that argument. For one, the growing trend of GMs declining to select a player prompted several changes, such as...
On November 9th, two of boxing's biggest future stars will defend their world titles at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia. Jaron "Boots" Ennis (32-0, 29 KOs) defends his IBF welterweight world title against Karen Chuhadzhyan (24-2, 13 KOs), and Jesse "Bam" Rodriguez (20-0, 13 KOs) will be defending his WBC and Ring Magazine super flyweight...
