Corey Trivino Arrested For Groping Student, Thrown Off BU Hockey Team

By KC Downey ⋅ December 13, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Boston University men’s hockey player Corey Trivino is one of the leading scorers in Hockey East, the team’s first-line center and maybe its most valuable player. He was so good so early that he was drafted in the second round by the NHL’s New York Islanders in 2008. Now, he’s off the BU team for [...]

By Jared Ramos ⋅ December 8, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The 2011 season is now over and it is time to predict who will take home the Heisman trophy. This year was one of the craziest years for the Heisman because there were a handful of players that could have taken home the award. Without further ado the final Heisman standings: 1. Trent Richardson, RB, [...]

Basketball AP Top 25 (Week 5): Kentucky Continues to Roll

By Dan Spritz ⋅ December 7, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. Kentucky (47) Did you see the Kentucky-UNC game?!?! It was ridiculous. The amount of talent on the floor was absurd, and I was transfixed the entire time. I don’t think there’s anything I can say that’s not already been said, so I’ll leave it at this: this season I’m rooting for whatever will lead [...]

BCS Top 25 (Week 15): The Game of The Century, Part II

By Dan Spritz ⋅ December 6, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU It is not much of a stretch to say that LSU should have been losing 21-0 to Georgia in the SEC Championship. When Tyrann Mathieu returned a punt for a touchdown to make it 10-7, I knew Georgia was done. The fact that the Tigers went on to win 42-10 is a testament [...]

Bowl Fever: A Look at this Weekend’s Championship Games

By Taylor ⋅ December 2, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

With the regular season coming to a close, little has been decided in college football. Bowl games are announced Sunday night, the Heisman race is shaping up to be one of the closest in recent memory, and the national title picture is murky. But before any controversy can start after the matchups are announced, conference [...]

With only championship week left we break down the top contenders to win the Heisman. With many of the top contenders not playing this week, there is not much room for players to change voters minds. 1. Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama Last Week: 27 carries, 203 yards, 1 receiving TD Season: 263 carries, 1,583 yards, [...]

Basketball AP Top 25 (Week 4): Look Out For the Rebels

By Dan Spritz ⋅ November 29, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. Kentucky (46) The Wildcats continued to roll through significantly less talented teams last week, and that allowed them to step into the top spot after UNC lost. UK’s supremacy may not last long though – the two teams play on Saturday. 2. Ohio State (17) The Buckeyes played North Florida, VMI and Valparaiso last [...]

BCS Top 25 (Week 14): YAWN! Virginia Tech Boring at No. 5

By Dan Spritz ⋅ November 29, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU I’ve seen all I need to see from LSU. If the NCAA inexplicably decided to end the season today and crown LSU the champion, I would be completely in favor of it. The SEC Championship and BCS Championship don’t even matter to me, because I am that sure LSU is the best team [...]

Wisconsin and Penn State Clash for Big Ten Leaders Division

By Matt Goisman ⋅ November 25, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

Despite two tough-to-swallow road losses, the Wisconsin Badgers will still have a shot Saturday at the Big Ten Leaders division, the next step in their quest back to the Rose Bowl. Standing in their way: the Penn State Nittany Lions, whose players desperately want the focus on something other than former coach Jerry Sandusky and [...]

College Football Heisman Standings: Week 12

By Jared Ramos ⋅ November 25, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

The Heisman race is as tight as ever entering the final week before the conference championships. A couple familiar names have re entered the race, while the top two remain unchanged. 1. Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama Last Week: 32 carries, 175 yards, 2 TD’s Season: 236 carries, 1380 yards, 20 TD’s Trent Richardson once again [...]

[...]

Basketball AP Top 25 (Week 3): Pittsburgh Panthers Fall

By Dan Spritz ⋅ November 23, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. North Carolina (62) The Tar Heels didn’t do much this week. There were no games on aircraft carriers, just a sound victory over Mississippi Valley State, Jerry Rice’s alma mater. It wasn’t much of a test for them. 2. Kentucky The Wildcats, however, beat a really good Kansas team. They also had solid wins [...]

The BCS Top 25 (Week 13): SEC West Domination

By Dan Spritz ⋅ November 21, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

1. LSU On “Let’s give Alabama a second chance at the BCS Championship Saturday,” LSU stayed strong. I think they’re kinda decent. If anyone’s going to beat them it will be Arkansas, but at the moment I’m having trouble seeing it happen. 2. Alabama Bold statement time: an SEC West school will compete in the [...]

Eagle Has Landed: Can Boston College Do Anything Right?

By Dan Spritz ⋅ November 19, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

To be honest, I was rooting for the Eagles football team to go 1-11. When I mentioned this to friends, they jokingly responded, “What, to get the top draft pick?” While this vestige of pro sports fandom probably had more of an effect on rooting against my team than I imagine, more than anything I [...]

College Football Heisman Standings: Week 11

By Jared Ramos ⋅ November 18, 2011 ⋅ Post a comment

We are now into the home stretch of the Heisman race. At this point any of the following five candidates could take home the hardware. The slightest slip up could mean the difference in finishing first or fifth. 1. Trent Richardson, RB, Alabama Last Week: 32 carries, 127 yards, 1 TD Season: 204 carries, 1205 [...]
