Minneapolis, M.N. ~ After their Axe-grabbing, dominating, 31-0 victory over the Minnesota Golden Gophers, the Wisconsin Badgers are going to Indianapolis to duel the Ohio State Buckeyes in the Big 10 Championship Game, next Saturday night.

Minneapolis, M.N. ~ For the first time in school history the Wisconsin Badgers are 11-0. Wisconsin has already cinched the Big 10 West and ill square of against Big 10 East winner, Ohio State in the Big 10 Championship Game. But before Ohio State, the 5th ranked Badgers need to stay focused on their rival foe, the Minnesota Golden Gophers, in the Battle for Paul Bunyan’s Axe.

Offense doesn’t show up; Packers lose 23-0

Green Bay, W.I.~  Only a game out of the NFC Playoffs, the Green Bay Packers very well should have beaten an injury ridden Baltimore Ravens squad Sunday afternoon at Lambeau Field in Green Bay, Wisconsin. After a few lackluster showings by the Green Bay defense, they played well enough to win, it was the offense that was the problem. Dom Capers unit sacked Ravens quarterback Joe Flacco three times, forced an interception in the red zone, forced seven punts ( four

Wisconsin takes care of Michigan, 24-10

Madison, W.I. ~ The fifth-ranked Wisconsin Badgers got the job done in a very Wisconsin kind of win over the #24 Michigan Wolverines. Wisconsin did not look pretty until midway through the 3rd Quarter, but QB Alex Hornibrook made some great passes and the Badgers took care of business, 24-10. In that 3rd Quarter, Wisconsin put up two touchdowns, and left leading 21-10. The win over Jim Harbaugh’s Michigan squad improved the Badgers to 11-0, and kept them in the College

Badger Football Preview : Wisconsin vs. Michigan

Madison, W.I.~  The #5 Wisconsin Badgers will play their second ranked team in as many weeks when host #24 Michigan. Last week the Badgers steam rolled the then #20 Iowa Hawkeyes 38-14. The Wisconsin defense absolutely dominated the Iowa offense, allowing just 66 total yards and no points ( the 14 points were both scored on pick-six’s from Iowa’s defense.) Now Wisconsin needs to take care of Michigan to brighten their chances of College Football Playoff. The Michigan offense has

Astros win World Series in amazing series

Los Angeles, C.A. ~  Things started off bad for the Los Angeles Dodgers in Game 7 of the World Series and the Astros never looked back, winning their first ever World Series. Yu Darvish got pulled after only 5 outs, just like he did in Game 3 in Houston, after he allowed 5 runs, 4 earned. A.J. Hinch played it extra safe on Lance McCullers and with a 5 run lead and a shutout, he was pulled in only 2.1

Wisconsin moves up to No. 4

Madison, W.I ~ Despite a lousy win over Illinois, the Wisconsin Badgers moved up to No. 4 in the AP Poll and the Amway Coaches Poll, thank to losses from Penn State and TCU. Wisconsin now sits at 8-0 and they will most likely play in the Big Ten. Alabama and Georgia are No. 1 and 2 in both polls while Ohio State jumped up to the 3rd spot after a great win over Penn State. Ohio State, Wisconsin, Penn State,

Week 8 NFL Predictions

Here are my week 8 NFL Predictions     Vikings vs. Browns This should be a very easy win for the Vikings, who are on a win streak. I do not see the 0-7 Browns winning. Vikings 28 Browns 10   Bears vs. Saints This will be a very good game. Both teams are on win streaks, the Saints are winners of four straight, the Bears, two. Chicago’s defense was lights-out last week against Carolina, scoring two defensive TD’s, so

Houston ties series in intense game

Los Angeles, C.A. ~ The Houston Astros offense finally came out of its shell  last night at Dodger Stadium against the Los Angeles Dodgers.

The Astros tied it up in 9th off of a basically automatic closer in Kenley Jansen. In the 10th inning Jose Altuve and Carlos Correa went deep back to back to put Houston

Jones emerging as top Green Bay RB

Green Bay, W.I. ~ Green Bay Packers running back Aaron Jones is emerging as the top Packers running back. After playing in 44 out of the possible 55 snaps in Green Bay’s 26-17 loss to New Orleans, it looks like he clearly now has the top running back spot on the depth chart, surpassing Ty Montgomery who played in only 7 snaps. Last season,after Eddie Lacy’s injury, Montgomery surprised many with a great second half. But this season Montgomery is only
