Utah versus the Pac-10 #1: Utes taste relevance with wins over Oregon & Arizona
For thirty years, Utah football was pretty much a wasteland. No coach could sustain success here and it led the program into the dire straits. Then Ron McBride took over and the entire environment on the Hill changed seemingly overnight. It was telling that, in his second game as coach, the Utes...
Utah versus the Pac-10 #2: With a kick, Utes beat Oregon State
There are special moments in sports history that are always lasting - no matter how much time passes or how many new memories are created. It's a play or an outcome that you can recite with such accuracy because, even if ten or fifteen years pass, you remember it just like yesterday. The 2008...
Rating the Mountain West Conference Coaches Part IV (final edition)
This will be the final time I rate Mountain West coaches. It's something I've done annually for four offseasons now and I'm sure I'll take it on over to the Pac-10 when we move there next year. You can view my past ratings here: 2009, 2008 and 2007. It's interesting to see how much has changed...
Who to Send to the Draft Lottery: Lists are Fun
Now that the season is over, it's time to kick it into a higher gear and get down to more pressing matters. As suggested by Jordan DaShonte Sams, I will undertake the difficult task of predicting who the Philadelphia 76ers will send to the NBA Draft Lottery on the 19th of May. If you love...
TheRoundUp: Pictures of an exhibition
Left: Jerome Dyson; Right: foolish mortals of UMass-Lowell This football bye week could not have come at a better time, because we get to spend every waking moment considering why the NCAA chose to investigate Jerome Dyson and Donnell...
Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#1) HHH vs Shawn Michaels= Street Fight= SS02
#1?!? Scandolous!!! What people forget about when they remember this match is, Michaels had been out for 4 YEARS at this point. He had retired with a badly injured back and started up his Texas Wrestling Academy, helping to break into the business Bryan Danielson among others. There was little...
Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#2) Shawn Michaels vs Razor Ramon- Intercontinental Title Ladder Match- SS95
I bet a lot of you thought this would be #1. Interestingly, this is the second face vs face match in a row on the list. How that came to be, I'll let the almighty Wiki explain: Michaels won the title off Jeff Jarrett at the In Your House 2 pay-per-view, pinning Jarrett after a superkick....
Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#3) Bret Hart vs the British Bulldog- Intercontinental Title- SS92
A ton of people will think this should have been #1. Alright, we are in the home stretch with this countdown now. Today, I will be posting #3 & #2, with #1 going up a little before tomorrow night's SUMMERSLAM. This SUMMERSLAM took place at Wembley Stadium in London on August 29, 1992, but...
Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#4) Bret Hart vs "Mr. Perfect" Curt Hennig- IC Title- SS91
Holy crap, they booked this match to go 2nd on the card?!? What many people forget about this match is, Hennig was considered a better talent than Hart at the time. The WWE thought they were taking a major chance on Bret and called on Hennig to carry Hart to a match that would make the fans take...
Greatest Summerslam Matches: (#5) Hulk Hogan vs Shawn Michaels- SS05
A match that lives on in infamy. There is really no way to describe this match and do it justice. I'm going to quote from the Slam Sports article, but I BEG anyone who hasn't watched this match to give it a shot. This is basically as close as the WWE will probably ever get to doing an indy-level...
