The Student Section Supports: Arkansas @ Florida

The Student Section Supports: Arkansas @ Florida

Probably one of my favorite things about running this site, "The Student Section Supports" highlights one game each weekend that is under the national radar and/or has high upset potential. When: Saturday, 2 ET. ARKANSAS (12-3): The Hogs have one of the great players in the country, in terms of "watchability", if you will, in point guard Courtney Fortson. Fortson is making the days of Sonny Weems seem like an extremely distant ... Read More

The Daily Quickie Dude Gets It Right

The Daily Quickie Dude Gets It Right

Dan Shanoff is a very concise and succinct writer—I read his stuff every day because of it. He used to doing his thing over at espn.com's Page 2 (if the name is ringing a bell), but now runs danshanoff.com, which has a format very similar to the one he formerly did. Anyway, amidst the wretched we'll-make-up-for-this-since-he-never-got-voted-for-it-in-the-'90's choice of Brett Favre for Sports Illustrated's Sportsman of the Year, Shanoff picks the ... Read More
