Wisconsin Badgers

The Wisconsin Badgers last season in college basketball finished with a 20-15 overall record and a 9-11 BIG10 Conference record. Wisconsin missed the NCAA Tournament and went all the way to the Final Four in the NIT Tournament before losing to the North Texas Mean Green. The Badgers are looking to be better this season and get back to the NCAA Tournament. They have not been in the Final Four since 2015, when they knocked off the undefeated Kentucky Wildcats and then lost in the National Championship Game to the Duke Blue Devils. Before the 2023-2024 college basketball season begins,…

At 1-4 on the year, Cousins is in the final year of his contract. He is 35 years old, and it appears as if the Vikings have no intentions of giving him a contract extension at the end of the season. So far in 2023, he has completed 67.2% of his passes for 1,498 yards, 14 touchdowns, and three interceptions. Kirk Cousins has not been the reason why the Vikings…

General manager Matt Arnold spoke to reporters on Tuesday during his wrap-up press conference. He told reporters, including Adam McCalvy of MLB.com: “He’s our top choice here, for sure. I want to respect Craig. I want to respect the time…

Green Bay Packers Jaire Alexander

Green Bay Packers cornerback Jaire Alexander returned on Monday night for the Green Bay Packers from a back injury, but he didn’t hold back from talking to the media in a 17-13 loss on the road against the Las Vegas Raiders. After the game was over, he stood at his locker and told the media: “Yeah I thik at this point it’s pretty obvious that the defense has to not give up any touchdowns. The offense is pretty young and they’re still figuring out their mojo. The defense, we gotta be the ones to score and stop them from scoring.”…

Green Bay Packers AJ Dillon

Green Bay Packers running back AJ Dillon got the start on Monday night after running back Aaron Jones was inactive due to a hamstring injury. This came as a surprise for the Packers, and Jones missed his third game this season. Aaron Jones not being healthy has been a big deal for this off-season. However, Dillon had his best game of the season for the Packers on Monday night against the Las Vegas Raiders despite the 17-13 loss on the road. He rushed for 76 yards on 20 carries and one touchdown. AJ Dillon scored his lone touchdown of the…

Love also rushed for 37 yards on two carries in this football game. The defense played well in this game, but it wasn’t enough for the offense to get going. Green Bay is now on a two-game losing streak, and they dropped to 2-3 on the season.…

Green Bay Packers Justin Jefferson

Green Bay Packers rival wide receiver Justin Jefferson will miss at least the next four games with a hamstring injury for the Minnesota Vikings. The plan is for him to be placed on injured reserve, according to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero. This is a huge blow for the Vikings. They are 1-4 on the season, and the Kansas City Chiefs defeated them 27-20 this past Sunday in Week 5. Minnesota’s next game will be against the Chicago Bears. ESPN’s Adam Schefter posted this tweet about Justin Jefferson. Vikings play the Bears this week, but they will be without Justin Jefferson,…

Green Bay Packers Garett Boles

The Green Bay Packers have struggled on the offensive line and could they trade for Denver Broncos left tackle Garett Boles? Denver is 1-4 on the season and they could be potential sellers once the NFL trade deadline rolls around on October 31. Even if the Packers are contending for a wild card spot this season in the NFC, they will need a left tackle for the long term because David Bakhtiari was lost for the season at left tackle. He may never play a down for the Green Bay Packers again. Boles will be under contract for another season…
