Winners Cris Cyborg - There’s something that’s become more and more disturbing with each Cyborg fight since joining Invicta, and it’s the fact that she’s still fighting similarly-sized opponents with a degree of experience that isn’t really comparable to hers, or on her skill level. This leads to people assuming that these factors, along with her superior athleticism, will guarantee her a win. The problem here is that even though we expect her to run through opponents, the manner in which she ..>> view originalRematch with Josh Norman is Odell Beckham's chance to change perception | Duggan
EAST RUTHERFORD — Before squaring off with Josh Norman, Giants wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr. downplayed their 1-on-1 duel. "It doesn't really matter," Beckham said before adding, "There's 11 other people on the field and everyone has a 1-on-1 matchup, so no matter who you're going against, the goal is to win your matchup." Those comments were made last Dec. 17, three days before Beckham and then-Panthers cornerback Norman squared off in an infamous clash that resulted in a combined five pe..>> view originalNo. 7 Stanford scores 13 in final 24 seconds, beats UCLA 22-13

ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. — It didn’t have to end this way.In fact, it usually hasn’t.For a franchise that has struggled frequently to send off its legends and linchpins with much grace, the Red Sox (and their fans) are enjoying the most amicable goodbye with a legend since Ted Williams.Much of this has to do with the 40-year-old Ortiz dictating the timing of his exit. And a great deal has to do with the prodigious numbers he is posting during his swan song.Without the latter, we will never know if t..>> view originalWhat we learned in Week 4: Les Miles' time at LSU has run out after latest gaffe
What a way for Les Miles to end his LSU Tigers career. Les Miles produced the most Les Miles finish ever Saturday night -- that's saying something -- and it's going to finally cost him his job.Because let's be honest: It's over from here on out. The only question is the expiration date. Twelve years of mostly good fortune with clock mismanagement came home to roost as LSU (2-2) botched the waning seconds of a loss to Auburn Tigers , which won without..>> view originalWisconsin returns Michigan State fumble 66 yards for TD (0:34)

SOUTH BEND, Ind. (AP) Duke coach David Cutcliffe need not have worried about AJ Reed's confidence. After the freshman missed his first three college field goal attempts, Cutcliffe talked this week about being concerned about Reed's body language after his miss against Northwestern last week. He opted against trying for a field goal with the score tied at 28 early in the fourth quarter, explaining afterward he didn't think a field goal would be enough. But fourth-and-goal with the ball on ..>> view original
