Upcoming Games

Yankees Fall To Indians

The New York Yankees fell 6-4 in game four of the American League Division Series. Chien-Ming Wang left in the second inning with the bases loaded, no outs and was replaced by Mike Mussina who pitched well but couldn’t pull out the win. The Indians No. 4 starter Paul Byrd pitched a great game keeping hitters off balance from the first pitch. This ends a Yankee season which was filled with ups and downs. Early in the year this Yankee team which was 14 games out of the playoff race, fought back to win the American League Wild Card. Next season awaits us with a lot of uncertainty with the possible departure of manager Joe Torre and All- Star Alex Rodriguez and the definite arrival of more superstars in New York.

Tigers Fall to Wildcats

The Tigers of Louisiana State University who were ranked as the #1 team in the nation according to the Associated Press lost their first game of the season Saturday afternoon to the No. 17 ranked Kentucky Wildcats. Kentucky who has never received the respect they deserved in the tough SEC Conference upset LSU in triple overtime 43-37. Kentucky rebounded from their only loss last week at the hands of the South Carolina Game Cocks. This loss drops LSU to 6-1 overall and 3-1 in the SEC. This win was Kentucky’s first win over a top ranked team since 1964.

Beavers Shock Bears

The California Bears were defeated today by the Beavers of Oregon State at home. The Bears who were ranked No. 2 previous to the loss came in to the game undefeated and playing well. Oregon State didn’t seem intimidated as they scored the go ahead touchdown with 8:30 remaining in the 4th quarter when Yvenson Bernard ran the ball in on 4th and 1. Kevin Riley the Bears backup quarterback held his own today and played great including the last drive until he tried to run the ball into the end zone with 12 seconds left. Down 31-28 a field goal would have tied the game up and it would have been a chip shot from such a short distance. The Bears look to bounce back next weekend when they travel to Pasadena California to play UCLA.

Trouble for Reggie Bush

Recent reports may prove that New Orleans Saints star running back Reggie Bush and his family may have received some financial benefits of at least $100,000 and probably more. If NCAA investigators can prove this report then the University of Southern California could be hit with some severe sanctions. Some reports are speculating that the Dallas Texans passed on Reggie Bush and took Mario Williams instead because of the allegations surrounding Bush around draft time over a year ago. If this is true Reggie Bush will lose his Heisman Trophy, the award given to the best player in college football.
