October 30, 2023 is the most unique day in the sporting calendar this year. On Monday every major sport in the United States will play for the only time this year in a sporting equinox that only occurs once in a great while. This is commonly referred to as the sports equinox.

There was a play at the beginning of the second half of Sunday’s Bengals-49ers showdown that, for the rest of us, would probably be way down the list of Cincinnati highlights from what became a revival afternoon for the AFC juggernaut. It was a run-of-the-mill second-and-9 from the San Francisco 40, the third play of the third quarter, with the visitors to Santa Clara clinging to a 14–10 lead.

The University of Houston paid homage to the city’s former NFL team, the Oilers, by sporting a similar uniform donned the “Luv Ya Blues” earlier this season.
However, the NFL is trying to put a stop to this alternate uniform after the league sent a cease-and-desist letter to the university this month, according to the Houston Chronicle’s Joseph Duarte.
