NEW HAVEN, Conn. — Harvard vs. Yale is one of the longest-running rivalries in American college football with the two schools meeting for the 139th time on Saturday in southern Connecticut.
Known simple as “The Game,” the rivalry takes on new meaning with the recent outbreak of far-left politics across college campuses in the United States.
Having recently spent time on the Harvard campus, I came into the day expecting to see more political messaging and demonstrating on Yale’s campus leading up to Saturday’s match.
I was pleasantly surprised.

“The Boston Bruins are aware of an incident involving Milan Lucic Friday evening.

The Michigan Wolverines accepted the Big 10’s three-game suspension of head coach Jim Harbaugh. But Roman Wilson hasn’t given up supporting his coach.
Before today’s matchup against the Maryland Terrapins, the Wolverines’ leading receiver wore a t-shirt with the message “Free Harbaugh” inscribed on it. This comes just two days after the university dropped its appeal to let Harbaugh coach for the remainder of the regular season.

Most people would probably agree you shouldn’t choke out your opponent during a basketball game. But Shaquille O’Neal is not most people.
In fact, the former NBA big man said he’d do it, too, if it meant helping out a teammate.
Golden State Warriors forward Draymond Green is serving a five-game suspension by the NBA after putting Minnesota Timberwolves center Rudy Gobert in a chokehold Tuesday night.
The altercation started when Warriors star Klay Thompson got tangled up with Timberwolves forward Jaden McDaniels. Tied at 0-0, it was the only action happening during the game.
The Eagles released former first-round pick Bernard Williams on Thursday after the offensive tackle spent nearly three decades on the NFL’s suspended list.
Williams, who was selected with the No. 14 in the 1994 NFL draft, has not played in a game since Christmas Eve in ’94 when the Eagles lost to the Bengals, 33-30. In July ’95, the league suspended Williams for six games after he tested positive for marijuana. Three months later, he was suspended for the remainder of the season, and he never played in another NFL game.

Here are the big questions that will be answered in the Las Vegas Grand Prix
Barring any last-minute penalties, the grid is set for the inaugural Las Vegas Grand Prix.
Ferrari showed their power on Friday night, as Charles Leclerc and Carlos Sainz Jr. finished one-two at the front of the field. However, a ten-place grid penalty handed down to Sainz as a result of a collision with a loose manhole cover in FP1 — a rather unfair penalty that the FIA would be smart to revisit for next season — denied Ferrari their front-row lockout.
LSU women’s basketball star Angel Reese took some time to smell the roses on social media during her ongoing — and mysterious — suspension.
For those who missed it — and OutKick didn’t because we have Glenn Guilbeau and he’s got the Baton Rouge beat on LOCKDOWN — Reese has been suspended from the Tigers basketball team for reasons head coach Kim Mulkey weirdly wouldn’t go into after last night’s game.
Ferrari driver Charles Leclerc earned the pole position for the 2023 Las Vegas Grand Prix early Saturday morning.
Leclerc edged out Ferrari teammate Carlos Sainz, who placed second. Red Bull star Max Verstappen qualified third, while George Russell of Mercedes and Pierre Gasly of Alpine rounded out the top five.
Leclerc finished qualifying at 1:32.726, just ahead of Sainz at 1:32.770, and finished first in two of the three practice sessions as well. However, Sainz has been docked 10 spots on the grid because of an engine penalty.
So far, the Las Vegas Grand Prix weekend has been a complete disaster. Sure, turning the Strip into a racetrack looks cool, but that doesn’t mean it’s practical. And star F1 driver Max Verstappen is making his grievances known.
The 2022 world champion said Formula One was focusing too much on presenting a show rather than emphasizing the sport.
And it is one hell of a show. On Saturday night, 20 drivers will take to a 3.6-mile street circuit that runs down the world-famous Strip.
Colorado quarterback Gavin Kuld is one of two reserve signal-callers who saw playing time in the team’s 56-14 loss at Washington State on Friday night.
Kuld, the Buffaloes’ third-string quarterback, was hoping to provide a spark for the Colorado offense late in the third quarter after starting quarterback Shedeur Sanders left the game due to injury.
On third-and-nine from the Cougars’ 48-yard line, Kuld attempted threw a pass that was tipped by Cougars defensive lineman Nusi Malani. Kuld would’ve been wise to bat the ball down, but he juggled and caught it instead.
