There is no love lost between the JMU Dukes football team and the Appalachian State fans.
It all started last year, when ESPN’s College GameDay visited Harrisonburg, VA, to watch these two teams face off. At the time, JMU was in the middle of its best season, riding high with a 10-0 record. But then the unthinkable happened: Appalachian State spoiled the biggest event in Dukes program history with a controversial 26-23 OT win.
The two met for the first time since last year, this time in Boone, NC. Before the game even started, things were getting dicey.

Aaaaaand now, it’s time to play everyone’s favorite game…
WAS IT A DIRTY HIT OR ARE PEOPLE JUST GETTING TOO SOFT THESE DAYS?!
We can workshop the title later, but only after you take a look at this heavy hit that Colorado quarterback Shedeur Sanders was on the receiving end of a brutal hit on Saturday against Kansas.
The Colorado Buffaloes are on the road taking on Kansas at Arrowhead Stadium this week to take on the Jayhawks in what could prove to be a crucial game in Colorado’s hunt to stay in the Big 12 championship picture (but aren’t they all at this point).

The Mountain West Conference volleyball regular season came to its conclusion on Saturday. San Jose State, led by transgender player Blaire Fleming, saw everything go right, even though it did not play on the final day of the regular season. 
San Jose State finished the regular season 12-6 in conference play, with six of those victories coming via forfeit. 
Colorado State defeated Utah State on Saturday to earn the No. 1 overall seed in the Mountain West tournament with a 14-4 record in conference.

Former Giants QB Daniel Jones is expected to clear waivers Monday and have a new home on a one-year deal soon, sources told ESPN.

The Buffaloes can clinch a spot in the Big 12 title game and the Jayhawks can play spoiler again. Here’s the best from the game.

Formula 1 is taking over Las Vegas this weekend — whether that’s good or bad depends on who you ask; I’m in the good camp but I don’t have to deal with the traffic issues — and even the city’s finest are getting in on the Las Vegas Grand Prix action.
The street circuit that F1 uses features public roads including the famous Las Vegas Strip. The brave men and women who typically patrol that area work for the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department and they were on hand for some of the on-track sessions.

Calling timeout to ice the kicker backfired spectacularly on Rutgers coach Greg Schiano.

Sanders got hit low by Dean Miller.

A Jackson State Tigers basketball player decided to make a last-ditch effort to keep the Kentucky Wildcats from scoring on Friday night by hucking his shoe at one of them.
Spoiler alert: it did not work.
The Wildcats welcomed the Tigers to Rupp Arena, and I don’t know if one end of the floor is sticky or what, but when Jackson State’s Dylan Canoville made a lay-up at around halfway through the first half, he snagged himself 2 points, but was suddenly down 1 sneaker.
