The Power Four—SIAC, CIAA, MEAC and SWAC—are finding there is strength in working together because of their shared history, goals and issues.
Conference consortiums are nothing new in college sports. There are legitimate ones—like the Power 5 leagues, which were granted the autonomy to set some of their own rules back in 2014 by the NCAA. Then, there are the ill-fated ones, such as the Alliance, which involved the Pac-12, Big Ten and ACC and evolved out of the need to combat the SEC’s addition of Oklahoma and Texas.

It is the year 2023, but the NFL continues to make crucial field position decisions based on orange sticks and eyeballs. Sean Payton says that may not be the case much longer.
Earlier this year, the league casually revealed that there is in fact a microchip inside of the footballs. It came after Tyler Huntley had the ball knocked loose for a 99-yard fumble return touchdown during Super Wild Card weekend.
While this has apparently been the case for a few years, it was new news to the majority of fans.

Brooklyn Nets guard Cam Thomas jokingly said the phrase “no homo” during a postgame interview on Thursday night and will be losing $40,000 as a result.
After scoring 20 points in a win over the Chicago Bulls, Thomas joked that the Nets had some “good looking dudes” on their roster and quickly followed that up by saying “no homo.” The reporter picked up on the comment and said “I’m sure the league office will love that one.”
The league office did not, in fact, love that one.

The Ravens star has high expectations for his quarterback’s next contract.
In a rare situation for a team with a young franchise quarterback, Lamar Jackson and the Ravens enter the offseason with the 26-year-old former MVP set to hit unrestricted free agency. The two sides have been negotiating a deal for over a year, but so far they’ve been unable to reach an agreement.
While his recent string of late-season injuries present a concern for Baltimore, Jackson is expected to be near the top of the market for quarterbacks when he signs a deal.

Whether you’re playing a random squares template or picking specific numbers through a sportsbook, some numbers are better than others.
Among the most popular ways to have fun on Super Bowl Sunday involves grabbing a Super Bowl square run by a local bar or perhaps your office.
During my years living in Brooklyn and Staten Island, followed by four years in Villanova, Pa., and now Las Vegas, I have spent plenty of time frequenting local bars. Super Bowl squares have been a staple of my life even before I was of legal age to purchase a cocktail.

The 31-year-old opened up about the decision he faces over the next few weeks.
Star offensive tackle Taylor Lewan says he believes he will be cut by the Titans in the coming weeks, which has led him to mull over his future in football and even the possibility of retirement. 
Opening up in an exclusive interview with Jim Wyatt of TennesseeTitans.com, Lewan explained that he feels he will be released by Tennessee in a cost-saving move in a few weeks.
