Northwestern may not be a perineal powerhouse in college football as the small private school outside of Chicago, but come 2026, the Wildcats will be playing their home games in the most modern and state-of-the-art stadium in the country.
The Wildcats are currently having to play their home games in a makeshift ‘stadium’ that only holds around 15,000 people that also plays host to the school’s lacrosse and soccer teams as they await the new Ryan Field to be completed.

Did you expect anything different this weekend in college football? As we head down the homestretch of the regular season, there are a number of teams looking for help in their hopes of making the playoff, but as we saw on Saturday, teams like Georgia, Colorado and SMU all did their part to stay in contention.
But it wouldn’t be a chaotic weekend without some type of madness. After hanging on over the last few weeks with a number of late-game comebacks, things finally went off the rails for BYU, losing to Kansas in a pivotal Big 12 showdown.
The decision to offer Daniel Jones a contract and not Saquon Barkley has set the Giants back years.

The Detroit Lions could get star defensive end Aidan Hutchinson back if they reach the Super Bowl. He posted some rehab video that has fans fired up.
The Detroit Lions are rolling through the 2024 NFL regular season, all in spite of a critical injury loss. Defensive end Aidan Hutchinson broke his tibia in Week 6 against the Dallas Cowboys and has emergency surgery that night for the compound fracture.
Spirits sunk for the organization after the injury, but they’ve been on a roll ever since.
The news is that Daniel Jones has been benched by the New York Giants, which was expected when the salary cap said do it and coach Brian Daboll confirmed the team was considering it. But now the intrigue begins.
Because in benching Jones, the Giants are also skipping past backup Drew Lock as the next starter per multiple reports. They’re going directly to third-stringer Tommy DeVito as the starter on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
And that calls into question everything this management team does at the quarterback position.

Every time you count them out, the Steelers just keep finding a way to win.
We all know the formula for every Pittsburgh Steelers game.
The offense looks a hair above incompetent for 50 minutes, being reliant on George Pickens’ wild catches or superhuman plays by Najee Harris and Jaylen Warren. The defense looks incredible (sans a few blips), but the quarterback play is just barely above average. Kicker Chris Boswell looks like the most impressive offensive player.
And yet, they keep winning games.
The Canadian Football League is already incredibly strange when you compare it to the NFL and the vastly different rules between the two leagues. In perfect CFL fashion, the Grey Cup, the final game of the season, got off to a truly bizarre start on Sunday night when the head referee forgot the most important rule of a coin toss.
There are really only two rules of a coin toss: ask someone to call heads or tails and then toss the coin in the air. Somehow, referee Ben Major forgot the first rule.
Just 31 teams have been eliminated from bowl contention.
