It appears images from EA Sports’ upcoming college football video game have hit the web.
“College Football 25” is expected to hit shelves at some point in July, and it will be the first college football video game in 11 years.
The last one – “NCAA Football 14” – was released summer 2013, and then the franchise came crashing down over issues involving player image and likeness without compensation.
Thanks to NIL, that’s no longer a concern and roughly 10,000 players have already opted into the new game.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. — We witnessed a shift in the Alabama men’s basketball team on Thursday night against UNC. And it came at the half because it’s all the post-game personnel wanted to talk about when mourning the one-seeded Tar Heels’ two-point loss, 89-87, to Nate Oats’ Crimson Tide in a much-discussed Sweet Sixteen battle.
UNC took the lead, 54-46, and the momentum into the break, which all followed the script people had for the Tide.

What’s life like on the road for NBA players? Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner break it down.
The life of an NBA player is adjusting to your home away from home not being one single place, but rather a whirlwind trip around America collectively known as “the road.” This week Andre Iguodala and Evan Turner sat down on The Point Forward Podcast to discuss what life was like on the road, and more specifically how players would hang on the schedule in preparation for travel to some of their favorite spots.

As long as the franchise holds onto the pick, it’s safe to assume that the Washington Commanders will be selecting a quarterback second overall in the upcoming NFL Draft. Who that quarterback may be is largely still in question, but LSU head coach may have revealed that Jayden Daniels will be the QB to have his name called.
During LSU’s recent pro day where Daniels impressed, Kelly spoke to the media about his now-former quarterbacks’ abilities on the field. After hyping the Heisman Trophy winner up, he mentioned Washington by name.

The Tampa Bay Rays clearly have a much lower standard of excellence than most teams in the MLB.
Before their Opening Day matchup against the Toronto Blue Jays, the team’s PA announcer asked for the fans to look towards the banner section of Tropicana Field. The team had planned to unfurl a banner celebrating their 2023 season.
Now if you remember how 2023 unfolded for the Rays, it wasn’t anything extraordinary. They didn’t win the division (the Baltimore Orioles shocked everyone by doing that).

Here’s a look at where the bracket stands in the 2024 men’s NCAA tournament.
The 2024 men’s NCAA Tournament has been a wild one to watch unfold, and with 16 teams left vying for the trophy, the games have been tighter and more intense. The dance rolls on for No. 6 seed Clemson, who knocked off No. 2 seed Arizona in a thriller. The Tigers will now face No. 4 seed Alabama after the Crimson Tide pulled an upset over No. 1 seed North Carolina in the Sweet 16 on Thursday night in what might have been the best game of the tournament so far.

And just like that, we have one fewer 1-seed and 2-seed. While the West was upset, UConn continued to dominate the East and Illinois moved on.

The Huskies are making it look easy in their quest to win back-to-back NCAA titles.

Ronda Rousey is sharing new details that you’ve never heard before about what ultimately led to her UFC downfall.
In a new interview, Rousey says that she had been suffering from multiple concussions dating back to her judo years and that the effects of them eventually caught up to her in the UFC. 
“It got to the point where if I was getting touched at all, if I was getting jabbed, I was starting to get concussion symptoms and I couldn’t tell my coach about it,” Rousey told Cageside Seats.”I couldn’t tell Dana White about it because they would retire me.
