Published:

Penn State WHOOPED Akron on Saturday to open up the season, and early Heisman candidate Saquon Barkley had 172 rushing yards and two touchdowns in the win. Not only is he a freak on the field, but his attitude towards the game makes me want to run through a wall with him:

A Temple University student went missing late last week, and early yesterday she was found dead…the story got a bit crazy on Sunday night when reports came out that a Lyft ride was involved. Horrible story.
Finally, to end this roundup on a more positive note, the Lehigh Valley IronPigs are just one game back in the wildcard entering Monday, which is the final day of the regular season.
FINAL, GAME 2: @IronPigs 2-0 over @swbrailriders. One LV win or Rochester loss secures IL wild-card berth
