Ever think about trying to double your life savings by betting it all on one game?
Here’s a look at what happened during Week 10 of the high school football season.
Getting back Blake Decker from a dislocated shoulder is huge for UNLV, and his return should open up the offense. But Boise State freshman Brett Rypien, who averages 261.2 yards passing per game, is a star in the making.
Dallas Cowboys running back Joseph Randle, who will miss Sunday’s game due to an oblique injury, might face sanctions from the NFL for violating the personal-conduct policy, multiple media outlets reported Thursday.
Bryan Harsin didn’t have to guess about the expectations at Boise State when he took over in December 2013. He not only understood them, he also lived with those expectations as a fan and then a quarterback and then as an assistant coach.
No longer is it hip to praise Peyton Manning. He looks much older now, even elderly at times, trotting onto the field as if limping with a broken hip.
It might have seemed like a rather meaningless kick to the untrained eye. But when Nick Folk lined up to try a 55-yard field goal Sunday, every bettor and bookmaker with an interest in the point-spread result watched with an intense focus.
