KNOXVILLE, Tenn. – Opponents and sites for the next four seasons of Tennessee’s Southeastern Conference football schedule were unveiled by the league office Tuesday night during its 2026-29 show. The SEC announced in August it would play a nine-game conference schedule starting with the 2026 season.

Under the new format, each school will play three annual opponents focused…

The New York Giants made the inevitable decision to start rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart. Should we be surprised? No. Is the timing questionable? Yes.

The 14-year veteran’s mystifying choice to throw the football away on fourth-and-goal in the fourth quarter during the…

When Josh Heupel took over the Tennessee football program, the Vols were at one of their worst points in program history. The Vols finished with sub-.500 records in three of the previous four seasons, including one season with four wins and the 2020 season with three wins. At no point did anyone think Heupel would turn around the Vols program as quickly as he did. Heupel nearly doubled the number of wins of his predecessors over four years and completely turned around the football program. Tennessee was 20-27 in the four years before Heupel took over, and in Heupel’s first…

The New York Mets agreed to a two-year, $54 million deal with Pete Alonso last offseason, but he has a player option after this year. Alonso was in search of a long-term deal that he clearly did not find. However, after another All-Star season, and showing he can do more than just hit for power, he should be able to find a lucrative offer in free agency. Alonso is expected to opt out and should have plenty of interest this offseason. He is a fan favorite in Queens, and the Mets may not be able to keep him around with…
