The whole “CalExit” secession movement might be dead for the time being, but California’s radical leftist political class remains intent on separating their state from the rest of the U.S. in every way imaginable. Despite being so near insolvency that Governor Jerry Brown has had to beg the federal government for massive monetary assistance no fewer than four times during the first half of 2017, the state’s Attorney General, the execrable Xavier Becerra, announced on Friday that he was adding four more states to California’s own travel ban. This travel ban prevents state employees from traveling to other states in...

Texas began the night 10 – 0. Their path to the Big 12 South is clear with a win against Kansas. But never count your opponent out, especially when the opponent is looking to redeem themselves after a five game loosing streak. “We will see a team in here from Kansas that is excited about playing, trying to right their wrongs from over the past five weeks, and trying to get in a bowl game,” Said Coach Mack Brown. “They have us and then their rivalry game with Missouri the next week, so they have a lot to play for.”

Game 7 and the Longhorns are on the road to take on Missouri. The big questions heading into the game; are the Horns really ready; is Colt McCoy healthy? The Longhorns came into this game 6 – 0. Hoping to make it 7 – 0 with a win against Missouri. Longhorn fans were also hoping to see Colt McCoy and the Horns step it up. Although, the Longhorns won last week, fans were left feeling their Horns were not playing their best game. With the offensive game being almost non-existent in the last two outings, fans are wondering if Colt...

Early Tourneys Over the BCS? The good folks at ESPN have taken this past week and labeled it for all us college basketball fans. "Feast Week" is not only a take on our most gluttonous holiday, but it's also the first opportunity of the hoops season to handle a massive amount of rainbow shots, floor burns, and alley oops. While some of these games are scheduled beforehand, most of the interesting contests at this time happen in those delightful little "preseason" tournaments. From the heart of New York to the sands of Maui, universities send their most prolific hoopsters to...

LOS ANGELES -- Southern California believes it should be in the BCS. "I hope everyone was paying attention and saw the score," said Trojans quarterback Carson Palmer after his team's 44-13 demolition of Notre Dame on Saturday. "They need to know that we're for real now. We are definitely worthy of being a BCS team." Stop the stumping, for now. The Trojans are a BCS bowl team. Locked in, as a matter of fact, unless Miami loses its season finale to Virginia Tech. The new BCS ratings Monday will most likely show the Trojans have moved up to No. 4....
