There’s so much parity in the NFL these days one could argue that every team is just a player or two away from being mediocre or just plain bad. Such is the case with the Pittsburgh Steelers in 2009. En route to their .500 record this season the Steelers have led in the fourth quarter of [...]

It’s hard to believe that in the over 100-year history of the Oregon and Oregon State rivalry, never before have they met with a winner takes all Rose Bowl bid on the line. Sure, they have met when either team had a chance to win and get to Pasadena but never in a de facto Pac-10 [...]
